SEMI-ANNUAL CLEARING SALE

Prospective furniture buyers OF Omaha
seem to be alive to the opportunities Of
fered by Miller, Stewart & Beaton at their
semi-annual clearance sale. which began
last week. and will continue for the rest
Of the month. Judging by the large crowds
that attended the sale last week, and are
still flocking into the big store, taxing sd-
vantage of the many bargains offered, the
firm will have succeeded in their desire
to reduce the large stock which is neces-
sary TO make room for new goods, which
the buyers have been ordering in the east
The firm offers undisputed advantages to
prospective customers to look over the
various lines even though not quite ready
to buy. The articles which are on sale at
these big reductions are each marked with
a red tag, so that buyers themselves may
look over the stock and find something to
their liking. There are many odd pieces
offered in this sale at such an extremely
low figure that they sell at sight. These
bargains are found in every department
and persons who are in need Of furniture,
carpets, curtains, rugs, etc. should not let
this opportunity go by.
