O'Leary & Bowser of this city, for
the merit of an advertisement which
that firm recently had printed in the

The Bulletin" says:
On this page is reproduced a
sensational ad, because it is a good
example of what real sensational
ad should be. The head line labels
it for just what it is. The man who
wrote this ad marked it Sensation
al' because it was to- advertise a
most sensational sale.
1t has been labeled properly, as
it contains just what the label indi-
Gates sensational bargains.

livers message that actually means

Then comes the sensational
bargains Mems Black Frock
Coats out of $500 and $4,000 suits

is genuine sensation. A wonder
full reduction like this is seldom
heard of in retailing, and especially
not every day.
Mote the other bargains in the
Mems department. Three and five
dollar mems shoes for SO cents and
dollar and half and two dollar hats
for 90 cents.
Then in the ladies' department
the bargains are just as sensational.
O'Leary & Bowser of Bemidji,
Mimi, did not use a lot Of h,ck-
neyed, high sounding superlatives to
tell about what they had to offer.
They called spade a spade, a SEN
sation sensation and the ad GER
talnly struck home. And they made
good their claim, for every one of
the six bargain offers was sensa-
tion-you can even see that from the
prices quoted in the advertisement.
Unless a merchant really has
something sensational he should not
attempt to frighten the people by
asserting he is losing money and
making terrible sacrifices.
Reserve some of the superlatives
until you have a really sensational
lot of bargains then call the sale
what it really is, without a lot of
shouting, Marvellous Wonder
