To Out of Town Shoppers to
Visit the City.

Special Bargains Will Be Of
: fered in All Lines.
If Successful the Effort Will
Become a Regular Event.


special Bargain Week from July 1S
to 26 inclusive, to which shoppers from
out of the city will be especially in
vited. OF course the merchants are
not going to turn down any sales to
Topekans, and will be as accommodate
ing as usual to them. But a special
invitation will be issued to the out of
town people, and the biggest kind OF
bargains are promised to them during
the week.
1.-The Topeka merchants have estab-
lished the Rebate Association in order
to place people coming from outside
the city on the same basis with the
residents" said w. w. Mills. But of
course many special sales offered by
US and Others many of which are for
only one day, cannot be utilized by
out of town people because they could
not have time to get here. So we
have thought, by cooperative ar
rangement on the part OF majority
of the merchants, to offer special at
fractions for an entire week would give
the out of town customers chance to
take advantage of sales; advantages
they have lost in the past.
IF the response is good and many
take advantage of the attractions, it
will no doubt become a feature twice
a year, once in the summer and once
in the fall"
Many Special Bargains.
eve have a large stock of new goods
we will offer at bargain prices during
the week." said A. S. Thomas of the
Santa Fe Watch company. 1--WE will
offer many special bargain in watches
and diamonds, and special attractions
in all other lines. If the out of town
people want to see what they are wear
ing in our line on Fifth avenue in New
York, they may do so by visiting our
store. We have anklets, slipper buck
les, and new Italian hligree and coral
and shell cameo that are brand new
and interesting. We also are making
chimes, and will have the new Edison
disk machines on exhibition, the latest
masterpiece. We will enter heartily
into the bargain week and will help
make in a success"
I'VE will offer special values in all
lines" declared l. w. Felix of Felix
& Sons. I'VE already have made spe-
rcial purchases from our regular manu-
facturers, cleaning up their surplus
stocks which we will be prepared to
offer at bargain prices. We are looking
forward to a very successful week, and
are entering heartily into the arrange
ments. We believe the out-of-town
visitors will find it well worth while to
come here for the sale and that they
will be able to purchase many things
prices.'
Expect Lots of People.
I'VE have not had time to make any
definite plans for the bargain week,
said j. c. Emahizer of the Emahizer-
Spielman Furniture company, but we
will make every effort to give the visitors
from outside the city something worth
while. We will cooperate heartily with
the other merchants, and We expect to
see lots of people, and to see them go
away well satisfied. We will have spe-
cial attractions in all lines, and will do
our best to satisfy And at the same
time we will not neglect our city custo-
merS."
I'VE will cooperate with the others in
the bargain week and expect to give
the out-of-town people the biggest bar
gains ever given,'' said H R. Night
ingale of Berkson Brothers. I'VE GER
tainly expect to make the week a sue
cess, and the people who come fell we'll
repaid for their trip to Topeka. Bar
gain week will be of untold advantage
both to ourselves and out-of-tOwn peo-
pie for the reason that it will enable
us to clear our stocks of spring and
summer goods. and enable our patrons
to buy wearing apparel at the lowest
prices they have ever known. We will
do everything in our power to make
the week a Success"
