That shirt sale which has been
on at his store for several days
will come TO a close, along about
Wednesday of this week.
The happy part of it all is, there
are plenty left for all who may
need some TO replenish their stock,
several of the lines being almost
completely full.
And just by way Of a little re-
hinder, it probably should be stat
ed right here, that you may have a
shirt worth full $3.50 for S1.15
or a shirt worth Sl.5O for So cents.
That's the Kraus Bros. way Of
doing things-this thing of giving
their patrons the best of averv-
thing in the line of the things they
