WONDERFUL Demand
for free Dinner SETS
The Christmas Gift at the
Palace Taxes the Capacity
of the Store in Taking
Care of Their Patrons.

The announcement last week
that The Palace Clothing Com
pany, 14th and Douglas streets,
made that they would give away
complete china dinner sets to their
patrons, called forth a remarkable
demonstration of the popularity
of this progressive clothing house.
Of the 500 sets, not one was left
at the end of the week, but this is
not surprising when you consider
that the sets were such that would
be welcomed in any house in
Omaha.
By wiring and paying a premium
The Palace managed to secure a
large shipment of sets in an even
more attractive decoration and
they invite their friends to call in
and inspect this china and see for
themselves what a splendid gift it
is.
There are no strings to the
Palace gift. A complete set is
given absolutely free to every pur-
chaser of SIS Suit or Overcoat,
and just at this time when every
one is wondering what to give for
Christmas, this offer is double well
come.
The Palace prides themselves on
giving the greatest value in Suits
and Overcoats at $15 to be found
in town, and the tremendous stock
carried gives a variety of style,
color and material that makes Sc
lection a pleasure. We venture the
prediction that The Palace will be
a mighty busy place this week.
