Throngs of interested buyers have
visited the store of NJ. Bukantz on
Cotton avenue during the three days
this week of his closing out sale. The
large stock sf dry goods, clothing and
ladies ready-to-wear are finding
ready purchasers. Mr.. Bukahtz in
speaking of it, said today:
This is really the greatest oppor-
tunity ever given the people Of this
section to buy first class, quality
goods at such remarkably low prices.
Were it not for the fact that | must
close these goods out by the first of
October | could not afford to sell
them at these prices, because to re-
place them it would be necessary for
me to pay much more for the same
goods today, some Of them having
advanced as much as 80 per cent
since the first of August"
Mr.. Bukantz says that this sale viii
continue till October l and that he
wishes to thank the people of Ameri
