The Pasnik Company, dealers in
ready-to-wear apparel, with stores in
Norwich, Westerly. R. l., Whitman
tic and Danielson, will open a branch
store in this city, Saturday. Jan. 10,
in the store at the corner of Front
and Livery streets formerly occupied
by the City Market.
The slogan of this new store is ave
Sell For Less" The management
points to the fact that buying in
large quantities for the several stores
md paying cash. enables them to go
into the market and make purchases
at prices materially less on account of
quantity ordered. This advantage is
given to their customers in fixing the
retail prices.
The stores already established have
been most successful and the new
company hopes to merit the patronage
of the buyers of wearing apparel in
Putnam and the surrounding towns.
Visitors to the store will be made vel
come and prices will be submitted and
goods shown at request, whether
there is present intention TO pur-'
chase or not.
