BIG SALE BEGINS

At 10 O’clock.
Every Price Marked in Plain
Figures on Green Tags.
Monday morning at 10 o’clock begins unquestionably the greatest sale ever held in South Georgia. We say greatest, because the largest stock of the best
merchandise will be sold at the lowest prices. The firm of Hofmayer, Jones & Co. having dissolved, this store’s entire stock of STAPLE AND FANCY DRESS
GOODS AND TRIMMINGS, SILKS, NOVELTIES, READY-TO-WEAR, MILLINERY, FLOOR COVERINGS AND MEN’S FURNISHINGS is offered at
prices reduced from 15 to 50 per cent. Every article in the stock has the sale price marked in plain figures on a green tag or ticket.
As we go through this truly magnificent stock of splendid merchandise and see the astonishing reductions in price, it is difficult for us to keep our enthusiasm
within reasonable bounds. We scarcely see how we could exaggerate in telling you of the wonderful values of this sale. Yet for fear of seeming too enthusiastic,
we are endeavoring tp keep all of our statements so far within the bounds of fact that they will probably seem tame after you have visited the store and seen for your
self all the great money-saving possibilities of this Dissolution Sale.
WHEN ANDREW CARNEGIE GAVE THE CITY OF ALBANY $10,000 FOR A LIBRARY HE WAS HAILED AS A BENEFACTOR. IN PLACING
ON SALE OUR $73,000 STOCK AT AN AVERAGE REDUCTION OF ONE-THIRD, WE OFFER TO THE PEOPLE OF ALBANY A SAVING OF
$24,333.33. WE STATE IT IN THIS WAY IN ORDER THAT YOU MAY BE IMPRESSED'WITH THE MAGNITUDE OF THIS SALE’S POSSIBIL
ITIES.
There have been numerous special sales in South Georgia, but there has never been a sale where such big reductions were offered on high quality merchandise.
It is a fact, long recognized, that H., J. & Co.’s stock was without parallel, either as to size or quality, in South Georgia. It is this stock, fresh, elegant, immense, that
it offered at such big reductions. '
In every department there are thousands of matchless bargains. Those listed below are only enumerated as examples to give you an idea of the tempting
values.
