THE GREAT STOCK OF HOFMAYER, JONES & CO. Average Price Reductions 33i Per Cent. BIG SALE BEGINS rug 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.
