apiiM A. HOLIDAY GIFT g IO Every Purchaser on Monday AT T E GRAND SLAUGHTERING SALE! 10 Per Cent REDUCTION. This gift will be in the shape of 10 per cent reduction on goods advertised last Sunday. This means 40c. on dollar of actual cost of regular values. Unfortunately a gross error occurred in my ad vertisement on last Sunday. Instead of the sale to begin at seven o’clock in the morning, it read seven o’clock in the evening. This naturally kept hundreds of purchasers from my store, consequent ly not one-fourth of the goods were sold that would otherwise have been closed out. The season is nearing its end and au enormous stock on hand. I am forced to make goods move, and move they will if prices will do any good. Away they must go. Read and con vince yourself. This great sale will positively take place at 7o’c >ok in the morning and continue until 4 o’clock in the afternoon.
