It is just as easy and not any more expensive to you to present you loved ones with a useful rather than a merely ornamental article
r .
and we think a careful examination of the numerous attractions at the
Ba« Hive! RFF HIVF Be« Hive!
will suggest many a good investment to you.
GRAND CLEARANCE SALE!
Will comtinue in full force till January 1st, as we are determined to convert our entire stock of Winter Goods into money. We prefer
to open a new season with new goods rather than to present a lot of stuff carried over from seasons previous and which customers recog
nize as old acquaintances as soon as they see them. If it must be, we had rather sacrifice the profit now, than to sustain a heavier loss
twelve months later. This is our idea of doing business.
we want
Every lady iu the city and vicinity to remember that our entire
line of Dress Goods is included in tnis Clearing Sale. Blaea Dress
Goods are always considered as staple as Coats’ cottou, but we do not ex
cept them and claim to show the largest line iu Amerious. We start at
12>jo an'l dont stop until we reach $1.25. Colored and fancy goods have
been materially reduced in prices. A few more Novelty Suits marked
down to actual invoice cost to close. We can do you gjood in this de
partment.
Your Trade
Will be highly appreciated and we feel contldentthat one trial will
suffice to make a regular customer of you for us. We are business men
enough to know that the better we treat you, the tinner a friend we will
make of you, and we always try to have oUr prices a little lo.wer than
thoseof other houses will be found. We still show a very large line of
Dress Trimmings, Fancy Silks, Velvets, Plushes, Braids, Buttons, etc.,
and clearing prices are the order of the day at the Bee-Hive.
YOU Will
Have observed ere now that our advertisihent are “gospel truths.”
We carefully avoid making misrepresentations or writing' misleading
“ads.” What we say wo have, we can always'show; you are not met
with a "Just out” at our store Hence you can safely depend upon the
force of the words “Clearing Sale;” we mean thereby that we desire to
clear our stock of all kinds of venter goods. Flannels, waterproofs,
jeans, blankets and comforts, lap ropes and slmular articles must be
converted into money and It low prices will do the work, our aim will be
accomplished.
Regret Rot
After it Is too late. We endeavor to enlighten you and• keep you
well posted. We believe printers ink the best medium to convey to you
the glad tidings of the many extraordinary bargains now obtainable at
onr Clearing Sale. Snoulder scarfs, large and small shawls, ladles
vests and pants, childrens vests and pants, union suits, gloves, hosiery,
corsets, ribbons, etc., to be converted into money, or at any rate, our
stock of them must be reduced, and we knew of no better way than to
urtlier reduce our already very low prices.
Qiviqg Us
A look is all we ask of you ; if we don’t make our prices right, or, iu
other words, jf we fail to sell you, it will not be our fault. Our stock is
entirely too large; we allowed ourselves to be carried away to some ex
tent by the extraordinary bright prospects of the early fall as well as by
the fact that our trade during the summer increased day by day and
bought uuusually heavy. The low price of cotton, the warm winter and
the present scarcity of money retard trade and we are not going to cry
on account of profits Bet ’em go; we mean the goods and the profits too
fl Trial
Purchase will suffice to show you that we are the Leaders of Low
Prices here. "Very small profits” has always been our motto aad to this
we attribute our success in gaining the above title. We devote the sec
ond floor of our establishment to clothing exclusively and our stock 1b
still a little too large; in fact, we would like to close out every dollars
worth of winter clothing, be it suits, pants or overcoats, and we rather
believe that we can save you some money on your purchases, if you will
take time to examlno our stock. Not a bit of trouble to show you through.
Before You
Throw this paper aside, read this "ad”oarefully. Every word of it
means money to you. It’s an easy matter to fill a page with a lot of
nonsense, but there is no nonsense about that Clearing Bale of ours.
Neckwear, socks, suspenders, shirts, collars and cufl>, childrens shoes,
ladies shoes, mens shoes, casslmers, negligee shirts, night shirts, dress
shirts, etc., have all been marked down In order to reduce stock on
hand. Bear in mind that all these goods were purchased before there
was any rise In the prices of goods and you get the benefit of tl tvoid,
low prices.
Purchase Elsewhere
Before you come to see us and a comparison of our prices with those
you have to pay elsowbere will make your head ache. Now, why do
this? Give us a look before you buy a dollars worth of your bill at
other houses, and we feel you’ll be benefltted thereby. The grand clear
ing sale will not last always; therefore delay not coming to the Bee-Hive
and make your bill with us. We will treat you square and fair, honora
bly and politely. We hold that your interest is our Interest; upon that
platform we propose to stand and respectfully solicit your patronage.

tier and better than goods another house asks $10.00 for. Does’nt this bear us out in the assertion that you can do better with us than
