THE AMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER: TUESDAY, OCTOBER .20, 1891.
THE RESULT,
When it was recently announced
that Thornton Wheatley’s usual
pilgrimage had been made to the
Eastern markets, the public waited
to see in these columns, the report
of what had been done for their
benefit in the way of novelties in
goods and revelations in low prices.
Al' things being now Ready v or
THE e'k .rt, the people of Americas
and the surrounding country are
invited to come. They are not ex-
S ected to have on their Wedding
Garments, for Wheatley’s is the
Place where the people must go
to be properly decked out for an
appearance, either at a feast or at
business; and nobody -can "have
the trade murk that a Perfectly
Dressed Man always bears, until
after they have been to
'Mil fnoatley’s
and have been supplied with
Letters Patent of Elegance !
By that establishment.
The Times-Recorder isn’t half
big EKeCGH to hold even a cat
alogue of the Elegant Goods, and
the Scpeb-Elegantly Low Prices
attached.
Only the general heads can here
be outlined; the true inwardness
of the feast can’t be understood
until the guests go through the
whole Bill of Fare in person nt
Wheatley’s.
No such complete and elegant
stock of
Gentlemen’s, Youths’ and
Boys’
has ever been brought to Americus
and the MOST ASTONISHING
THING about them is the LOW
PRICES!
HATS!
Stiff and crushed, that CANNOT
FAIL TO SUIT.

you go abroad and want to present
. a first-class and stylish appearance
Every Long, Lean, Fat, Short,
Big, Little Man in a dozen coun
ties can get JUST THE FIT in
the odd sizes and lengths stock
that i^cairied at / ! ; ' <
flunk Wheatley’s.
LIFE WILL BE A BURDEN
to all who Bpend their money else
where, and nnd when too late that
they missed getting the choicest
ana best bargains in the neatest
and most stylish goods ever
brought to tins market.
DON’T MAKE SUCH A MIS
TAKE, but go to Wheatley’s and
get yourself made solid.
Remember the place:
Thornton Wheatley’s Con
So-called because yon can get a
‘‘corner” for the smallest cash oon-
eet and' finest goods weiMshown in
Americus.
Yours for business,
