Our Great Complimentory Feature of this Notable Mercantile Event
100 Presents—7 Capital Prizes
WE believe that no really great event would
be complete without some special attrac
tion —and we have decided upon a unique fea
ture that we believe is going to be interesting
to all. This is not a game of chance in any
sense of the word —everything about this is
FREE TO EVERYONE. We will distribute
5000 keys, each one with a tag to it, in 7 de
partments of this store there will be boxes with
locks on them —in each box there will be certif
icates numbering 1,2, 3,4, 5,6, 7, etc. and the
first person unlocking any one box will receive
certificate No. 1 from that box calling for the
Capital prize. Then other numbers follow in
order as the different boxes are opened.
PLEASE NOTE—Don’t stop with trying just
one box, try all of them —all boxes may not ap
pear on the first day, so you will pleas • keep
your keys until you have opportunity to un
lock all 7 boxes. Of course there w ill be 4900
keys that will not get a prize, but we have ar
ranged so that each one will be of benefit to
you —you will find full particulars of this on the
tag attached to the key. We will distribute
these tags as fast as possible —many people out
side of the city we will not be able to reach but
we have reserved sufficient number of keys so
that you will be sure to find one waiting for
you when you come for it. Everybody is wel
come. We want you all to partake in the LIB
ERAL HOUSE WARMING ATTRACTIONS and

ALMOST impossible difficulties overcome.
Delay after delay in completing our new
store has pushed this great event forward two
months. Store was to be completed Septem
ber Ist—we had to move September 15th
New goods were in and checking and marking
was done along with the busy workmen. W e
have done our best to take care of the trade —
even now after two months after our original
plans—our eieva.or and cash system is just be
ing completed—so we are pleased to announce
that with the opening of this great event we
shall be in position to give you good service.
These delays have retarded business somewhat
and with $50,000.00 worth of merchandise on
our floors we are forced to make up at least
$20,000,00 worth of business in the next 30
days.
Mail orders or telephone orders will always

orders the customers will get the benefit of
