Ladies
Of Covington and surrounding country: A
Sensational Sale of Millinery
Right in the midst of the season is something unusual, but
that is what I am offering to you at this time.
Mrs. Sherman who has been my milliner for the past
six years has a better position offered her to begin Nov.
1st and in order that she may accept the position I have
decided to close out all of the Millinery and Hair Goods
at cost before she leaves, while the goods are fresh and up
to-date in style. You can get your Winter Hat at unheard
ot prices. Now don’t think this is all talk, but come and
see for yourself, as I don’t think it would pay me to try to
get some one else to come and continue the business for
the remainder of the season and I will need the room for
my stock of Jew elry and Novelties, bought for the holidays.
Now remember it is only on the Millinery Goods that the reduction is made, while 1
have the most up-to-date and complete line of Jewelry, Cut Glass and Novelty line ever broug *
to Covington, but if you are needing anything in the Hat Line it will pay you to get it Wlt ^ n
the next few days.
This Sale Begins Today and lasts until all the MiIli D ’
ery Goods are sold. We thank the people for their liberal
patronage for the past few r months.
