As The Stock Grows Smaller The
5
Values Grow Still Larger
WE have determined to make the last days of August RECORD BREAKERS. Everything is before the broom--shelves
must be emptied and counters cleared of cvery vestige of the present season’s stocks. No “ifs or ands” about it, the goods
must go, and we've resorted to the greatest slashing of prices in this store’s history.
Our Mr. W. A. Florence is now in the Eastern markets making purchases of fall goods. He has gone with the intention
of purchasing the best of everything and plenty of it and we MUST make room for this new stock in our store before the
goods arrive. Read these prices over carefully then come and look at the ooods.

| pneumonia, but to continue with the
Discovery. I did so and two bottles
1(-l)mpletely cured me.” Use only this
