This wide awake hustling firm of up-to-date business men found, some ten days ago that, owing to a mild winter, business had not been as good as it should have been—and in consequence they would soon be in need of 'unds. They had an enormous stock, but cash was needed worst and so the firm very promptly decid ed to lay the knife into prices and throw their stock on the market. Last Sunday morning they announced a “Money Raising Sale” and to show that they meant business they specified goods and quoted prices. The result has been exactly what the firm anticipated. Their store has been crowded from morning to night for six days. The crowds have flocked in, have examined goods and eager ly purchased, for the people know bargains when they set them. “Our sale for the past week has been all we anticipated,’ said Mr. J. B. Watters yester day. “We are rapidly exchang ing bargains for cash and whih we are raising the funds w< needed iu our business, we are f at the same time clothing multitudes.” “Our advertisement in The! Hustler-C omme” ci a 1 has brought us rich returns, and you ■ can leave it stand, unchanged, for another week. It states what we are doing and that is all that we want it to state.” “We will continue the sale for a few days longer and then will promptly shut off the slaugh ter.” A word to the wise is sufficient —so look over the Watters & Co., add and govern yourself by what you see. Now is the time to join the push. Now is the time to buy your ooy a suit at ha'f price J B Watters &Sor.
