Watters X Son are Slaugh tering Prices • TURNING STOCK TO CBSH The Sacrifice Sale Will Last Only a Few More Days. I Watters & Son, the big Broad street clothiers, know exactly' how to carry out any undertak ing or enterprise in which they engage. 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 j 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 tonight for six days. The crowds have flocked in, have examined goods and eager ly purchased, for the people know bargains when they see them. “Our sale for the past week his been all we anticipated,” scid Mr. J. B. Watters yestre lay. “We are rapidly exchang ing bargains for cash and while we are raising the funds we needed in our business, we are at the same time clothing the multitudes.” “Our advertisement in The llustler-C omme»• ci a 1 ha s [ brought us rich returns, and you I can leave it stand, unchanged, for another week. It states what we are doin? and that is all that we want it to state.” “We will continue the sale for a few days longer andithen will promptly shut off the slaugh ter.” A word lo 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. A NARRO V ESCAPE. Thankful words written by Mrs. Ada E Hart, of Gro'ou, S.
