Will Move in July Having leased the buildings formerly occupied by the Big Store, I will move as soon as the rooms can be fitted up, which will be some time in July. In making this move I will be better equipped to take care of my fast increasing business. I will have two large fronts; the Second street front for the dry goods department and the Madison street front for the grocery department. These locations are the most convenient and central in the city, the rooms being much larger and more conveniently arranged. I will be able to carry a more complete line in each department and all the tiew equipments will be used to make my NEW STORE attractive, convenient and pleasant for my customers, and nothing will be left out or undene that will help to make my store up-to-date and first-class in every respect. Yon know my reputation as a merchant, as I have been here over twenty years, and my business speaks for itself. There has been a steady increase for each year, and it has been my aim to do a fair, square honorable business, which alone can stand the test of years. Will make a clearance sale commencingJUNE 4th and continuing through the month, in which I will give you an opportunity to buy some merchandise cheap. Watch the papers for the pri -es. Thanking you all for your past liberal patronage and hoping for a continuance of the same, I am Yours Respectfully, C. F. TRUE
