— - - w »■ »» *■ Bf «■ » . » * It is a big sale—people are coming from long distances to get in on this Great Bargain Sale of high grade merchandise —The store was jammed to the doors Friday and Saturday and more than SB,OOO worth of goods were sold those two days. Bowles & Parker had a mammoth stock and it was all clean and of superior quality. It is not often that this kind of a stock is sacrificed at a reduction sale, but the stigma of “fire,” was attached to it and Bowles & Parker wanted to be relieved of it entirely and they sold it to me —D. A. Kloethe, of Piper City, 111., knowing that I would push the sale and hurry it out of the way so that their building could be repaired and they could get back in with everything new. They would not have the “fire stock” to contend with and their customers for years to come would not say “that was carried over from the fire.” My pledge is to sell the stock fast and people know when prices are placed at a reduction of from 30 to 50 per cent and they buy, buy, buy, and it saves them many dollars and dollars are worth saving—There is still $30,000 worth of merchandise and not a shopworn article in the stock and practically everything was a long distance from the flames. Not a thing wrong with it but the prejudice of some people because of the fire. Bead the prices and then visit bur store and share with the other people of Jasper and Newton and Benton and White and Pulaski counties the made possible. Don’t wait a single day to come, but start right away and get the very choice of the bargains. 1 Fares paid if you buy $25 worth or more—ls you buy $25 worth or more we will refund your railroad fare within a radius of 25 miles.
