Jasper County Democrat, Volume 16, Number 86, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 28 January 1914 — New Sales Record for Rensselaer. [ARTICLE]

New Sales Record for Rensselaer.

A new sales record was established last Friday and Saturday for Rensselaer, when D. A. Kloethe of Piper City, 111., who purchased the fire damaged stock of Rowles & Parker, sold at retail over SB,OOO worth of goods. People thronged the store on both days and it kept the large force of clerks busy attending to their wants. Mr. Kloethe has extensively advertised this sale and this surely demonstrates the value of advertising as a business getter.
