L lively Competition! Wipe Him Out. As competition is the life of trade, and those have recently come to Rensselaer who boastthey will “wipe out Leopold,” nothing suits me better than an opportunity to prove how much easier it is to talk than to perform in the “wiping out” business. In consequence of such threats I have determined to sell out my entire stock of Clothing, just newly bought, at less prices than any other House, let it be under whatever style it may assume in its firm name. Being so well known in this county but little need be said of my ability to do what I advertise; but one of the main features of my business is that my entire stock was bought for cash and up to the present time is unencumbered. This is sufficient to guaranty in these hard and trying times an opportunity for all to save many dollars on a suit of Clothing, for no patron of mine shall leave my store without buying, even though goods must be sold for 50 cents on the dollar. I can, shall and will do this as somebody has to be “wiped out” of the clothing trade. Now all I ask is a visit, and if you don’t feel inclined to buy of me I will at least be instrumental in posting people on low prices. “My Motto: Never Be Beaten.” Thankful for favors, I remain, As ever, Yours, A. LEOPOLD.
