Great Reduction. Having just returned from Chicago with a very large stock of Clothing, Dry Goods, Boots, Shoes, Hats, Caps, Ladies’ and Gentlemen’s Furnishing Goods, Shawls, Cloaks and Woolen Goods of every description,! am able to offer my patrons greater bargains than ever. These goods were bought for cash, and a handsome sum was saved in the discount; this enables me to compete with any body in my line of business in this part of the country. Upon goods bought at my establishment I will guarantee an actual Saving of at Least Ten Per Cent. To convince the reader of the truth of this statement the prices of a few articles are appended, and all others will correspond. Read and believe: Best genuine English Worsted Suits only $19.50 Best all wool Taft, Tweet & Co. Cassimere do 16.00 Best business Suits, $4 50to - - 10.00 Best Imperial Chinchilla Overcoats - - 16.00 Best imitation Chinchilla Overcoats $6 to 8.00 A nice School Suit $3 to - ... 8.00 Hats for Men and Boys from 25 cents to $2.50 each. Other Houses would consider them cheap at 40 cents to s3*so. These, prices cannot be beaten. Don’t be persuaded to buy before looking at my stock. I will sell the entire stock at cost and less to close it out before January Ist, 1878. It is not surprising that people complain of hard times when they persist in paying from 10 to 15 per cent, more for goods than they can buy warranted articles for, if they would trade with the subscriber. Give me a call and convince yourselves of the truth. Respectfully, /k. LS3OFGLD.
