PRICES LOWER THAN THE LOWEST DEPTHS It will be a great sight to watch the people as they swarm this store during these 16 fast and furious sale days, gathering up the bargains. It will be even a greater pleasure to mingle with the throngs and hear them comment on the wondrful values displayed.

Everything just as advertised or we'll pay you for your time and trouble. The date is set.

A sale of this calibre is only possible by a concern doing business as The Standard Merchandise Company does. They are today one of the largest organizations in the country buying up bankrupt stocks and also jobbers of all lines of staple merchandise with headquarters at Cleveland, Ohio. In buying regular lines direct as jobbers, they save the enormous middleman's profit that 90 of the wholesale houses tack on for the average retailer. They also operate a chain of retail stores as an outlet for their merchandise. Considering everything, they have a distinct advantage over all retailers in buying all regular merchandise for less money and in buying bankrupt stocks, such as this, from the receivers of The Addison Co., they are in a position to give you values that no solvent merchant can compete with. Their amazing ability to put "nicks" into the hide of Competition has been talked over for years. Their Richmond store, known as The Railroad Store, has been a haven of refuge for the people of this and surrounding counties and as a result the Big 16 Day Sale prices are the lowest they have ever named. It is an opportunity of a lifetime that should not be overlooked. A terrifying sale, sending death and destruction to high prices, demoralizing competition and bringing thousands of new faces into the store already known and recognized as the low price leaders of Richmond. All goods in this sale at less prices than your yourself would name if you were asked to put your own price on any article. Read all the items for it is seldom you have an opportunity of attending such a collossal event. Remember 2 big stocks both complete, with no reservations, will be thrown on the market, unmercifully, unrelentingly, on the premises at such a mere trifle of its actual worth that we cannot guarantee all the items to. last the entire length of the sale. Make your plans accordingly Signed: THE KNICKERBOCKER SALES & BROKERAGE CO., Sales Promoters.

HELP WANTED Salesladies and salesmen, apply at once. No experience necessary for it does not require experience to sell goods at these prices. Come and watch this big stock gradually disappear. Come if only out of idle curiosity. Don't forget the dates. Railroad fare free at the rate of one mile per dollar purchase.
