Our annual sale from 17th to 25th was such an unqualified success that we are induced to extend the time for another week to clear up. Everything advertised will be right here. If you were well pleased with the last sale you will be better pleas ed with this one. One word of advice: Don't wait until the last day ; be on time ; let the other fellow wait till the last day; early birds get the best goods. Its a difficult matter to publish the full list or any fair proportion of the many bargains we can offer you, we want you to call and look around, its no trouble to show goods. When ever we find any goods which have been in stock one year--we pull them down and place them on the BARGAIN COUNTER at a price that will be sure to move them. Then we put our money into brand new stock for the coming season. Don't forget to shop with a written Ll SI. It saves us both a lot of time. ----u-- The members of Salem Methodist church intend holding Aeir annual tea meeting on the 27th. _We are glad to see Mrs Ostrander able to be out again.
