We are overstocked and are pricing at reductions that can be easily recognized and
appreciated by the purchasing public—prices that will rapidly reduce our surplus.
We have not employed a sales expert at big expense to put on a spectacular campaign
in advertising a “Big Sacrifice” or “Great Slaughter” of prices—no marking up to
make a show of big cuts. We are conducting our own sale and have tagged our stock
with prices substantially reduced. Reductions average 20 to 25 per cent. Many articles
