Spring is pressing forward its demands for room and for fresh stocks. They must be met at whatever sacrifice. Time is short the month is short and so prices are shortened. Substantial savings are abundant throughout the store--every purchase you make at this sale means money saved--you buy at lesser cost than at any other period. A full month would be all too little time to accomplish the complete selling of our Winter stocks hence this short month means prices reduced beyond precedent savings without parallel. This sale is a complete and sweeping clearance movement affecting all lines. FRANK A. CRAM MEN'S OVERCOATS You'll Be Surprised Live Local Copies J.
