Inches above the tide flats will be con
structed and rails placed upon it to
run cars from cuts along the line with
dirt to fill in the tldelandfc At the
commencement of construction It did
not appear that the work was of suf
ficient magnitude to complete the
line from above Point Elllce to North

traffic this summer, but the exertions

days admits of the conclusion that
no expense will he spared to have the

WE arc going to talk to you about
our great "Removal Sale"
which must come to an end soon.
If you have not already taken advan
tage of the real, genuine reductions you
had better do so at bnce.
There might be some excuse to over
look these offerings ;! the reductions ap
jte only to cheap odds and ends.
But when you are privileged to buy
new and stylish suits, overcoats, hats
shirts, trunks, etc., at from 1-5 to 1-2 off,
there is no excuse and you are the great
est loser,
Don't put it off. You will have no
right to kick when the price cutting is
over. Of course if a few dollars saved on
clothes makes no difference to you. wait,
but we're speaking to the average man
or woman who would be glad to save
money on men's or boys' clothes, which
they can use to buy groceries, shoes or
furniture with.
