The Liberty Auto Co.'s garage

Weston, conducted by O. A. Adams,
was burglarized Sunday night. The

small office safe dynamited after a
hole had been drilled in the door,
which was completely wrecked, Tha
safe was moved by the burglars into
the ladies' waiting room, evidently

for the purpose of making a quick

RE-ADJUSTMENT
s
Our doors have been thrown open to the great
est bargain event ever held in Weston. Not one
article in this great stock packed or stored away or
marked up to meet our extremely, low prices for
this sale.
All goods reduced, marked in plain figures and
just as advertised. The time is now, the place you
know. Let nothing keep you away. Inspect our
stock. The sale is general. The puny prices will
tempt you to even borrow money and come for a
new, fresh load. .
This sale ia prompted by the necessity of raising a large sumjof money.
The conditions for the past four months occasioned by the slump in the price
of grain and other commodities, has so retarded business and collections that
we have been unable to meet our obligations. ,
Every Day Unfolds LT8iv Bargains
We must raise $15,485.17. , We are willing. to sacrifice and sacrifice
' heavily that we may pay our own bills. Many of the items we cannot replace
for one-third more than we are asking, but we mustThave the money and will
continue these prices until the above amount is raised.
