RAILROAD
NEWS.
We have lieerTreliably in
formed that the railroad will
reach Enterprise not later
than Docem'ier of the present
year.
With the advent of the
road the necessity of carrying
a large pur pi us in certain
linen of merchandise will
have been removed.
In anticipation of this we
have inaugurated a clearance
sale and have reduced prices
on every article in the store,
many of which we are selling
below actual cost.
In making this substantial
cut in prices we have a double
purpose in view, viz:
1st a reduction of a sur
pi us' in certain linee.
2nd to jet money to meet
our maturing obligations
which ate usually large at
this time of year with mer
chants doing a credit busi
ness. We will therefore continue
to sell
FOR CASH
at the cut prices which we
have been selling until such
a time when our Btock shall
be sufficiently reduced in
those lines in which a reduc
tion is demanded by chang
ing conditions.
You can save 25 per cent
by buying of us. Ask those
who have been taking ad
vantage of these sales, or
what is better come to our
tore, examine our goods, get
our prices and be convinced.
