Only Three Weeks More of Our
r
f So far our sale has oertainly . been gratifying. It has been more of a
success than we bad ever hoped for, but it only goes to show that our
many friends have learned tbat Davis Kaser's sales are bonaflde, money
saving sales. We want to espeoially thank our out-of-town customers
who responded so quickly to our call, for hundreds of our neighboring
town friends have taken advantage of our extraordinary offerings.
Everything except a few contract goods, has been includ
ed in this Sale, so no matter what you need, you
! will save money by buying this month.
Richer than ever before is the bargain picking, for tbe full of stock
in every department is well-nigh complete. Every department is full of
bright new goods, which have only been received lately, but no matter
how desirable these goods are oi how bard it will be to replace tbem, our
set policy demands that our stock must be reduced before stock-taking
time, and this year we have made greater reductions than ever because
our assortments were never before so large. If you are unable to visit
Walla Walla, write us for prices and descriptiona
