This Store's Greatest
Merchandise at Reduced Prices
An extraordinary combination of circumsta nces will make this the greatest bargain-event we have ev er held I The welcome coming of Peace naturally tended
to upset conditions in the wholesale market with the result that manufacturers have been "unloading." Ever alert to serve you, we have taken full advantage of
these conditions and have made special purchase s which enable us to off er extraordinary values. ,
Then, too, our own regular stocks of Winter goods are large. The influenza epidemic last fall plus th e general effect of the war, retarded business. Our stocks
must be reduced and to quickly accomplish that en d, we have reduced prices. So this sale offers our own sto cks, as well as scores of special purchases, at less than you
could have expected to pay this season for merchandising of equal quality. The event begins tomorrow morning with every department of tne store participating.
