Our north window is full of good, high grade carpets, which must be sold during this month. Heretofore we have had a clearence sale on carpets during the month of January each year. We have decided to have this sale hereafter In June. This gives our customers the advantage at a time when it is most appreciated, being the season in which new carpets are, more in demand. It also saves carrying the pieces through the summer and fall seasons and it places the goods betore the people while the designs are new and desirable. There is a great number of pieces to close out at prices that will interest every prospective caroet buyer. $1.25 Velvet 1.00 Velvet 1 .25 Axminister 1 .00 Tapestry Brussels .70 Tapestry Brussels .75 All Wool Ingrain .60 Cotton Chain .40 Art Carpet Our prices on room size Rugs and Art Squares are the lowest in the city. .95 .75 .90 .75 .45 .60 .50 .30 j$EEmmam3Bmr I Turner Items.
