ay Men ! Ho I oM ;
It's Something Everybody Should Know and if
you were not one of the many who were I
present today, then you missed some
thing and it is of this we want to tell you.
In Tuesday's Capital Journal we an
nounced, a ten days Clothing Sale be
ginning Wednesday morning and made
the prediction that it would be the
SENSATION of the season for we felt
quite sure that the rediculous prices we
quoted would make a lot of men sit up
and TAKE NOTICE. We told several
thousand men of POLK and MARION
County just WHAT we were going to
do and WHY, and they knew it was
TRUE for some, yes MANY of these
men have known this firm for THIRTY
YEARS and in fact we dare say, not a
few who read our ad have BOUGHT
their CLOTHING right here most of
the time. Well as soon as the doors
were opened all hands got busy.
Here are some of the good things
that are going like sausage and hot
cake of a cold morning.
First are a few of the rare bargains
we are giving in Clothing, for instance,
a line of ten dollar suits at $6.48, the
twelve fifty ones at $8.68, fifteen line
are $9.88, the twenty dollar suits go at
$13.48, and so on through, saving about
thirty-five cents on every dollar.
Then there are overcoats, from the
ten dollar ones at $6.98, and the twelve
fifty ones at $7.38, fifteen dollar line at
$8.68, the twenty dollar kind are $11.48,
and a few regular twenty-five values
at $13.98.
Men's extra trousers are reduced all
the way down the line in about the
same proportion. Two fifty pants are
$1.98, three fifty ones at $2.68, a line of
four dollar pants are $3.38, five and six
dollar kind are $3.73 and $4.48.
There's underwear too for men of all
sizes and any weight you may want.
French ribbed silk and wool the six
dollar kind is now $1.78 the garment,
five dollar fancy ribbed athletic neck,
the garment $1.63, and the three dollar
values go at $1.13 the garment; this is
the Coopers spring needle pink wool.
Another line of athletic neck ribbed,
our regular three dollar seller at 98c
each; Cooper Australian wool goes at
the same.

ton swiss ribbed shirts and drawers,
the seventy five cent kind are now 35c,
and Men's heavy cotton fleeced fifty

this sale 35c.
In this sale are stacks of Men's Shirts
of everv stvle and Drice. there are three
dolllar ones at $2.28, two fifty ones at
. i 1 14 1 . 1 (tit JO J 1.

fifty one at $1.13 and a line of regular
dollar values that are now only 48c;
there is a broken line of single or
double breasted Flannel Shirts that
were one fifty to three dollars now sell
ing at 78c to $1.98.
We are sole agents for the celebrated
Packard shoes for men. We also have
Men's high cut shoes and your price
will be about the right one for they
must go.
A look through the store is necessary
in order to learn the true significance
of this remarkable Sale.
On one table are a lot of odd Coats
and Vests for small men, as we have
34 and 35 sizes only; they are worth up
to Eight or Ten Dollars, marked now
$1.48; also a lot of Cotton Trousers,
sizes up to 34 waist, worth one dollar
twenty five cents they'll go at 28c.
Two dollar fifty cent Jersey Sweaters
are $1.48, and two twenty five V-Neck
Sweaters for 98c, all colors of them.
Odd Vests worth up to two dollars for
18c. Two dollar Hats for $1.12, and
another line of three dollar Hats at
$1.98. A broken line of woolen Under
wear for just 1-3 the regular price.

ty five cent ones are 18c. There are
also Men's Oxford Bags in fifteen, six

ance so 75c Tie and pin in holiday boxes
are 38c; one dollar twenty five cent Tie
in leather collar box 73c, fifty and sev
enty five cent Neckwear will be 38c, and
the twenty five and thirty five kind at
21c We might go on for there are
scores of other equally attractive bar
gains but prefer to "Show You."
Let us say in conclusion, the only
reservations made are Holeproof and
Phoenix Hosiery and Ide Collars.
