Statement in1 print concerning its methods or its merchandise,

you can depend upon that statement being backed up in

every way. We are careful here never to make statements

which cannot be backed up. Public confidence came to us

by a strict adherence to our printed promises. We make

some forceful statements in this "ad" concerning the closing

out of our SURPLUS HOLIDAY GOODS. Suppose you

- visit our; store.. and see for yourself how carefully they're

backed up.

Just One Minute More !WE desire to call your attention AGAIN to the closing

out of our SURPLUS HOLIDAY STOCK. Everything must

go regardless of cost, as it is necessary to make room for

new goods. It is true that the choicest articles were picked

.out before Christmas, but still, lots of desirable articles re-

main, and a big wave of underpricing has swept over thi>

store. Almost every department has been affected. We

:. have gone through the entire store and made prices so low

THE FITTS BEE HIVEHaving been notified on Dec. 31st to vacate and surrender, on April 1st next,

the premises; 1 now occupy, I am compelled to close out my entire stock.

In the history of our Merchandising among you, there has been many notable bar-

gain events, but we will say this to you, and we'rsay it Honestly, that no such bargain

opportunity has ever been offered to the trading public hereabouts, as this forced sale.

It isn't a "Section Sale." It isn't the advertising of a few specials here and there.

Such is the far reaching importance of this event, that every stock in the store con-

tributes its best to make it the money saving event of our whole year's career. We

have made such price reductions as will crowd the store to the very doors. Now

we ask you to carefully note these reductions. If you read, you'll investigate; if you

investigate, you'll buy, not alone for your present needs, but for a long time to come.

We must close our business out at all hazzards.

We Sta>t With The Housekeeping Goods.

The staple, always wanted goods,goeds that are always worth onehundred cents on the dollar. Nownote the price reductions and seehow thoroughly in earnest we areabout making this the most notabletale ever held in this section.

consumptive 50 and 100years ago.

Salt pork is good if a man*,!"; can stomach it. The idea

, behind it is that fat is theI food the consumptive needsmost.
