A Great Picture Show
Next week tf ere will be nhown in
this city on Friday end Saturday a
picture that ha* attracted the atten
ion of the whole nation now for two
year*. It ia known a* the" Birth of a
Nation" and will be shown in the
Moving Picture house a* adverti»ed
elsewhere in this paper. When it
Drat came out it waa shown in the
larger cities and attracted great atten
tion. The price first charged was
high, about $2.50, and thoae who saw
it at that price were lavish in
their praise.
We feel *afe in advising all our
rountryfriends to come and *ee thi*
great work of art next week.
This is no ordinary moving picture
show. To give eome idea of the im
menaity if the performance it has a
company of thirty or mora people who
travel in their own npecial car and re
main here during the time the picture
is shown. They furnish a band ?f
many instruments, and the music that
sccompaniee the picture is of a high
order and well worth the price charg
ed. Behind the curtain there are un
seen actor* who aid in making the
picture real by noise and acting that is
in harmony with the picture as it ia
developed on the screen. Thus an ef
fect is made the like of which has nev
er before been produced on any stage
apart from this great performance.

NEW GOODS!
On account of the unusual large business we have had this fall I was
compelled to majte the fiecond trip to New York to buy goods and I sure have
them. Brought a big lot back with me and have goods coming in on every
express. Goods are scarce and high in the Northern Market and going high
er every day but by careful looking I found a nice selection of Ladies coats
and suits at very reasonable prices.
We are in position now to serve the trade better than the first of the
season. I had learned what the public wanted and am better prepared to
serve you than before. It will be Impossible to specify exactly what we
bought but come and see our line of coats and suits and we will please you in
style and price.
*
I secured from one of the largest operators in New York twenty-five
nice up-to-date coat suits which I will be able to sell at and below actual whole
sale cost This is a rare opportunity to buy a nice suit for a little money—
something unusual at this season of the year. Every suit is strictly up to date
and no two alike. Don't fail to take advantage of this opportunity. We have
Ladies coats all new fall style ranging in price from $11.00 to $45.00. I
CiOBea out a Dig IUl UI JUBUieo an WW! OC15C ouiio luauc up I V«I 01 >—YVJ
stylish with fur trimmings and belt all around and large buckle in back which
I will sell for $11.00 per suit These are regular $15.00 suits and suits that
never would have sold at this price even when goods were the lowest There
is only a limited quantity of these so you had better come quick if you want a
suit of this kind.
We have also received another big lot of Ladies hats in ready-to-wear
and all kinds of shapes. Come in and let Miss Koontz fix you up a nice hat.
She can certainly please you.
He sure and come in and look our store over whether you buy one cent
or not Our courteous BalesLadies will take pleasure in showing you whether
you buy one penny or not
Very Respectfully
J. L. Harrison.
