Youths' Suits very cheap. Our Fine Diagonal Suits at 12 60 are good value at $20.- 00. No doubt about it. you come and see them and you will find a suit it will cost $30. 00 to duplicate. We came to Charlotte to inaugurate a system of merchandise based on dollars, and we not only frankly said so, but bave kept the faith to tbe best of our ability. We did not ex pect the merchants to like it. and in this our expectations have been fully realized. We expected the people to appreciate it and to sell stacks of goods, and the result has far surpass ed anything we had thought of. We are selling goods to make mon ey, as we nave told you otten. and nave not attempted to delude any body with the crj that we were giv ing away goods, for we are not. We sell goods cheap hundred of things less than jobbers sell them, and we expect to keep that up. We believe in sell ing goods cheap. It covers all our creed of mercantue faitn. it we can save you money you will buy of us. it is to your interest to do it. The cry comes .up to us that we are dim- aging the business of Charlotte. It came very strong at first. and candidly it takes nerves of steel to stand up in opposition to almost the entire mercantile interests as we have had to do in Charlotte and steadily move on, knowing no law but that of the best value for the least money, drawing the lines be tween cash and credit, letting them fall where they would.
