May be pretty and nice, but we can
beat any dream you have ever had
by showing you some mid summer
days realities in the way of cheap
white goods, lawns, slippers, parasols,
millinery goods, etc. Did you ever
dream that you could buy a good
figured lawn for 3cts a yard? Did you
ever dream that you could buy gran

ever dream that you could buy an
8cts printed challie for 5cts per yard?
Dii it eyer strike you in a dream that
you could buy all kinds of dry goods
a great deal cheaper at one certain
store in Raleigh than anywhere else?
No we don't suppose that such real
things as these ever entered your
head as dreams, for nothing is real in
a dream you know, and all of the
above are facts. If you should visit
oar store and examine our summer
prices, then go into some other store
and hear thtir prices, you will ask
yourself, have I been dreaming; can
it be real the extremely low prices on
