It is our purpose to close out the entire line of ladies gowns, chemise, corset covers, drawers, skirts and infants dresses right away. Remember good lit! ing, well ma le garments can be had for less than the materials to make them will cost you. This op portunity should not be lost Eight of, but acted upon at once. Norris & Carter VV. II. & B. S. Tucker & Co. We will this week make it an item for one to look through our parasols. We show the novelties of this season, some are plaids, stripes, Vandyke ef fects, Stc. The prices on these styl ish goods will be so low that it will be desirable to possess one, not only for its style, but for the small cost for such an article. Our French and Scotch zephyr, ginghams, which we let go now at 15c, and are worth nearly double this price, makes them a big bar gain in the gingham stock. W H & R S Tucker & Co. What is a Bargain? We suppose that if 50 people were asked this question hardly any two would give the same answer. The word bargain, as .it is now con sidered by most persons, is a kind of combination word that can be ad justed or used in any connection with no regard whatever to its signifi cance. W e believe and hold that ' a bargain" is a tuing that is worfh its fac value, but is sold lower than its market value by some one who has been enabled by unknown circum stances to secure it for less money than others pay for the same thing. For instance, take any staple article that has a fixed price like Coats' spool thread say.- Every one sells this thread at 5c per spool. Suppose I should buy some merchant out who had failed in business and he had on hand 5,000 dozen of this cotton. He pays 45c per dozen for it and I buy it of him for 50c in the dollar, or 224c per dozen. I take that cotton and sell it for 2ic a spool. That would be a bargain, because no one else could possibly sell it for the same price. It is only the wide awake man that is on the lookout for these things that has these bargains. No man can offer you bargains bought in the regular way like every one else buys. We make it a part of our business to look up these things, therefore we can and do often offer bargains to our patrons. We say that we sell everything cheaper than any one else does. This is so because we buy and sell everything for cash, and of course we can well afford to Bell for much less profit, at Swindell's. Hardware, &c. ADJUSTABLE WIRE SCREENS FIT ALMOST ANY WINDOW LA.
