Assignment.
Oar buyer has been in New York
some time and while there was able
to attend several large assignment
sales and bought a large lot of goods
at about one half price. These have
been received and we are offering
them to you at about half price. Oth
ers try to imitate but our prices are
positively the lowest. One dollar will
buy more goods from our store than
from any other store in the state.
Swindell.
The Silyer Bill.
We dn't know what congress will
do about, the silver dollar or the gold
dollar, bat we know that you can
buy more goods with either one from
our store than you can buy from any
other store in this state.
Money is scarce and times are hard
and for that reason we have made
special efforts to place goods before
you an hard time prices..
Remember we have a large stock
and you can buy anything in oar
store for about half price.
