Slaughter I
in
Ladies
Cloaks
Although this has been an
unusually good cloak sen
son and we have sold hun
dreds of garments mote
than any former season,
we find upon invoicing
our stock that we have
been too greedy in buy-
and our stock much too la'ge for this late iii the season.
9 Including Ladies' Jackets and Capes, Misses and Children's
garments, we have 350 garments on hand that must be sacri
J* ficed to maintain our inflexible rule of clearing out all goods
in their season.
5 This is Your Opportunity
1
and while it means a big loss to us we shall bunch the whole1
stock of Ladies' Jackets in THREE LOTS:
1 includes all the finest high grade garments of the
season in Castor, Royal Blue and Black, made1
from the finest all wool Kersey, Crush plush and Boucle, are'
all elegantly lined with the best of Skinner Satin or Silk and
J6 the newest designs in patterns. These garments sold up to
this time at $u oo, ia.oo, 12.50, 13.50, 15.00 and
16.50. Take your choice now for
9 I are garments that we sold at $8.00, 8.50, 9.00 and
$10.00. They include a fine line similar to Lot
No. 1, but a trifle lower In quality and lining, splen
did garments good wearers we half give you these at
3
this includes everything from $5.00 to $8.00 gar
ments in Beaver, Boucle, Kersey, etc. Some are
1 lined, others not, but all are good, heavy well-made, up-to
idate garments that you would pay quickly, early in the
season more than double the price for, we now
.sell at •P3*1"
And in Capes we have Crush Plush, Kersey, Beaver, etc. that
will go at big discount prices, also children's garments at
same schedule of discounts.
mt pm^mKpr That this season we do not offer you the
S culls of the last season's bustivcs:, because
9 we have a stock now larger than our competitors start the
J* season with and not a last year's garment among them. There
is no reason why every lady and child in Delaware county
should not have a new, warm garment at the prices we are
them away for at the store of
Manchester, Iowa.
