THE CAPE WEEKLY TRIBUNE, CAPE GIRARDEAU, MISSOURI W w . . I , ram w mmii r t; mi n. mwinmii ii n m i n iiif im i i. JP- HLW w .1.1 1 1 6IG CLEARING White Pn,v j - r-mmmer SALE J ii ; 1 1 f fe-Y.; 7 ii1 I ! TO BEGIN e-aiu urea Vf7, jv.'. -m .- immm Saturday, February 7th AND CONTINUE DURING THE FOLLOWING WEEK The remains of the Jackson store stock removed to this store will be Closed Out and all Ready-to-wear Garments for women and children will be placed on sale together with the stock of Dry Goods moved over from Jackson. On account of being pressed for more time we cannot give the list of prices, but come, you will be more than pleased with the way we are selling the goods. The bulk of this Dry Goods stock is new having been purchased from the big sales of the St. Louis wholesale houses and jobbers during the latter part of November. These goods were received at the Jackson store just before discontinuing the Jackson store and therefore the goods are new and nobby and very reasonable in price. Hence the Clearing Sale will be more interesting because of the fact that these goods were purchased at a great sacrifice, and that we are now making a big sac rifice in price in order to close out all Winter Goods and the Dry Goods stock that we may make more room for our new Spring Goods which will be arriving soon. 1 13 IL I 0 M f F f TrSl TF "vS It I I U H ff I I SJ V4T 11 O VUJ vUJ !a ii& 11 615 BROADWAY I ... , . . u I I- i V"'ir nhissc-M at Wcilcrs, l.vcs Local and Personal S ; t-i i . tiUw fr..m $i.m up. s til-Ill l' Itlilll llll tin- C.-lpi- fnr :i viit in 'li.-illrr, 'riiuril.iv I.'
