A Clearance Sale
OF:
Childrens' Dresses
To Accomplish a Rapid Clearance
We Have Cut The PricesOf
These Dainty Dresses
Every child's dress in the store is included
in this extraordinary trade movement. For
some unknown reason, this has not been a
very good season for little children's dresses,
and we find ourselves with a large stock that
is not selling rapidly enough to suit us. So to
hasten their departure, we have gone through
them and cut prices away below value.
All sizes are here for children
from 2 to 4 years of age.
Note the following prices, and when you see
how handsome, and stylish and well made these
dresses are, you 11 agree that you never before
had the pleasure of partaking of such splendid
economies :
Values up to 75c at 45c.
Values up to $1.00 at 69c.
Values up to $1.50 at 99c.
Values up to $2.00 at $1.45.
Values up to $2.50 at $1.95.
Other special values in Ladies' Wear in our
Ready-to-wear Department See them.
