The following are a few rules which we found necessary to adopt during tho sale, and we think it best to mention them as they are directly contrary to our usual custom, Remember, however, that they will only hold during the sale, and are only adopted in the in- ::-n-ds of the public to facilitate b 38, Cases Be careful in making your purchases as no exchanges will be allowed. o Second—No allowance will be made on any kind of goods. No Samples will be cut over the counter, we should, of course, be most happy to send them by mail when requested, but to secure goodsour patrous at a distance ought to have some resident in Omaha to make a selection or rely on us to do so, As our shipping department will be tried to its utmost capa- city, and although we shall make every effurt to deliver on time, we would respectfully request that customers will take small parcels themselves, S, P.
