Miner, Beal & Co. are known all over the United States as among the best, if not excelling, all other manufacturers in Boston of fine, high grade, stylish clothing for gentlemen’s use. Their business record, extending over a period of more than 25 years, during which time they have been considered pre- me(,nt]/ the leading manufacturing firm of New rnOLmd of fine clothing, is a sufficient guarantee that their wholesale stock of Men's Business and Dress Suits. which we now offer in the “Continental.” is worthy the attention of every gentleman in Omaha. This is no ordinary class of merchandise and should receive the just and careful attention which the merits of the work demand. After several days and nights of incessant labor, we have received from their manufactory this stock, and have arranged it on separate counters, apart from our regular stock in the “Con- tinental,” and shall commence the sale on Thursday morning, the 19th, at 8 o’clock. Our limited space will not permit us to give a detailed description of each lot offered. There are nearly 100 different styles of these fine business suits, and for the purpose of enabling buyers to determine the value of each lot as compared with usual prices in the ordinary course of trade, have arranged all the lots in three parallel columns. The first column gives the actual guaranteed wholesale price of Miner, Beal & Co., together with the stock lots represent- ing the g garments mentioned. The second column gives what would usu ly be the lowest retail price. The third column gives the price at which we are offering them in the Continental Clothing House, showing the actual saving that ecach customer is guarantced when purchasing from this wholesale stock. The prices marked on these goods are not fictitious values. The wholesale prices named in the first column are guaranteed by the well-known firm of Miner, Beal & Co. to be their wholesale figures. The figures in the second column we believe represent the lowest prices that these could be ordinarily bought for in retail houses throughout the United States, and the dif- ference between the prices in this column and the third column will show the actual reductions made. el S OUR BRICE, USUAL RETAIL PRICE, Miner, Beal & Co's WHOLESALE PRI/C.
