THE OMAMA DAILY BEE: SUNRAY, SEPTEMBER 1 We've Got the Lead And We’re Going to Hold It Competition can’i touch us. Our prices are beyond their conception. By hoodwinking the public they pretend to compete with us. Butits like “monkeying with the buz-saw.” They are bound to hurt themselves. The public sooner or later gets on to their fraudulent methods and gives them a wide berth. We guarantee a saving on anything needed in our line. Handling, as we do, almost as many goods as all the houses in our line in the city ot Omaha combined, we are enabled to buy for less, and consequently to undersell d any other house. THESE ARE FACTS THAT CAN'T BE REFUTED. Buy from us once and never again will you care to buy anywhere else. - SMASHING FURNITURE PRICES= Now, hark ye, Friends —During the past few months we have been loading up tremendously with Furniture just because we could get itat about 60c on the dollar. The manufacturers had difficulty in getting money to go on with— prices kept dropping as money got tigher—and the result was that for every dollar of our good cash we bought nearly two dollar’s worth of their good furniture. The time has come tosell it, and tomorrow the sale begins. These tew items give a pretty fair idea ot the immense saving open to you. @ On Your Own Terms of Payment 60%(32:(11201'(315\?[2:5320, onr sale price «.is. $12-00 40&()(')(;”&?;(:112‘1:)::220, our saie price ....e0. $12 'OO b T ) $1-80 Solid for cash at $3.00 our sale price....oe.u. oo Solid Oak Bed Suits 3, inibg*Chai 500 Oak Center Tables € I g S el 18.00 co Diping o 7SC Sold for cash at $1.50, our sale price.....ou.. 90 Sold for cash at g30, our sale price........
