Bought an immense stock for this season—no cheap junk—but garments for men and young men that are the collected efforts of the greatest of ready-to-wear clothes- makers— hand-tailored—from ‘the very best and most dependable of all wool fabrics—suits adaptable for business, social, out- ing or dress wear, in harmonious keeping with any man’s station. Styles, patterns and colorings radical or conservative, as you please. Trade has been slack, anyhow, this season. Now the landlord says: ‘Get out or be thrown out!” and out we must go. No recourse is left to us but to sell this magnificent stock for what it will bring, and stand the loss—which will be your great Space is too expe rsive to quote prices; suffice it to say this sale is of surpassing importance to every man or woman in this pair of shoes—every article of furnishings—all new, seasonable goods, at prices that make every sale ever held in Seattle fade into insignificance. You're going to get an assortment of suits in the popular shades of the time as well as the always standard and “always in deman1” blues/and blacks at prices that hardly equal the cost of the goods, to say nothing of the making. The wreckage of our plans and hopes for a successful season is complete. We must now save what we can and quit. Be on Hand Early Tomorrow We say positively that nowhere else will you find greater bargains. Remember the Place L.
