The Reorganization Sale was the biggest.thing in the history of this store, because he deserved success.

The public gets the benefit. | And Now the Prosperity Sale Mr. Hoffman is in New York shipping brand new goods every day—buy- ing them at 50-cents on the dollar, as the manufacturers are glad to close out their stocks at this season of the year. His directions to Mr. P. F. Regan, gen- eral manager of the company, on the eve of his departure for the East, was to slaughter all spring merchandise regardless of cost. Regan says that the stuff must be sold at any old price to make room for Mr. Hoffman's big purchases which are arriving every day.
