Vor the greater Dart of the last six months the city has practically built a wall the entrance to the store, with the consequence that over. coats, sults and other merchan- @ise bought for September and October still remain to be sold. The store tg faced by the prob- lem of trying to sell in the two remaining months of the year goods that should have been sold in six months. To try and accomplish this seemingly impossible task, Fried- man and Wolfson announce that every article in their big store will be placed on special sale Thursday morning at 9 o'clock and continued until the surplus which has accumulated duying the street blockade has been dis- posed of. They announce that all thelr standard brands of men’s overcoats, suits, under. wear end hats will be included in a determined price cutting which takes in every article in stock except a few contract goods, The store will be closed Tuesday and Wednesday tn order to mark down the stock, Full details of this big mer chandising event will be publish ed in The Star tomorrow night. All indications point to sale being one of the largest held in Seattle in years. Every article sold, even tho the price ts away below regular price, will be back- ed by the old guaranteo of the firm, “Money back if you want 1."
