SIXTH AVE, L AT BOOR-—-HUDSON TUBE AT CORNER ~ Kimball Clothes! Open Saturday Attend this great sale before it is too late. It is the sensation of the mercantile world, not only in New York City but throughout the country. While the direct benefit has been confined to the people of the City of New York and those living close enough to New York to shop here, the indirect benefit has extended pretty well all over the country. , First the “regular” stores in New York were forced to reduce prices in order to meet the competition; then out-of-town stores were compelled to reduce prices in order to meet the price reductions of New York City. So that this sale has had a far reaching effect. Tomorrow the store will be open until 10 P. M. and you will do well to attend. There are a number of small lots of merchandise, too small to warrant mention in advertisements, whichi are priced very low and which offer rich pickings for bargain hunters.
