AT CAMPBELL's

THE GREATEST SALE OF THE SEASON

 

By greatest sale we mean that we will offer more really good fresh seasonable merchandise rightly priced to begin with, than will be found elsewhere.  The discounts will be the greatest we have ever given.

 

MONDAY, DECEMBER 16, TO SATURDAY, DECEMBER 22

20 TO 33 1/3 PER CENT DISCOUNT

 

Owing to the bad weather and the impassable condition of the roads during our Emergency Sale, we have deciaed (sic) to give our friends another great money saving opportunity.  The discounts will offset the recent decline in cotton and the saving will be greater than you can make by holding even if you should get 15c for it, so if you haven't the ready cash sell one bale at least and take advantage of this opportunity..

 

This sale will be strictly for cash.  No goods sent out on approval

or exchanged. 

We will not pay express charges on out of town purchases.
