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.
