IT IS SO.
Short crops, no rain, too warm
for this season of the year, lota of
dust, money scarce, cotton too low
and dull times arc the answers now
given by alt the irerclmnts, when
the “How do you do?” is given
them, but how different with the
Bargain Store men. nere goods
arrive and disappear rapidly.
On the first of September last
this new store was opened with one
of the largest stocks of Dry floods,
Clothing, Cloaks, Hats, SIiocb and
Millinery ever brought to 'Ameri
cus.
Every day since then, new and
fresh goods bought by their New
York buyer arrived, and now he
finds himself compelled to go to
New York to make bis second com
plete purchase in all lines. Nevrr
has anything happened to equal it
in the history of the Americus dry
goods trade.
The only and best reason '.hat
nan bo assigned to this extraordi
nary success, may be summed up
in the pluck and enterprise used
by tho proprietor, and the fact that
tho purchaser is not slow to find
out that here is tbe place to trade.
While other merchants have held
their goods at regular prices and
profits, he saw fit to reduce his
entire stock to such prices and
profits that would meet the approv
al of everybody and everybody’s
pocket, and succeeded with datin'
ing success. But we are not near
at tho end yet. Money is getting
scarcer daily. St-11 harder timet
are coming, and what will be the
final result is better imagined than
told.
The B-tr-jrvn Store man’s pro
gramme will be a regular march.
He proposes to march down with
the prices oi all his goods yet in
stock, in order to march to New
York with tiie proceeds to huy
goods lower than they were bought
before.
In order to raise as much money
as possible, the Bargain S'xire oilers
before bis leaving during this
week extraordinary inducements to
everybody, including country mer.
uhsuts. Goods will be sold regard,
less of cost, price or profit.

as low as possible. (A poor
