'C5*<» ' S THIS ANNOUNCEMENT is somewhat in advance to our usual custom ip announcing our January Sale, being almost a week prior to our opening day, tho reason for oUr taking , this course may be explained faom the facts that in the last ten days hundreds of requests have been made of us,- “What date would cur January Sale open?” Letters have also come by the hundreds from out of the city with this same query, remarking that our announcements here-to- fore have not reached them iu time to give them justice as patrons in.the city to attend the sale in due time. A great manv of our very best customers have personally requested us to give them a longer period prior to the opening of these sales of Ours. Nowwe have taken these many requests into grave consideration* 4 Firstly—To satisfy our patrons at large. Secondly—For the consideration to our salea-people, as this will give us one full week for preparation, avoiding the necessity of employing our help after their regular hours. We hope by doing sb the public will appreciate our efforts, Again', we deplore working our help after usual hours of labor. We believe in early closing, Wc were the first to close our store a t 6 o’clock p. m»during the summer months, viz., 8 o’clock a. m. And again, we were the first to recognize all legal holidays by closing the entire day. Why should­ n’t wc assist the public, as they assist us all they can, and they do. No doubt this preliminary' announcement of our sale will in a measure mar Our business the coming week, Yet we feel very justified iu taking tins course, especially owing to Our exceptional and very enormous business done during the holiday season, which was, plainly speaking, PHENOM­ ENAL In addition w6 feel that our January Sale will be one that we shall never regret—-the many courtesies We have extended to the public and the consideration given to our help, who displayed their willingness to serve us as well as our .patrons so graciously during the holiday season. We, therefore,* invito the public to spend any .day. or every day during the coming week'at our store, either to ptlrclms Or to ascertain tho price and value of goods now and tho prices that will prevail during the sale, as w6 adhere strictly to our announcements—everything in the store at cost, winter goods less. . . .' ■' .. v ■■*■■■■■ " Tho January Sale will he the greatest sale ever chronicled in this city nnd will surely go down in history of Dry Goods selling. , * RESPECTFULLY, T h e Kinnane Brothers . ’’ .C om p any Bushnell Building.
