Two styles remain this evening.

We cannot promise thai both tvlU will Fifth Floor Shoes last. 'THAT'S a phrase that is becoming synonymous with bargain shoes, in the minds of our readers, and a phrase that is interchangeable with bargain shoes in this store. For nothing else than a good shoe, to be sold cheaply, is permitted in the Fifth Floor Store Sale. The difference between these shoes and the everv dav rhean shops is IT is literally Now or Never. This hackneyed expression describes to morrow so exactly that we are tempted to use it.

The oldest story is interesting wucusucuduy auuusiic. ncic is tins SLOrv that these are cheap through accident and the others are cheap through intention. The usual $2 shoe, for example, is made for a $2 shoe. The kinds we are selling for $2 are $3 grades or better. Children's shoes to day, and an interesting story: The International Library is the best collection extant of good, interesting reading.

We took a whole edition (90 car loads of books) and put it on sale at half price and on little monthly payments, if you choose. To morrow night the whole edition will be sold out, and the publishers refuse to supply any more sets except for people who live out of town and mail an order in direct response to this advertisement. No more sets at half price after to morrow, except mailorders complying with above conditions. Children's Shoes Spring Heels ki with tip; at round toes; yun otna slz. s.
