Testimonial
-x
It has been a pleasure to deal with the people of
Petersburg. It is a pleasure to be able to make an
affidavit like the above. The purpose of this safe
is solely of going out of business as quickly as
possible. Petersburg folks are being given the op
portunity of purchasing wonderful values at
great savings.
Honest values in merchandise cannot long be
offered at so-called one-half price, if the mer
chant expects to stay in business. 'We propose t<»
take the bunk out of such advertising practices.
Generally inferior merchandise has been imported
for the purpose of a so-called sale. Hogue &
Tveten Co. do not stoop to the practice of running
bootleg merchandise. When our stock is exhausted
we are through. The old ship goes down with the
flag flying.
There are many remarkable values left; some
complete lines, others, broken lots. I accept full
responsibility for the strong statements made in
this announcement.

Market letters received in the past two weeks
inform us that there have been sharp advances in the prices of rayon,
silk, cotton, wool, rubber and other raw materials. Naturally, these
price advances, heralding the return of better times, also mean in
creased prices in finished merchandise-Consequently we are actually
offering double values.
