Fri.

Sat. July 1O-11-12 READ CAREFULLY-THIS ONLY HAPPENS ONCE IN 25 YEARS! 25 years ago, we called 'em WHITE ELEPHANTS. (We still have a "herd" of eight or ten plaster of Paris ones in the basement). Now they're CATS AND DOGS. But no matter what we call them, they are mistakes we merchants make; the unwanted "PUPS" that don't sell.

Our collection is interesting; YOU read, we'll do the weeping. THESE GET IN TED'S HAIR There's an old wedding saying "something old, something new. etc." This trio of S60.00 wedding dresses, sizes 8-12-16 is three years old but from a distance they truly "regal." You'll have good luck in any one complete with train. Use the satin for something else if you aren't getting married just think they are only S12.95H We have put this green winter shortie coat away and pulled it out for three winters and we are about worn out. Please save our energy by buying this all wool, interlined S35.00 coat for just 58.95 that is if you are a medium size.

The doggies will bark at this a wild colored, narrow-skirted, short- sleeve crepe print dress from Klafter and Sobel (they went out of business two years ago). It was $35.00 and we've reduced it each year and today it's going to sell for just $6.95 size 12. Fido can't say anything good about ihis dress but there's nothing really wrong with it either just hasn't sold. Size red, S29.95 value for just S4.95. They say there's a customer for every dress well, we haven't found anyone who can wear this 2-piece summer linen dress.

It's a S25.00 value and we dare you to wear this size 12 style. If it fits you, for $7.00 you may carry a package home. Papa Chris doesn't know if this black creation is a suit or a dress. The dogs and cats can't tsll either. It has long sleeves and he thought it could sell for S12.95 but even the old gent can be wrong.

So Ted is going to sell it for just S3.98 size 14. Are you long-waisted? We have a Betty Rose suit made from a fine all wool piece of checked material thai even is minus a button (it's in the pocket). For three seasons we have tried to fit this to someone now it really looks like a DOG. We sew the button but we'll sell the suit, size 10, S45.00 value for just S14.95 2 3 Don't know whether we should call this fine ROSENBLUM suit a cat or a dog. It's a finely tailored garment of rayon strea, cedar color, sold in California for S35.00.

But in Iowa we are going to take just $12.95 if you wear a size 10. THE CHRISCHILLES STORE won't be buying any more unlined suits from PRINTZESS. We can't sell the ones we have. Don't look at these unless you want to have them pressed before you wear them. Six in this group aqua, pink, and navy, sizes to If you are one of the first lucky customers you can buy any of these for just S10.00.

Mr. Moth had a nice meal on these four girls coats last year. He picked two size 10 and two size 12 sizes but he ate enough after making one small hole in each coat you can hardly notice them. But for these three days our dog ROVER says "Buy these for S3.98 each." Does your girl wear a size 5, 10, or 12 dress? If so, maybe she would like a cute white which the boss said to sell for S7.95 and $8.95 but which we found to be loo high priced. Some with slips included 98c.

The girls in Kossulh County must be growing taller. Anyway these fine Exylin raincoats have been loo short to keep them dry. If you have a short girl or buy a size larger you can get a real CAT AND DOG SPECIAL here $3.95 value for just S1.50. Both Fido and Tom said not to do this but they don't listen to them on all of these bargains. Three formal party dresses pink and aqua, size 12 and 14.

This Spring they sold for $17.95 but Spring is gone. Summer here and call them either a cat or a dog if they fit, you can buy them for jusl $6.95. Also, a long sleeved dinner dress from two years ago Papa reduced it from S45.00 to S35.00. Hempy said we'd be lucky lo get $25.00 for it but Ted says sell For these three days, size 14, color blue, we are giving it up for only $12.95. Ladies pink Spring shortie-filted coal.

Last year we tried lo get luck. No luck THIS year either. Good looking, too, and all wool. How will $10.95 suit you or "coat" you? Not a real dog just a puppy. Another shortie, blue fleece, all wool, irridescent satin lined (pretty swanky) medium size, we asked $40.00 once but now we're not so su-e so take it for $19.95.

This bow-wow has been barking so long that we'll give it free to the first one who calls for it, A white, summer lace hat. (Customer must be female and over 18). IN THIS KENNEL just ten while summer hats values to $10.00 mistake goes for only 98c. Four short terry beach coals, they took 'em away from us last year --now they need a bath so we're throwing them to the dogs for only $2.91. Quilted cotton sport skirts were a hit every place but Algona.
