Thanks to eyerybody who helped to make this Chrietmas sale a success,

You have given us your patronage liberally; we have given vou the best bargains ever given in the city in Christmas goodr.

We are able to do thie,becanse our immense purchases enable us to buy very low, and our Jarge sales permit of our selling on close margins.

We have given our customers the lenefitof both these ad- vantages,

Some lines went below cost,

This was necessary.

The city was too full of these goods.

So long as this state of things continues, prices must be below par.

The goods must be soid, even if ata loss.

Our low prices continue all this week,—in some things even lower than ever.

We have plenty of goods yet.

Bargains in all lines until New Year’s.

Everybody invited.

Shep- pard, who has recently returned frow Chiva, commenting upon the reported occupation of Kian Chau by Roassia, said today: “Thbeseizure of the port shows Kussia has practically taken possession of the Korea, Manchuria and the Gulf of Liautunog, and possesses a significance which will cause consternation among the diplomate cf the world.
