The Seneca Mercantile Company unveils a major stock of new, bright, and up-to-date goods and dares neighboring cities to match their impressive display as they push to the front.
A local retailer announces a challenge sale offering twenty thousand dollars worth of goods with every item included. The main corner store room is packed with dry goods clothing shoes furnishings hats crockery and more all priced down after a thorough quality check and cut.
Riverside Plaids 1,000 yards on hand at 3c and 5c ginghams offer value. Red Table Damask at 18c, regular 35c. Big banner signs invite shoppers to stretch dollars with same goods for less money.
No goods charged, no goods on approbation. Money down or no trade. The big corner store promotes a sprawling challenge sale with price reductions on every item and promises continued square dealings. Local citizens are urged to visit within a twenty five mile radius.
The stock is being prepared by management across all departments in the large storeroom. Aisles overflow with serviceable and seasonable merchandise to be sold.
