The Carpet idea came from
the East. Solomon had Car
pets-a legendary silken car
pet among them that would
convey him and his court any
where at will. But the carpet
star, moving westward, has
fixed its empire in America
and its court in this city. 1t
is claimed that a single ward
in Philadelphia produces more
carpets than all England.
Be that as it may, we started
in some years ago to give this
city a real Carpet Store.
The work is accomplished,
as our corps Of Carpet
Knights-true knights OF sales
will show you if you challenge
them.
1t is not invidious to tell
you that the great-greatest
stock of Carpets is assembled
here.
No business remains at a
permanent point. Failure to
progress is decadence, That's
commonplace but important
we know it, you know it.
Hence no backward steps here.
We open the Fall sales with
all the new Carpets of each
sort and in all grades.
The tendency just now is
toward low tones and soft
tints of color. There is some
disposition for plain carpets
aesthetic colors. The walls
and furniture will contro,
choice. Our duty, now thai
you are opening up the home
again, preparing for the do
mestic com fort and social life
of winter, is to tell you tina
your Carpet Questions can bt
best settled here-and yol
probably have Carpet ques.
tons.
The prices are always thu
least in the market. All shor
quantities go to the Remnan
Room---a prolific Bargain
spot---where made-up carpet
and quantities for a singh
room, slip away at a third of
Passe styles are forced on
the first year, and thus tn
stock is always, fresh, clean
