intended only tor our guests
and customers, has brought
sellers-importers and manu-
factures-in large numbers.
The crowds of eager buyers
told a convincing story that
here and now goods could be
moved at popular prices.
Our new trade notions have
been admitted and admired
on both sides. Big operations
have been made. Shelves
and counters have been filled
and re-filled, and the public has
made money.
To-day the Stationery Store
offers eight bargains in Note
Paper and Envelopes, the Art
Pottery gets 100 new bargain
pieces, the Muslin Underwear
is filled up, and so all through
the house.
The great Carpets sale has
money for you at present
prices. The chance won t
come again.
