You've heard of people VINO
"work like a Turk Ian interim.
nable but poky pegging away that
amounts to little. Look at the
Armenian in the window, working
Turk.fashion. Two or three Towels
a day his product. Then turn to
the American weaver inside the
store, with his big jacquard loom.
Seven handsomer Towels in an hour
is his product. Stores differ quite
as much...the rutty kind with small
ideas and few facilities---small buSl'
ness and necessarily high prices or
failure. The modern, Cohen sort,
with an organization quite as COM
plex to the uninitiated as is the JAG
guard loom, but aspositively good
bigger business and lesser prices.
The jacquard makes the cheaper,
better Towel, though its operator
gets more than two Turks could
earn, and pays for motive power
besides. BigexpenSesmeanc cheaper
goods, if the expense is wisely in
cured.
We have bigger and more va
red line of Turkish Goods dis
played than are in all other Rich
mond stores combined---more than
we'll carry after the loom exhibit
ton is over. These we are en-
abled to offer at tempting prices.
It's prudence, economy, and salts
faction combined to buy now for
the needs of months to come. No
weave equals the Turkish weave
for bath purposes no towelllng
and robing is so intrinsically cheap (;
none so easily Numbered; none
more durable.
