Sterling SiIverware.
a CARD.

About a year ago certain Jeweiry and silverware
dealers. alarmed by loss of business, in consequence
OF constantly Increasing sales OF their specialties by
Department Stores, endeavored to cast odium by
procuring indictments against their competitors for
selling silver below the standard of 1925. and since
then. by advertisements and other methods. have
loudly proclaimed far and wide their own moral
purity.
Recent indictments moving that Certain Exclusive
Jewelry and silverware Dealers stand in exactly the
same position toward the public as the Department
stores, . statement OF facts Is In order.
The Specially Dealers CLAIM to manufacture the
goods they retail. Tho Department Stores fairly
state that they buy them. While the Speciality Deal
ers may make part of what they sell. they buy in
the open market OF the same houses as the Depart
ment Stores BOTH SELL THE SAME GOODS!
How Is II possible 10 account for difference in
price at which identical articles have been soldr Isit
because some of the Department Stores buy Invariably
for cash. while some OF the Speciality Dealers take all
ment Stores are satisfied with less than half tho
prontr Be the reason what 1t may. the fact is never
theless true that the Department Stores sell the same
goods at far lower prices than the exclusive Jewelry
and silverware dealers
