FINE CHINA
RICH CUT CLASS
Our
Second
Thanksgiving
Anniversary Sale
Week Beginning
NOVEMBER TwENTY-sEvENTH


NOTEWORTHY among many
~ successes was our first Thanks
giving Anniversary Sale.
It proved to be the right thing done
at the right time.
Extra inducements to buy the
choicest China and exquisitely Cut
Glass Just at the season when they
are most desirable, were naturally
effective.
We have decided to repeat what is
no longer an experiment.
With the feeling OF Thanksgiving Is
rightly associated feeling OF liberallty
toward our friends-toward our
selves.
And on the one day in the year IN
which the festal board is OF all things
pre-eminent, what more appropriate
than that it should be adorned with
new and beautiful equipment-eIther
wholly or i'll part?
What more welcome in the old
home TOT new OIlS1 llldIi' III NNHJ"
ton with the great family festival,
re-furnishing OF the table or the side
board?
What surprise, too! Everybody
expects presents Christmas, but in
many families Thanksgiving gifts are
still unlocked for.
Or, if you prefer to keep your pres
ents till next month, there will be no
better time to select than now, to be
shipped whenever and wherever
ordered.
1t is, in short, Our determination to
make this annual Thanksgiving sale a
feature OF the year, on account:
l. OF its novelty.
. Quality Of the goods offered.
8 The very low prices. being for this oc-
casion much less even than our regular
standard Of ~ less than elsewhere.
To the attractiveness OF the sale all
the treasures OF the store contribute.
