Furniture 

Furniture is naturally associated in the mind with Carpets, Upholstery and House furnishing Goods, and we now associate it in fact. Extensive additions have been made which afford unlimited facilities for com plete line of Furniture. The richness and taste in design and material and the fine workmanship displayed throughout the en- tire stock is rendered more conspicuous by the moderate prices at which the various pieces are marked.
 We open the department with full line of Davenports, Couches, Bureaus, Chif. foniers, Dressing Tables, Ladies Desks, Book sCases, Cabinets, Buffets, China Closets, Morris Chairs, Hall Chairs, Tables of all kinds, and Ornamental Cedar Boxes Fancy Chairs and Rockers are an especial. y strong feature of the stock.
 You will find a very complete assortment of all the above lines and other pieces which add so much to the variety and scope of a Furniture Department. The opportunity is unexcelled for inspecting the latest patterns and designs in Furni ture, especially of Fancy Furniture, in which there has been such great improve ment within the last few years.
 The Furniture Department occupies the entire upper floor from the Carpet build ing to Fairfield avenue, more than 10000 square feet of floor surface. Take the ele- vator from the Carpet Section.
