A GREAT RUMMAGE SALE
Started at the Big Boston Store, DaV-
export, Today.

Why rummaging? Every stream has
It's eddies, every gold mine its peck
cts, every highway its blind alleys.
Good things drift into them and get
lost for time till some one comes
along and steers them back where
they ought to be-in the great high
ways OF merchandise. Twice a year
we get the rummaging habit and not
only beat up the hooks and corners
of our own store, but go outside and
inoculate manufacturers with the
same kind of mania. 1t gives you a
chance to buy something useful at lit
de cost and saves the merchant the
cost of warehousing it until storage
costs rave eaten mp his profits.
Here are a few samples of how
cheap things are priced for the sale:
Skirting prints. worth sc. at , 7-Sc.
