one has equal showing in
buying with the largest
merchandising centers in
the world. Our consump-

nous that manufacturers
are constantly hunting us
when they have large lots
to close. This fact, taken
together with the fact that
we buy for two very large
stores, our Philadelphia

hances our buying ability.
No lot is too large for our
New York office, and we
get something of every
thing that is offered, either
very early or Very cheap.
This weeks opportun-
ity came in an embroidery
purchase of 1900 yards,
which was rendered us at
popular prices, SO we could
sell them at 10c, 12Hc
