Fake Attention has been Sale called to the decep, Fur tive methods used by
 some questionable firms on the outside to dispose of their stocks of furs before the prices dropped as a result of the war. No sooner had than the war started than it became apparent to all dealers in furs that the prices would drop, Those merchants who were overstock- elk planned on how they could best unload their stock without too much loss.
 It was within few days after the war started that dealer in Los An. geles put an advertisement in a news paper of that city, in which he urged people to take advantage of his spec ial fur sale, as, so he asserted. the price would soon advance on account of the war having stopped the expor tation of furs from abroad, where they were manufactured. That this argument appealed to many who were "stung," is believed certain, though now they can get the sahe furs at much less than was paid afthe great bargain sale"
