Is Now Ready For You

THERE has been a great deal written
i and said of late about difficulties in
importing Oriental Rugs and the scarcity
of them. While all those statements are
in a measure true, still we are glad to be
able to announce that Our Purchases for the
Fall Season are fully up to the standard of for
mer years, both in quantity and quality, SO that,
as usual, we are ready to show to the Art Low
ing Public of Washington the finest and largest
collection of Oriental Rugs in all sizes and
qualities.
We have never believed in marking our
Rugs at high prices and conducting sales peri
odically by so-called reductions; hence you will
find that our regular prices compare favorably
and at times are even lower than much-adver-
tised sale prices on dependable Rugs.
We believe it will be to your interest to see
our large selection and compare prices before
making your decision.
