No matter whether it hailed, blew

sulky mood of gray skies, almost any
time you looked out of a Main street
window last week and this, you could
see dashing by that great red motor
truck of Williamson's, piled high with
Grated furniture. Back and forth from
depot to warehouse and salesroOms,
the huge truck glided over the pave
ment conveying to the Williamson
store the contents of two full cars of
brand-new furniture and a good half
of a third car.
This item of news is particularly
attractive to the average woman at

French gray, tender green, and warm

all.
Wall papers are just as cheap at
Williamson's as they ever WERE
A stock of over 500 rugs shows
some interesting novelties. One of
these is the new linen rug, obtained
after endless and costly experiment
The rose colored rug in this group
is particularly beautiful. These rugs
are called Klearflax.
| In the bedroom suits among
score of beautiful patterns there was
noticed an exquisite ivory toned g.
piece Adams set, with inserts of ivory
tinted cane. Adams furniture is very
swell this season. Another set in the
Circassion walnut is Colonial in design
Birds eye maple, not in great favor for
some years past, has come in strong
again.
In dining room suits the fumed
oak, and golden waxed oak are very
good. Beautiful examples are on dis
play at very reasonable figures.
Metal beds selling from $3.50 to $48
may be found in every conceivable
finish and tone, one of the most fash |
ionable being in the Vernis Martin |
finish.
The White sewing machine, which |
sells all over the United States for
$50 to $40, is sold at Williamson's for
$3S. This is the best buy in the coun-
try today.
Reed furniture is more fashionable
than ever. Williamson's has a won
derful line of both the ivory tinted
and the nut brown. These exquisite
pieces of furniture may be had up
hoIstered in cretonne, tapestry or
leather. There is nothing newer or
handsomer than these well-built,
beautifully finished pieces. Reed fur
niture has advanced forty per cent
in price during the past year but
Williamson is selling it for exactly
the same price for which he has al
ways sold it. He has always had a
of this fashionable trade.

new machine or work stand would
make the spring sewing for the kid

linoleum in front of the sink or the
stove can't be endured another day.
Well, for all such women who need
these or any one of hundred other
items that will transform home into
fairy land and put zest even in the
familiar surroundings there is good
news to be had in this column.
Moscow women are famous for their
studious habits, for their custom of
keeping we'll posted, for their read
ing anything and everything that per-
tains to the improvement of home
life and the betterment of the COM
munity. No doubt the women have
been hearing and seeing all sorts of
scare stories about war prices, the
increased cost of living, the short
age of dyes, and the great demands
made upon this country by the for
eign powers for supplies in all lines.
Every intelligent woman knows
these things to be so. But not every |
intelligent woman knows as yet that
the complete stock in Williamson's |
store was contracted for before the
war prices ever came to the front
