 Established z2~7' Bedroom Furniture of Desirable Styles
 at reasonable prices Pleasant to lovers of fine Furniture

It is a mistaken idea to think that all the famous period styles in furniture are beyond reach of modest purses.
 In reading or thinking of Sheraton, Colonial or English Furniture, all of which are ad- mired and desired by people of refinement, one is apt to say, "Oh yes it's all very fine, but we cant afford it.'' The Read Furniture Galleries prove otherwise at present, and we invite an inspection of Bed-' room Sets, copies of famous styles, which are not costly and which are adaptable to the modern city apartment.
