the Rugs themselves, and the COM
pleteness Of the stock, it is evident on
each price ticket.
Months and months ago. on much
lower basis than the prices Of to-day,
we bought from the leading manu-
facturers of America the newest and
finest Rugs, that we might have for
your selection every kind of Rug,
every size and pattern and color you
wished, and yet not have to ask you
to pay the high prices we knew would
be prevailing elsewhere this Fall.
No haphazard selections were
made; each Rug was chosen carefully
and deliberately-se selected because we
knew it would harmonic with the
other furnishings of some home and
