take advantage of the savings offered.
These Irish linen handlSerchiefs have
history worth the telling The his

miles from Saith Street, in our Belfast
office, from which they have just ar
rived. That accounts for their Irish
lineage and their Irish linen-age.
The department. manager wanted
to put them on sale at 49c -
thought he could go no lower, but we
wanted to include the handkerchief
event in the series of seven and the
buyer agreed. So we made the price
47c and added seven handkerchiefs to

INCREASINGLY tearing
down and building up
seems to be the order of
progress in our wonderful
city. To-day Broadway is
as smooth as polished steel
and tomorrow it may re-
semble a devastated. she'll
torn highway.
We leave the city for a
two weeks holiday and
upon our return land
marks are RACED and roar
ing steam shovels are
gouging out the earth and
rock for another struc-
ture.
So it is and SO it should
be. New York is the great
est city in the world and
that which was new yes
terday is old to-day and
the old must needs give
way for the new.
Just now the Broad,cay
arcade entrance to this
store resembles the en-
trance to a mine shaft.
The 34th Street arcade en-
trance is a gray wooden
tunnel and several of the
windows are boarded up
with a bridge structure,
gray and uninviting.
But it is all for you.
Changes. In a few weeks
these rough boards and
the temporary structures
will give way 10 more
spacious departments on
the Main Floor.
A new entrance on
34th Street should be an
added convenience to those
who habitually used this
entrance. In the past it
has often been necessary
to stand in line at this
door to gain entrance to
this popular store.
A stairway from the new
entrance will lead directly
to the Section of House
furnishings in the base
ment.
And when all this is
done perhaps we shall tear
apart another section of
this store if we think it
will improve oar Serrice
