facilities for operating
prompt, large. ready-cash
purchases of excellent
merchandise of the less
fine grades.
The Wdndmdker DoUn
Stairs Store LDdS establish
ed seUeraI ears ago to
meet the crying need that
there Uas for such a store,
and the result is a unique
institution that stands as
completely in a class by
itself today as ii did on
the day il Uds born.
1t is devoted exclusively
to the sale of merchandise
kept up to the mark of
dependability in quality
and down to the lowest
mark of practicability in
prices.
In its methods of getting
merchandise and of get
ting customers it is not
driven to initiate auctions,
Junk shops, rummage
sales, outlets for factory
rejects, or the antics of
establishments with whom
imminent bankruptcy has
become a habit, or "mov-
ing out" become perpetual
motion.
1t is built solely and
squarely after the model
of the Wanamaker policies
and the Wanamal1er Store,
of which it is an integral
part, carried on at present,
as heretofore, under the
personal direction of its
Originator.
All goods are fresh, new
and purchased especially
for sale in the Down Stairs
Store. New shipments
arrive in most depart
ments daily, and there is
constant novelty and pres
entation of new fashions
and ideas.
II rs size is as impressive
Il as the volume and char
acter of its business. The
entire floor space below
the Main Floor, occupying
a great city block, is used
to accommodate its goods
and its customers, and
there are supplementary
galleries running around
all four sides.
Besid S innumerable
cross-aisles, it has three
great, wide, straight aisles,
making open thorough
fares from Chestnut to
Market Street.
These aisles are throng-
ed all day by "our best
people" the bes t the
country produces, for they
are those whose lives have
caught that keynote of
prosperity, THRIFT.

justly renowned as one in
which any man could safe
ly buy with his eyes shut,
and still secure proper cut,
fit and all-wool quality.
But so far from encour-
aging him to do so, we
moved the Mems Clothing
Store, a few months ago, to
its present place on the
Gallery, where floods of
real daylight from the
street outside pour in
through windows and sky
lights, and large mirrors
assist a man in "sizing up"
his appearance while try
ing on his suit or overcoat
(Which is invariably all
wool, a fact that astonishes
the average stranger in the
Store, in view of the mod
crate price-range).
The assemblage on the
Gallery of all the appur-
tanances of a mans ward
robe-his outer clothing,
his hat, his underwear,
even his pajamas and his
shoes-and a similar group
ing of boys clothing also on
the Gallery, saves a busy
man a vast deal of time,
and is one of many illustra-
tions of the thought for the
custom e RS convenience
with which the Down
Stairs Store is laid out.
To the shopper to whom
economy of time is almost
as important as savings in
money, the business woman

great boon.
THE subways from the

with the entrances to the

Or, entering g Wana-
