them it's good news.
Much of the merchan-
disc is offered at one
half regular prices.
The very least saving
is 10 per cent on a din
ner-set.
The average economy
effected on each pur-
chase, whether it be big
or little, is 25 per cent.
Where there's a house
to be furnished, or a
present to be purchased,
or where the old dinner
set has come to the
point where it simply
MUST be mended with
a new dinner-set, these
figures cannot be passed
by with indifference.
Nor can the goods, by
any save a blind person.
There's something in
pretty, fresh, new china
that pleases everyone;
something in the beauty
of sparkling glass -
whether shining-clear,
with delicate touch Of
graceful frosted flower,
or cunningly cut in rich
designs that draw and
break the sunbeams
into rainbows - that
causes even busy, tired,
tense faces to relax into
a smile
Almost as they smile
at the sight of a flower,
or running water, or a
chubby baby's face.

IA are Of such quail
ties that it is a pleasure
to offer them in a Sale.
B Do you know that if
you went around look
ing for stores that were
content TO have their

one of their special
