The Week After Christmas
Will Be o. Great Time in This
Store
Different From Elsewhere
Store

One of the old-time trade habits was to have
a rummage week after Christmas.
1t was sort of scramble week.
All the odds and ends and bargain and torn
things were gathered together and piled up for
a bargain SALE.
If you look carefully through the papers
you may find the same sort of thing is still done
in some places
But not in this Store.
This Store rates the intelligence and dig
nifty of the purchasing public higher than that.
We never buy junk at any time; and, selling
nineteen-tWentieths of our goods too fast to
make hard knots of congestion and undesirable
accumuations, we would really have hardly any
thing to offer. any one who came here to seek
half-values or near-values in an after Christmas
bargain scramble But we have FULL VAL
UES, fair prices and undepeted stocks in almost
any line of merchandise that could be inquired
for
Not even the toy shelves and tables will be
found swept bare. On the contrary the Jolliest
and the SQUEALIEST place in the whole Store,
the one that will yield the most anC. the purest
entertainment to the square inch, during this
coming holiday week, will be the Great Toy
Store, to which you must be sure to bring the
children to share the joy and see the sights and
create the sounds.
The Fashion Salons, the Young Women's
Salons, too, will be full Of new beautiful, exclu
sive garments appropriate for the Winter fes-
tivities to come and in fact all social or business
occasions.
And so on, at every hand in the Store; real
merchandise not f1ashy odds and ends used to
"fll in" and make a show until the good stuff
arrives.
The good stuff has arrived! You cannot
come here so early that you'll not find it ahead of
you waiting your inspection and able to stand
up under it.
