The display of summer furniture for indoors and out is foremost. Much that is
new and different is 'shown notably, and exclusively at Gimbels, the Berkey & Gay
Tyrogayan Furniture
developed from the highly-colored and ornamented furniture used, in the Tyrolean
Alps. t x
This furniture lends itself happily to the breakfast room of the summer home; to
chambers; to children's rooms, while a highly-colored chair can be dropped into almost
any but the most formal room to good effect.
There is, too, a new school American, if you please. Come and pass judgment.
Alaska-make Refrigerators-
Alaska refrigerators have won pre
eminence for general all-round excel
lence. They are constructed on scientific
principles as to retaining cold and ex
cluding heat; as to dry cold air circula
tion ; and as to obtaining the maximum
pf refrigeration from the ice used.
This special line of refrigerators is
made to Gimbel order; good no lessen
ing of goodness but enough difference
in styles to separate it from catalogued
numbers. We sell this line all the time;
but this scale of special prices ends
