Philadelphia Development Sale" at Gimbels

Marks New Readiness in the Supplying of Beautiful
Things of Real Merit at Surely Lowest Prices
A speculator goes "broke" by depending on wide variations of the market ; a broker
that stays at his task cannot fail, for he takes the small regular profit.
The Gimbel Store was first in America to apply new progressive ideas to retailingto
purposely take small profits for the sake of winning the largest business.
Tpday Gimbels tand First in Value Giving
The evidence of your own eyes marks the vastness and splendid variety of Gimbel
stocks. Think of six million dollars' worth of goods under this one roof!
The Gimbel Store appeals to those of large means who would buy expressive, wonder
ful things. And to the young homekeeper as well who can gratify the dictates of good taste
while practicing the most rigid economy.
In every section of the Store very special lots of goods are on sale this month new lots
each day. We are working for volume and winning. No other store ever grew so continu
ously and so rapidly.
And first of all, Dependability.
