A Great White Fleet of
Snow Has Taken the West
By storm, while in the East we have two days and
nights of gentle rain, washing the roofs clean of
soot before the rough wintry winds have come to
blow the black dust into our homes.
The rain of soft, fresh water cleanses and
purifies the air; it fills up the little streams, the
creeks and, the river, that they may be ready for
the boys and girls who love to skate.
Perhaps the most cheerful place in town on
a stormy Winter day is our big, bright, roomy,
comfortable building encircled on all the four
streets by trolley cars, with direct entrances from
the underground trains and close to the Broad
Street Station and the Reading Terminal, where
passengers from out of town can take the subway
and be under cover every minute to our Store
doors.
Theentire twelve floors of the Store are
open to the public to furnish rest, refreshment,
music and interesting occupation in walking
about to see things, and to help you entertain
your friends.
There is no urgency to buy anything in our
advertisement or in our hospitalities.
THE ONGE-A-YEAR SALE OF FOES '
We can promise plenty of small furs for tomorrow
especially the fashionable wolf, fox, nutria and beaver. Also
a very fair assortment of coats.
There are just two things to-remember about this Fur
Sale-everything in it is exactly 25 per cent below regular
prices, and everything in it is guaranteed.
