The Great Fact of This February Furniture Sale Is That
Brings the Goods That People Desire
It
j
i-y
"The People of the United
States," aid Daniel Webster
"descend :us of the English stock, admit with
gratitude and filial regard that, among those
.hecstors, under the culture of Hampden and
oyancy ana otner assiduous nainots, me sccu
of popular liberty first germinated, which on
fU our soil has shot up to its full height, until its
branches overshadow all the land.
Happily it seems today as if those, branches
arc destined "to overshadow all the earth."
The brave men who lie asleep with open
eyes in the "Valley of the Manic" and along
"the Ridge" are still the living witnesses or
"seeds of popular liberty" which they planted
amid the storms of fire "to overshadow all the
earth."
May it "germinate" in all countries as
speedily as the "wise men in the East" can
jnakc the next move.
What is to be, must be.
fa "Let us have peace" and patience.

The people can see for themselves that this Furniture Sale is great beyond
comparison in the thing that matters most the goods.
We ha e said that in all events of the kind the furniture is the thing.
Judged by that criterion, this is a marvel of a sale.
We have never tried to make a furniture sale go ahead on any principle but
that of having the kind of furniture that people want and having it in unequaled
assortment and at price savings that will stand investigation.
That is the principle upon which we are still working. It has brought our sale
to the point at which we can say that nobody can afford to buy any furniture with
out seeing what we have to offer. Of course, the great majority of people seem
now to understand this and to act up to it, but there is no reason why anybody
should be unaware of the fact that the first principle in furniture buying is to see
what can be had in this sale, which presents all the most dependable and desirable
types of furniture made in America and some very choice imported pieces at the
lowest prices consistent with service and quality.
Tomorrow will be the third and final day of courtesy and inspection. Selec
tions may be made tomorrow, as on yesterday and today, but all purchases will
date from February 1.

An Oriental Rug Sale of Much Beauty
Backed With Opportunity
These February displays of Oriental rugs make a picture well worth
coming to look at.
Hut they have more than a picturesque charm. They have a back
ground of real economy. Oriental rugs are still scarce, generally speaking.
Their prices in the open market are still high.
In this sale there is a magnificent variety at large savings.
We understand there is no such variety to be found anywhere else
at any prices. ,
Chinese and Persian weaves are shown in profuse choice, many of
them at the prices now obtaining at wholesale, some at less.
The Persian carpets in the sale are chiefly Serapi and Mahal pieces,
all of good,, reliable quality and in excellent colorings.
The Chinese carpets are fine types in charming shade?.
Scores of very desirable small rugs are in the sale at low prices, such
as small Chinese pieces, Mosuls, Kazaks, Guendjes and Beluchistans..
As in the Furniture Sale, customers may select rugs tomorrow, the
third day of inspection,' and have them charged from Saturday, February 1.

Speaking of
Beautiful Hair
if you have had the "flu"
and have lost your hair, it
may be worth your while to
step into the Salon de Bcauti;
and have a little talk about
it. Hair at that stage of
the gamo needs particular
care and petting if it is to
come back in its original
l)cauty.

Training Little Feet in the
Way They Should Go
is as much the province of a shoe store as of a school.
Much of the- foot trouble people suffer with results
from their having worn ill-fitting shoes in their child
hood, when their feet were growing.
A child's shoe should not only be large enough at
Uptime it is first tried on, but should make allowance
for the growth of the foot up to the time that shoe will
be worn out.
The footwear in this Children's Shoe Store is built
on scientific principles and fitted by experts, who know
just how much allowance should be made for growth.
A host of trim little shoes in various leathers, at
prices ranging from 85c for the baby's first pair of soft
leather shoes to $9.50 for a pair of shoes for a largo girl.
