far up in the silences of the mountains still dis
pense refreshment and health to the weary and
worn.
People who lose jewels advertise their loss
and promise rewards for returns.
Tljese rock springs in the valley of the Alle
gheny do not advertise, hut they put many peo
ple on the road to find the lost jewels of health.
Whoever keeps his health can work, and
that, in time, will make him independent.
It was a woman's eyesight that discovered
a well which saved the life of her hoy.
This Store is one of the city sights for

In this
August
Furniture Sale
of 1919
The opportunity which
this Sale brings is the op
portunity to buv furniture
at low prices on a rising
market.
Anybody of ordinary busi
ness sense can see the ad
vantage. Conditions in the
furniture business at the
present time are of nobody's
deliberate making. It is
simply the fundamental
principle of supply and de
mand in its legitimate oper
ation. The war created a
lumber shortage amounting
to many billions of feet.
Peac has brought a
vastly increased demand for
the things of which war has
left such a serious shortage.
Furniture factories are
not able to cope with the de
mands that are coming to
them. It will likely be some
years before things will have
adjusted themselves to any
thing like a normal degree.
Bearing in mind the
world-wide dislocation of
business during the war. all
this is perfectly under
standable. And it all points to the
wisdom of buying furniture
now and also to the wis
dom of taking care as to
where you buy it.

Here again vour common
sense will tell you that when
any adverse market condi
tions happen to make their
appearance the last furni
ture store to be affected by
them is the store with a vol
ume of business equal to that
of any other three stores
combined. This furniture
business of ours has grown
too great to be susceptible to
the market conditions which
seriously handicap ordinary
stores.
The stocks which c have
secured for this stile are the
most coinincing proof of all
this.

SEISE TO BEAR
furniture, ue have niore of
it in this vale than ue have
ever had.
We are as sure of the qual
ity as we hae ever been of
any furniture that ever came
into our possession.
That is a point well worth
keeping in mind, because
during the past few years
there has been a tendency
toward skimping. As a re
sult there is a good deal of
inferior furniture on the
market at the present time.
We need hardly tell you
that we have none of it. We
had no nped to buy furniture
of that kind to "fill the place
up lor August."
We have been able to se
cure all we wanted of the
finest-grade furnitme made
in America. This means that
we have ready the largest
stock and variety of high
grade cabinet work in the
possession of any one ret ad
store.

thini: about it that K practical and
that appeals to the average man. who
knows he must always reckon with
the practical side of things. Apart
from their coolness and .trood line--,
mohair suits are an economy because
of the way they save the regular
Summer suit.
Of course, the same is true of all
other tropical suits, such as "Palm
Keach." breezeu eave and the like, but
in mohair suits it seems to have ;
special significance for the averau'
practical man.
We have a selection of mohair
