Unusual Opportunities for Large Savings Thai Will Be
Possible for Tomorrow Only
Here are specially selected values. They are remarkable
, from the tremendous quality that is embodied in every garment. They are
remarkable from the very fact that we manufactured these furs ourselves
and sell them direct to the retail customer, thereby eliminating the middle
man's profit.
t
"The moment a thing- is advertised self-interest compels
the manufacturer to keep the goods up to standard." So wrote a leading
advertiser the other day and this truth is wonderfully exemplified in
the large fur manufacturing and selling business of Mawson & DeMany.
We advise all women who wish fur coats or other furs this season to buy
tomorrow. '
