It
When the Sun Is Not
Shining, All the Candles in
the World
cannot make a sunny day, though a
mountain of wax were handy.
But the thousands of people who
have filled our building these Christmas
weeks in spite of rough and stormy
weather have so enjoyed their visits
here that they have given us this hew
name
The Store of Daily Sunshine
They insist that they always find
good weather inside our doors.
No dark, gloomy corners,
No crowded, crooked walkways,
Daylight on four streets,
Sufficiency of electric lights,
Salespeople with smiles and patience,
Abundance of bright, new merchandise.
v There is no limit to our efforts to
accommodate the people in "visiting
only" or in doing business.
Nor is there anything lacking in
merchandise assortments, no matter
how large the sales; we have almost
rivers of supply from sources that value
our outlet for their products.
Come along to the last minute.
