THE National City Bank of New
York City made a careful test of
The Dictaphone before adopting it for
office dictation. The Dictaphone proved
its case on a definite basis of speed, ac
curacy and economy, just as if can for
you.
Whether your office is large or small,
we are ready to install Dictaphones at
any time and let you make the same
sort of exhaustive practical test that con
vinced The National City Bank. That
puts it up to The Dictaphone to prove
its case to you.
Will you give it a chance?

This Great Furniture
Sale Is Fulfilling the
Highest Expectations
OU R three inspection days demonstrated to the satisfaction of thou
sands of old and new customers that this is not only an extra
ordinary sale in every respect, but that it rises to the highest
standards of Furniture-Sale greatness!
Customers who had first shopped around before making final se
lections here, unreservedly expressed their pleasure over the volume of
our exhibit as well as the enormous variety and rare values of the
Furniture.
To-day the selling will go on with renewed vigor because this
event is great in everything that makes a sale, such as this, interesting and
profitable to the public. Great, because the Furniture is high grade, not
necessarily high priced as Furniture goes to-day.
Great, because.this house is more concerned in manufacturing and
retailing honest Furniture than in great sales volume, for without the
one we could not have attained the other.
Great, because early purchases of immense quantities of Furni
ture and the doubling of our own factory output help to keep costs down
for you. Quality' is never cut here to lower prices, and the opportunities
lo. save are multiplied when measured
against the higher costs of Furniture in
the future.
t
Thousands of handsome Suites and
Pieces in Period, Modern and Plain-Line
Styles for every room in the house.
Not a suite or piece, but will cost you
more the day after this Sale closes. Small
wonder the selling' is the heaviest in our
history with many of the best values
going first! So, do not delay.
