Reinforced by giant warehouses
a city block long packed to
the roof, insuring more
variety of choice and
greater savings
Competition is the buyer's safeguard in Furni
ture Trade Sales even more than in any other line of
merchandise. But it is beneficial only in combina7
tion with comparison. The homemaker who buys
blindly does not buy well. No one store can serve a
community or an individual to their best advantage.
Hundreds of our customers proved this to their
own satisfaction last week. Other hundreds will
prove it during the present month, just as thousands
and thousands have in the 32 years of our business
life. Comparison today shows, more than ever
before:
The cxlcnl of our rjianl slocks.
2 The great variety of assortments.
') The sterling quality of our goods.
fOur guaranteed lowest, prices.
J Our values positively the greatest.
Ii Savings beyond all other stores.
Don't buy until you see for yourself the startling reduc
tions made possible by our $100,000.00 a year location and
expense saving, the splendid quality of our Furniture and
Rugs, positively the best that can be found in America, and
the wonderful assortments made possible during the existing
shortage by our close, intimate, personal relations with 47 of
the leading manufacturers of the country. We have been
making good all our statements for 32 years.
Rugs Reduced 25 to 35 Per Cent
