February Demonstration Sale
A Sale at Darlington's always attracts attention. Our patrons and the
public generally know that such an event here is something worth while, as we
do not have a daily list of "bargains" (so called) . Our policy is to have the best
and most desirable of merchandise every day and to sell that merchandise at the
lowest prices consistent with sound store-keeping. When odd lots are accumu
lated or the end of the season makes necessary the clearing away of certain lines
6uch goods are grouped together and offered in our DEMONSTRATION

The Last Week of This
Great Sale Abounds in
Extraordinary Values
jf Not only because our increased facilities of manufacture, our early quantity pur
chases of fine Furniture from other leading makers, and our immense storage capac
ity, have equipped us with an almost inexhaustible reserve of Furniture stocks, insur
ing boundless opportunity in volume, variety and values, down to the last day and
hour of this great Sale, but also because the heaviest selling we ever experienced has
left many odd Suites, discontinued designs, and innumerable odd pieces, as well as quaint and artistic
fancies in woodcraft, much of which is included in the final reductions in the last week of this
wonderful Sale.
I Naturally people in ever-increasing numbers turn to this, Amer-
ica s lireatesc furniture store, io suppiy uieir neeus, wneuier in
medium-priced Furniture of handsome Period designs, or the more
exquisitely ornate Reproductions of the Masters.
J Not only have we welcomed more old and served more new cus
tomers, and made more friends than in any similar period of our
history, but those who merely came to look remained to buy, con
vinced by the evidence of their own eyes that this Great Factory
Store offers advantages in quality, style and price that are incom
parable. $ .Six more days, and this rare economic opportunity will begone,
not to return, judging by the changed productive conditions, for a
long time to come !

The rich simplicity of this charming Queen Anne Suite is obtained from a study of what may be con
sidered the most "Beautiful Period" in English Furniture. This type of Furniture must be built of the most
sterling materials, and only by the most skilled artisans, as no joints or grooves can be hidden by superfluous
ornaments or mouldings. In order to secure the rich and dignified appearance of this elegant Suite, without the
unnecessary use of ornamentations, the designer has taken advantage of its characteristically graceful outlines,
which he skilfully and artistically enriches by a combination of various highly figured Walnut woods, depending
on the mellow brown tones to supplement his genius.
