say that about the Noiseless.
.Its family name is unquestionably

What wonderful work it turns out,
too ! Letters that are good to look at
easy to read a joy to send a pleasure
to receive. Have you seen it?

this way again!
I $40 may not be a
1 o w price compared
with the past, but it is
in these times. Why,
this $40 Sale is a harder
proposition today than"
a $20 Sale was only
two short years ago.
We can't even dupli

former prices. So you
can judge how great
the values are at $40.
The buuing is brisk
