E.t AIM") ' Wanamaker Platform LEAN CUT and straight out, it is a declaration that prices of merchandise in general are too high, and that they can be ' made to come down. The method is the offering for sale of practically everything in the Wanamaker Stores at one-fifth less than the reg ular market prices. The effect has been to cause speculators in raw material to "let go" of their corners, and manufacturers in many lines to reduce their prices to the trade. Because of what we have done here and in New York prices are coming down. Because of what we shall continue to do, we expect them to come down still lower and to reach a basis making pos sible a readjustment along practically the whole line. When we opened this campaign we had a fairly clear idea of the difficulties ahead of us. We knew there was no use beginning it half-heartedly and we did not want to do the thing insincerely. But we went ahead in good faith and now everything goes to show that we did something which has helped to restore the sounder and more tolerable conditions for which merchants and people everywhere have been longing and longing. THE MAIN POINT IS THAT WE HAVE DONE SOMETHING REAL TOWARDS RESTORING THE PURCHASING POWER OF YOUR DOLLAR. The stock back of this campaign is the earnest of our purpose. There never has been such a stock offered at the same deduction in prices in the history of business in America or anywhere else. fl The Warm, Rich Color of the Brown Topaz lias been very cleverly reproduced in some now imitation topaz jew elry lately arrived in the Jewelry Store.
