"Ftesh Merchandise Arriving Every Hour of Each New Day
PSW
Water Passing Over a Still Mill
Wheel Grind eth No Corn
This Store is a great wheel, moving
Continuously, day after- day, Summer and
Winter, never stopping, owing to the streams of
fresh merchandise arriving every hour of each
new day. t
These streams of merchandise rise from all
parts of America and of the old world, where our'
buyers seek and search for the newest and best
things to keep up the supply. Any one can see
that the large demand upon us if not continually
filled in would leave our counters and shelves
It goes without saying that there is no store ,
in any of the Eastern cities that keeps up
assortments so large or so fresh.
Moderate prices at the beginning of a
season sell us out quickly, so that we do not have
to appeal to our customers to help us clear goods
kept on nana too long.

New from Paris
Like most of the French neckwear, it is the beau
tiful handwork which distinguishes this little collection

Others have the more conventional embroidery, though
there is a tendency toward openwork, as you'll notice.
Some pieces in applique effect are particularly inter
esting. There are collars, collar and cuff sets, vestee sets
and high and low neck gulmpes. Usually they are of fine
white organdies or batistes, but some are of handker
chief linen.
Prices start at $2.25 for the collars and go to $20
for a handsome vestee set.

In the Homes of
the Nation
any nation you can generally read the degree of
social and economic advancement which that nation
has made.
When we say the homes of the nation we mean
all that the words imply.
We mean the homes of the PEOPLE in the
broadest sense; and speaking in that sense we be
lieve it is incontrovertible that the homes of the
American people are the best furnished homes in the
world.
This is not altogether due to the fact that
America is the richest nation in the world. For the
appearance of a home, like the appearance of an in
dividual, is not a matter of money. It is chiefly a
matter of taste, developed in an atmosphere of
freedom.
Scarcely anybody gifted with good powers of
observation who has lived in America for the last
15 or 20 years could have failed to recognize the
marvelous advance that has been made in the art of
home furnishing in that period.
The signs of it are everywhere, and they are
very good to see.
For this condition the Wanamaker Furniture
Service, more especially the
Wanamaker
Furniture Sales
is very largely responsible.
They have been equally great as an educational
and as an economic influence.
They hold a place unique in this country and, in
fact, in the world.
Probably it is the educational influence that has
been the sustaining factor of their economic value,
because they have taught people to look for fur
niture of dependable quality and graceful contour as
against the kind that has neither of these essentials
to commend it.
So many people now want furniture of depend
ableness and beauty that this is the busiest furniture
service in the world.
Furniture of character, dependableness and
beauty is here in unrivaled abundance for the
Great August Sale
to be inaugurated with three days of preliminary
selection and courtesy, July 28th, 29th and 30th.
All advance selections made on these days will
date from Monday, August 2d. If possible, be here
on Wednesday, July 28th.
The stocks will be wonderful in variety and ex
tent, and every piece included will be of the best
grade at the price ; the furniture will be Wanamaker
furniture, every piece of it.

Player-Pianos
Several score upright pianos, player-pianos and grand
pianos put on sale at real reductions from standard prices.
It is an unfortunate fact that a great many so-called piano
sales are made up of bogus reductions from exaggerated prices.
Almost all the instruments in this clearaway are those
makes which we sell regularly and which are leaders at their
respective prices. Every one of them has a long and honorable
record of satisfaction behind it.
The used pianos were" taken in exchange and have been
put into first-class condition in the Schomacker factory. You may
count on them for service.
Prices range from $475, for a new reduced Marshall &
Wendell or Campbell upright that was .$525, to $1200 for a used
Schomacker Amrico reproducing piano that was $185Q. Any
instrument may m bought on convenient terms if desired.
