Many Special Purchases at Savings of 25 to 33 per Cent.
and Our Entire Regular Stock at Substantial Reductions
lONSIDERING the general scarcity of good Furniture and the general
conuiwon 01 uie market, una is tne mos& lmponam; August ome in our
history. We have a MORE ATTRACTIVE STOCK than ever before,
and fully as variedwhich is remarkable in view of the fact that most Furni
ture manufacturers are "sold up" for 1920, and are not taking any orders for
delivery this year. But we made our purchases months ago, and our standing
C
is such that the manufacturers have seen to it that our shipments were des
patched in time to reach us for this Sale and riot a single piece of Furniture
now here could be replaced at as low a price as we paid for it. That means,
the Furniture in this Sale WOULD BE UNUSUAL VALUE AT OUR
REGULAR PRICES, yet every piece and suit of Furniture in the Store is
marked at a reduced price.
A Wonderful Stock in the
Stow and Warehouse
The Furniture floor in the Store is filled with samples
of the hundreds of designs the samplo representing, in
most instances, a reserve stock of dozens or scores of pieces
or suits in our great warehouse at Ninth and Poplar
'streets a model warehouse, indeed, with loading and
delivery facilities not equaled by any store in the East.

Many Customers Take
Advantage of Our
Deferred Payment Plan
Many good customers who usually pay cash
for merchandise, sometimes deslro to make pur
chases somewhat beyond their routine expendi
tures furnishings for the home, for example
and our Deferred Payment Ofllce makes it con
venient for them by giving the privilege of ex
tending payments over a period of two or more
months.
It is a dignified, practical system, giving the
customer the benefit of our bed-rock cash prices,
on goods at reduced as well as regular prices
adding only a very small percentage for clerical
work and legitimate interest. (Floor 4J4, Filbert
Street).
