iVejcf Monday and Tuesday Are the Last Two Days
"Onward" Seems to Have Been
the Watchword
of the foot rfccers at the Olympic games abroad, where
some of our American boys acquitted themselves with
honor.
Note thai a true runner does not turn around to
look behind him to see how much of the track he has
done, or to see how far ahead of the others he is, but he
keeps up an ever-quickening pace to reach the goal.
There are just two things for a runner to think of:
The Goal
'r The Prize
and to keep a-going unceasingly until the prize is in his .
keeping.
Get over the disposition to stand still. You can win
something if you try hard.

in the Wanamaker August
Sale of Furniture!
AYS rich in opportunity!
The deep resources of this Sale, the huge scale of service on which it is drawii, are
such that after nearly, a month of strenuous selling, we can still promise the late comers
and the earlier comers who've come back and back again plentiful and desirable choice
among attractive suits and pieces of high-grade furniture on the two closing days of the Sale.
And, Wanamker-fashion, we will keep that promise, a thing ever to be relied on in our
promises and our sales.
Look over the house'now, if ever, with a critical and observant eye, for the golden August
opportunity to fill any remaining furniture needs, just simmers down to this:
Come in Here Next Monday, August 30th
and you'll still find excellent picking and choosing i
among the suits and pieces, and on every piece or
everu8uit the August reduction, ranging from 10
to 50 per Cent, .
. Come in here next Tuesday, August 31st, and
you will find the same generous reductions arid an
abundant and 'attractive choice. Only you won't
find, of course, the furniture that was bought by
those who came in bright and early Monday
morning, ,
Come in here next Wednesday, September
1st, and you can buy plenty of. finef first-grade
furniture, paying the higher September prices
for. it.
Go anywhere else tftan Wanamakers on any
of these or other days, and you won't be able to do
as well for your money.
THIS year's August assemblage of furniture
represents the very height of our endeavors.
It represents an .expenditure of energy and
enthusiasm almost beyond description. '
It contains workmanship and niceties of cabinet
work never dreamed of in America a. few years ago.
It presents ideas and inspirations for home
making that give new delight to every home-loving
man and woman who sees it.
The Money Savings Are Real
They represent dollars, actual legal tender,
something to go to market with, buy coal with or
help out with on next winter's clothes; not "the airy
substance of a dream" on the part of a dealer, that
he can fool al of the people with price-tags all of
the time. ' ' ,
But remember this: a price-tag in itself is "a
scrap of paper."
Where did you see it?
What was it tied on to?
Those are the important considerations, much
more, than:
"What interesting little sum did you see
worked out on it?''
This country teems with writers and figurers,
more or less accurate, lessor more conscientious.
But it has produced only- one house of business
capable of holding a Wanamaker Furniture Sale.
One price-tag can be made to look as good as
another or better, even if that other be a price-tag
in a Wanamaker Furniture Sale:
But what beats 'em is making the FURNITURE
to look the same as' Wanamaker furniture.
BUY your furniture where you like but not
merely where you like the price-tags. There's
an old, blunt saying: "There are two reasons why
we trust a man: one is because we don't know him
'and the other is because we do." t ,
Getting your furniture where you know and
trust the business policies and like and trust the
furniture is the short, safe road to finding price-tags
that bear a trustworthy statement of savings,
instead of .what Shakespeare calls
"Such a deal of skimble-skamble stuff, .
s As puts me from my faith."
' t -
Iathis'Wanarnaker Sale of Furniture, the reduc
tions range from 10 to 50 per cent. Te'n per cent
saving means $10 saved on $100; 50 per cent saving
means $50 on $100hreal, minted dollars, and not
mere flourishes on scraps of cardboard.
Every day, very careful comparisons, made and
made again, prove and prove again to us that,
qualities considered, our prices are lowest. And,
quality means the very life of the goods.
More furniture you'll not find anywhere in
Philadelphia today.
Better Furniture You'll Not
Find Anywhere
in Philadelphia Today
. The beauty and quality of the furniture are
unsurpassed, and are worthy, we believe, and in no
spirit of boasting, of the fastidious tastes and high
standards which are inseparably associated with this
long-establishdd house of business.

ESPITE all that you may have done for it
already, despite all that the Sale may have done
for it already, does your home still lack just the right
touch here, the right piece there, to complete its
equipment for beauty and service?
Or can it be possible that you have not yet visited
the Sale at all?
t Monday or Tuesday next may be the very days
of golden good fortune for you.
Just the thing you wanted, overlooked by you,
perhaps, when the furniture assemblage was at its
fullest flower, may now be the first thing that meets
your eye.
Or you may find it at just the price you wanted.
When suits or groups have been broken into a bit,
many interesting repricings are likely to take place.
The Sale will close at 5 P. M., Tuesday, August
31st,' when the furniture will be reticketed at its
regular Fall prices.
