If you delay buying during this sale, you'll pay one-fifth to
almost one-half more. Good furs are becoming scarce.
The unsettled conditions in Europe, which cut off nearly all
of that supply, helped. Tho general strike in the Fur
industry also contributed. If we had not bought the skins
from the Trappers direct and.had them made Up in our fac
tory when labor costs were lowest, coupled with our inten
sive middle-man saving policy, we would be asking the same
prices other dealers are compelled to ask.
Sir a savins: on

possible, but, then, don't
forget Mr. Hill's is the
