(I'honorrpli Htore, cond Klror, Centra of 33V3 and 50 Per Cent i TT IS the best piece of news certainly the most vitally interesting to homekeepers that has appeared in the papers since the memorable days of May and June last when this store gave high prices a blow from which they have never since recovered. So far as furniture is concerned the opportunities presented by this February Furniture Sale surpass any thing ever known. That fact should be plain to anybody who considers what it means to have the privilege of choosing any piece or suit in this famous and unequaled assemblage of the world's finest cabinet work at a clear price advantage of not less than 33 1-3 per cent in any instance and of 50 per cent in many. You Can't Save Less Than a Third on Anything Nothing in the stock is excluded, mot even the rare and charming things in the Little House; not even the most uncommon and exquisite suit or piece in our possession; not even the proverbially staple Office Furniturethe Sale takes in every thing and the least the purchaser can save on anything is one-third. The method of the Sale is as sim ple as pn be. There have been no new sale tags put on the furniture. The regular tags have been left on the goods and on these you will see the deduction stamped in large, clear figures, reading either "331-3 per cent" or "50 per cent." The deduction of 33 1-3 per cent applies to the bulk of the stock, but there is enough furniture at 50 per cent less to stock an ordinary furni ture store. Many excellent and high-grade complete suits for bedrooms, dining rooms, and living rooms are subject to the 50 per cent deduction as well as some hundreds of individual tables, chairs, upholstered pieces and some complete suits in wicker. So far as the quality of the furni ture is concerned we have never had a better stock at any time and as regards quantities no Sale has had a better backing. All Our Office Furniture Is at a 33l3 Per Cent Deduction This is astonishing news to a great many people, and a golden opportu nity for business men. It is one of the most extraordinary features of the Sale, when one remembers that hardly anything made of wood is more obstinately "staple" than office furniture. We believe this is the first time offered at a flat deduction of 33 1-3 per cent. Business men can be de pended upon to appreciate what it means to be able to choose, at such a remarkable saving, from such a col lection of office desks of various kinds, office tables, directors' tables, chairs 'of many standard types, office settees, filing cabinets, sectional book cases, all of the most reliable such a stock as ours has, ever been .grade known in the business. You can make advance selections tomorrow or Monday to be dated from February 7.
