A wonderful valuo. Furniture values. v q Every Suite and Piece of Furniture on our floors has been repriced to meet the new conditions. The drastic reductions we have made, and he losses wc have taken, blaze the trail to the lower price levels the people have long waited for. Not the old prices of 1913 and 1914, for none in the trade, or few, ever expect to see such prices a jt a i n, but decidedly lower prices than Furniture has been offered anywhere since, or that in our belief will be offered in any February Sale the country over. New lower prices, too, on all recent purchases, on our incoming shipments and the enlarged output of our own Factory add to the unpar alleled advantages here. v J The greatest exhibit in our history. Vast, varied and illuminating. Furniture to meet every need, whether it be but a single article or equipment for one or a thousand homes. .f. I Come see, for your own stitisfaction. Every day is courtesy day at the Van Scivcr Store. No one is urged to buy. Note the quality and the prices. The number of dollars a Piece of Furniture is reduced does not mean much in itself unless the Furniture was priced right in the first place, as it always is here, where Fur nilurc is never marked up to be marked down. The all important thing is, that in this Great Sale, no matter what you buy, or what you pay, the price is lower than you will be asked for the same article anywhere in the land.
