Largest Price
Savinas in Years
These two conditions are fulfilled
in the February Furniture Sale, and
they are making it the greatest sale
that has ever been held.
We have known all along that it
would be the greatest sale on record as
regards the goods and the savings. By
this time we know that as regards vol
ume of selling there has never been
anything to equal it.
But the fact that we are selling so !
much furniture is not what we wish to I
talk about. What we wish to emphasize
is the reason for it, and the reason is all
in the furniture and the prices.
The people seem to have made up
their minds that Wanamaker furniture
is the best and safest f urnitureNto own;
and when Wanamaker furniture is
offered in such unlimited choice as will
be found in this sale at deductions of
33 1-3 and even of 50 per cent their
own judgment tells them that there
has never been such an opportunity.
- And they are right.
This'is the first time, to our knowl
edge, that such a stock of furniture as
will be found in this sale has ever been
offered in its entirety at such a lower
ing of prices.
