For Everybody Who Needs Good Furniture This Is the August Sale
That Carries the Real
All the Country Streams Are
Friendly to the Miller
and all the region round about brings grist to the
mill.
Why should not the little creek that turns the
water wheel, giving power to grind the corn and
wheat, be proud of itself in being useful to an entire
community?
Some men are overproud of themselves because
they earn money, and the sense of their ability goes
to bed with them and rises with them when they get
up in the mornirig. It is all right, too, unless they
are selfish and stingy and inconsiderate of others
less fortunate.
The little creek at the mill is not proud and
overbearing, for it smiles all day and sings as it goes
along.

white, though perhaps not
so generally useful.

Advantages
O matter what anybody may say, or
print, about furniture, or furniture
sales, the thing for you to do is to put
your money in the kind of furniture that you
are surest of getting the value of your money
out of.
In order to discover furniture of that kind
it is not necessary to climb up a high tree, like
the guides in the southern forests, when they
are trying to locate trees of mahogany.
All you need to do is to look around
observingly and you cannot fail to discover
that the Wanamaker August Furniture Sale
is backed to the limit with furniture of the
kind that one is surest of getting the value of
one's money out of.
It is worth while considering just what
that means. For one thing, it means that
from among the 12,000, or more, pieces on
show, nobody can pick out one piece that
doesn't carry the substance of good value for
the price marked on it.
The certainty of getting the substance of
good value in buying anything, no matter
what it may be, is a great advantage to any
body. In this August Sale you can't miss it.
In This Sale You Cannot Fail to
Find the 'Best Furniture at the
Lowest Prices Based on Quality
Of all the sales in the world, the greatest
sale in the world is the one sale that could not
possibly afford to have anything to do with
any kind of furniture but the trustworthy
kind.
It is only furniture that carries the sub
stance of good value that can make a sale that
