We Are Confident
That More Furniture Will
Be Sold Than In Any
Former August Sale
Judging by the number of selections
made during the three inspection days
"and the greatly increased number of sales
recorded on the first day of the Sale, and
by the enthusiasm of our customers, this
August Sale will be the greatest in the his
tory of this Furniture Store. We should
be very glad if we could conscientiously
attribute this wonderful activity entirely
to general betterment of conditions, but it
does give us unquestionable proof of two
great truths
First, that countless
numbers of people need
new Furniture and have
the money with which
to buy it.
Second, that the values
in this August Sale are so
wonderful that no one
will wait for lower prices.

reasons for this record-breaking business, the
fact that our stock of Furniture is PRACTI
CALLY ALL NEW bought this year at this
year's lower cost and that every piece is RE
DUCED for the Sale; also that" tens of thou
sands of dollars' worth of the Choicest Furnitureclose-out
stocks and other special pur
chasesis in the Sale at reductions that
astonish and delight our customers.

selected and most attractive generally, in this
