TVfO MATTER how circumstances, condi-
tions, fashions and methods may change,
, there are certain fundamental things that
always remain true.
We have seen many changes and develop
ments in the furniture business, and in fact
we have been responsible for not a few. We
believe, and with good reason, that these have
been ior the better.
All that we have done to have furniture
made better, more beautiful'and more attrac
tive to live with, has been done in the light of
one fundamental fact, the fact that IT IS
THE GOODS THAT MAKE A SALE.
Only one thing could make this Sale what
it is, and that is the stock of furniture that is
back of it. There is only one Wanamaker
j New Unfolding of
I White Novelty Sports Silks

women that this fresh, timely new shipment will be doubly,
welcome.
They are in a choice of stripes and plaids and all are fine
fresh, exquisite weaves, priced on a fair basis at $5 and $6
a yard.

Furniture Sale, because there is only one
Wanamaker furniture stock to make it.
There is only one Wanamaker furniture
stock in Philadelphia and no other stock that
comes within comparative distance of it.
The Wanamaker furniture stock is su
preme in varieties and quantities of the goods
that people want.
If you want good furniture, you will find
here a choice that you cannot find elsewhere.
If you want to choose from the largest
assortment of good furniture to be found any
where at vouched-for savings, there is only
one place where you will find it, and that is
here, where it has always been.

direct fashion, because, after all, these are
the facts that matter to people who need new

Two Strong Points of the
Office Furniture Sale
the larger selections and the lower prices. There is more
of everything, and everything is less than it has been in some
years.
It has no weak points that we know of. The goods in it
are of a quality as undoubted and recognized as that of any
merchandise made.
The savings are mostly 20 to 25 per cent, on a small pro
portion of things a little less.
In fact the sale lacks nothing to make it a thing of genu
ine advantage to anybody needing office furniture at actual
economies.
