TABLES
These are Center Tables.
L-ast week we interested the men
with Ot'tice Chairs, which they ap
preciated, as we judge by their pur
chases. This week we will try and
interest the Ladies with Center
Tables at One-third less than former
prices. They will be displayed in
Our Urge show window with prices
on each. A Table of this descrip
tion can be used In numbers, as
every room in the house should
possess one. They are as handy as
a shelf or mantel, and decidedly
more ornamental. Look up your
spaces and come THIS WEEK
and select a Table.
