Had enabled us to profit by the blun
der of an overloaded jobber, by relieving him of a splen
did sample line of last season's office chairs at prices
that bear no resemblance to the original values. The
line embraces the choicest designs of several leading fac
tories, and affords a variety to choose from that is sel
dom shown by the retailer. They are all equipped with
the swivel and spring attachment and many have pat
ented devices for regulating.
A highly polished saddle seat, leather back,
chair, formerly sold for $15, can be bought for
A very strong, comfortable arm chair, with
swivel and spring fixture,
Same proportionate reductioti prevails throughout
the line.
