Now for the Supreme Event of the Year
Our First Great
Semi-Annual C
npHE AlOST BRILLIANT, the most stupendous, the most magnificent bargain event of modern times, unequaled
" in general attractiveness and low price giving by any house in the world. Positively the first appearance in
Scranton of this great- aggregation of buying opportunities. The machinery of our two big businesses has been preparing
for this big carnival for many weeks. Every department in this store has felt the keen blade of the knife that has cut
prices and profits into shreds and losses. And though the high standard of quality sticks to the goods, there's not an item
nor an article in all the five floors of this big building but what has been given a new and little price for this sale. In many
cases, prices have been cut in two. In nearly every instance, a quarter of value has been shaved of. Nothing has
escaped the profit destroyer.
Like the victories at Manila and Santiago, we mean that this sale shall live in memory for all time to come. Never
will you forget it for never w ill goods have been sold so cheap. Not a store in America but what we defy comparison
as to prices we positively refuse to be undersold. And we honestly promise to save you more money during the short
period of this sale than you'd ordinarily save in two months of shopping even in this great store, where prices are
always lowest.
