Our January sale of muslin and cambric underwear Superior qualities and excellent workmanship have made this store famous for years in all its muslin underwear transactions. From time to time the public has been amazed with special sales here, the principal fea tures "bf which were the magnitude of the assortments shown, the fineness of the goods and the lowness of the prices, but in no case were our prepar ations as great as during this sale and never again will there be such a grand opportunity for muslin underwear buyers as now. More than ten thousand pieces of underwear reached this store in one shipment during the last week and the result of this purchase as a money-saving chance will be clearly demonstrated during this sale. You save onethird the price And in many cases you do not pay more than one-half what the garment is actually worth. Note the prices carefully and remember that this under wear is the best that is made, having come from one of the biggest and most noted manufacturers in the country, whose factories are located only in suburban districts, amid hygienic surroundings. Every garment will bear testimony to this statement. Drawers Ladies' Muslin Drawers, hav ing cluster of tucks, cheap for 19c.
