in Underwear Sale Begin
Thousands of people are waiting for it. Thousands of people
who know they can save money here. Thousands of people who
know that every garment we sell is dependably made. Other
thousands who will come by solicitation of their friends will find
The entire main aisle of the store from Wyoming avenue to the elevators
a veritable sea of white garments
Every woman will be charmed by the sight. Enormous quantities of every item
producing a brilliant, dazzling array at prices that will stand the strain of comparison with
any store in the universe. The biggest event of its kind ever known to Scranton.
Think of it nearly 22,000 pieces of Underwear
Produced by two of the biggest fa:tories in the United States made it a time when
business with them was dull and bought at a price less than the bare cost of the trim
mings. The bargain chance of a life-time with NO exception.
The selling begins Wednesday with the opening of the Store

If your present tenant is
not going to renew his
lease with you now is
the time to secure a new
tenant. Don't Wait
until all the desirable
tenants have been gob
bled up by wide-awake
landlords, who get in on
the ground floor by using
I printers' ink.
But Advertise
your property in the "for
rent" columns of the
Scranton
Tribune
whete it will be read by
the class of people who
make good tenants.
The Cost
will be only one cent a
word, paid in advance,
and you may save the
loss of a .month's rent
by making a small invest
ment in this manner.
