OUR WEEKLY TRADE SALES
We have no idea of interesting careless folks in our advertising at least it is hopeless to expect much in that direction. It is the man or woman
who thinks, who, better still, knows the one who values money, having much or little of it, that comes here for supplies. And, to thinking folks,
44 trade sales " stand for something and are interesting. They are measures of the buying power of the business. We do not mark down prices
because it is a certain day or 'because it is you," or because we want to celebrate we buy great lots below value and give you the advantage. As
a rule, the things we offer in "trade sales" are made to our order, of full standard quality, but cheaper because of our ability to buy in greater quan
tities. That is all.

Spring in Hidwinter
Had an early spring opening of Wash
Goods, and, considering that it was only a
hall an early opening, it was very wide-awake
indeed. What a lot of people there must be
going south, or is it that you want to get
Summer Dressmaking, etc., done while it is
cool? Or are you tired ot winter without hav
ing had any? We never before saw so early
an interest" taken in spring things. The open

Is the valley of .Maiotse, llfty or sixty
