Store Closes Regularly 0m Store Closes Regularly On Saturdays at Six Saturdays at Six — ——— —■— • —— —— —■— - BEI.I, 1001—23.10 UNITED ' HARIUSBUIIU. MONDAY, DECEMHKH 2, 10IK. FOUNDED 1871 Daya Before Christmas (*****) That is, nineteen shopping days. And bear in mind that this store will not be open any evening preceding Christmas —not even on Saturdays —because you know this store closes on Saturdays at six o'clock. We would, therefore, suggest that you do your Christ mas shopping as early as possible in order to secure best selections. We shall endeavor to replenish our stocks where assortments may be sold out, but the extraordi nary demands on the manufacturers, because cessation of war made it possible to enjoy Christmas this year to the fullest extent, leaves no assurance of securing Christmas merchandise later. Come in the mornings if possible. Drapery Department Moved to 4th Floor The improvement and growth of a store is frequently evi dent to customers by interior changes. No store cares to make alterations or change departments about for the fun of the thing. It is usually because some departments outgrow their allotted space, and other arrangements must be made to care for a growing business. In moving our Drapery De partment to the Fourth Floor, improved facilities are per mitted for the better display of the many beautiful curtains, draperies and upholstery materials. In this department you will also find cedar chests, shirtwaist boxes and the sewing machines^ BOWMAN'S—Fourth Floor. Beautiful Gift Linen Tlfese are, indeed, inexpensively priced.
