A wonderful opportunity for Home Furnish- I . ers to provide their needs in our lines at extraordi nary low prices. I Just ten years ago this store was opened in a very modest way and in rather limited quarters. A fixed policy of square, honest business methods has built the business up gradually until at the present time it is one of the largest, if not the largest, and most complete Furniture and Home Furnishing establishment in Harrisburg, utilizing 19,000 sq. ft. of floor space to show our goods. This being our 10th Anniversary we felt the necessity of doing some- I thing in the snape of celebrating a successful business. The event com ing at the same time as our Annual February Furniture Sale complicated natters somewhat for us. We hardly felt ourselves able to afford two reduction sales owing to our unalterable rule of adhering strictly to every representation made in connection with our business. We finally decided to apply an extraordinary large reduction on all our goods during the entire month of February and call it our 10th Anni versary and February Furniture Sale. This reduction will place our vast stock of Furniture, Rugs, etc., before the people this month at prices that it is fair to say will riot be equalled in other stores in the city. It will pay you to anticipate your needs early in the sale. BROWN & CO. 1215-1217 1219 N. Third St. THE BIG UP-TOWN HOME FURNISHERS r TmBTOXRY 7, 1919. ' the foot of the mountain.
