The Furniture Sale Plays The Leading Role In The February Show rri ROM the moment the doors swung open on February 2nd, » this Furniture Sale has gained and held the complete confidence of the furniture-buying public, because it has i been different from the usual run of cheaply-made-bar .gain-furniture sales. And this very moment it is going' right along in its own way, outclassing its rivals in magnitude. Several days previous, a customer commenting on the sale, made mention that our advertising did not tell of such wonderful bargains in furniture. No indeed, we must repeat that this is a DIFFERENT sale. To scream bargains is not the purpose nor is it our policy at any time to advertise all the bargains to be found throughout the store. But our ability to purchase furniture by the carload because of the enormous out let during the sale, certainly does bring an unusual discount in price, and because it's a sale, we gladly pass over the lowered prices to you. One full sale week remains, and we shall welcome every woman who visits the floor, no matter if she only desires to view the large varieties. Women are invited to make use of our new Comfort Parlor—third floor. few months in the West, is visiting his i mother. Miss Ethel Stoudt, of Shamokin, is the guest of Miss Eva Ralph.
