AN OPEN LETTER
This Is Also a Paid Advertisement
RIGHT OR WRONG
We do not believe a whole lot in expending much money for newspaper advertising so that we are
thereby compelled to ask increased prices for our goods. However, we do, just occasionally like to let
EVERYONE know that this store is now as always selling furniture and other housefurnishings at lower
prices than most other stores.
OUR WAY—
We do a large business under an economical expense system which enables us to quote the lowest
possible prices on EVERYTHING. Our prices are uniformly low on all our goods. Our stock is one of
the largest and most complete in the city.
Our customers will tell you that this store is not only one of the largest, but the best store in which I
to purchase their home needs. In fact, our customers really prove to be our advertisers and they
have done it very well indeed. We believe thoroughly in a business system that will convince the cus
' tomer that what he purchases here is at least ju3% a little better for the same money, or as good for less
money than he can obtain it for elsewhere. /
This is the system which has built up our business to its present large proportions and is still doing
good work for us. We try our best to give our customers the most for their money and our Experience
has been that the customer can always be depended upon to return the favor in some good way.
REMEMBER THAT—
You may not see our advertisement in the newspapers very often, but we ask you to chalk this down:
When you want to buy good furniture at the way-Sown price, this is the store that is sure to be there
with the goods you may want and with the price that will suit.
A JITNEY WILL LET YOU OFF RIGHT AT OUR DOOR.

MRS. CAM FILM PLAY
Her Arrest and Trial Will Be Depicted
—She Is Going on the Stage
Next Fall
New York, May 21. —Mrs. Florence '
i Conklin Carman, acquitted a fortnight I c
! ago of the murder of Mrs. Louise D. j c
j Bailey in Dr. Edwin Carman's office in t e
I Freeport, L. 1,, is to enact for the i j
"movies" the story of the. tragedy |
that resulted in her twice -being placed '
on trial. i
According to George W. Winniett, 1
a play broker of No. 1400 Broadway, ,
the scenario is being prepared by Mrs.
Lottie Blair Parker and will be pro
duced under the management of Nel- '
son Roberts of the above address. - 1
"The scenario is not quite com- -i
pleted," explained Mr. Winniett yes- (
terday. "However it will have the
scene of the murder, the escape of the
slayer, followed by Mrs. Carman's "ar- 1
rest and the trial. We expect to make J
a fortune out of the venture. ' For '
several months Mrs. Carman has been
rehearsing under Garland Garden's di
rection. He drilled her for her appear
ance in court and you know how she
conducted herself during the second
- trial.
"In the fall Mrs. Carman will ap
pear in a. play under Mr. Roberts's di
rection. A very rich man is forming
the company just to exploit Mrs. Car
man. This is not the venture of afiy
moving picture corporation, but of au
individual. Dr. Cai'man may appear in
the movies also. I guess he will have
to bo present at the scene of the mur
der. The pictures will be taken on
Long Island.
"Mrs. Carman's salary? Well, just
say she will make more than the Presi
dent of the United States gets in a
: year. We are all going to make a
fortune out of this murder."
"I have been told not to talk," said
Mrs. Carman over the telephone last
night. "You will have to see Mr. Rob
erts or my lawyer. No, I do not know
what play 1 am to appear in or any of
the details."
