i Every day the growing crowd
gives evidence of their appreciation
of our new idea of progressive
merchandising and we find a most
pleasing result from our new
method. Instead of figuring how
to make the largest profits, we find
better results from figuring how to
use greater purchases, and day by
day our business increases, be
cause in creating the outlet we are
enabled to dispose of larger quanti
ties, and in many instances the
manufacturer's entire stock in a
few day 8 time. We don't mean by
this that we can give you one dol
lar's worth of goods for five cents,
but we do mean that we often buy
such stocks at a great sacrifice and
we give our customers the benefit.
The manufacturers come to us be
cause they know that no quantity
is too large and no quality too fine
for us to handle.
Every table will be laden with
bright new bargains in desirable
white goods, wash goods, dress
goods, silks, ribbons, laces, em
broideries, etc., etc., for this week's
