Not How

But how low can we make the price, is the
question we ask ourselves when marking our
goods fur sale. That's what makes ours an
ever-panding business, it's a potent advertiser;
it tells the story through the purse in thousands
of homes, only to be retold in countless others
by appreciative money savers.

Nothing furnishes a room like
an artistically colored, well drawn
wall paper. One may get along
with very little furniture and few
draperies, and yet have the room
wear a comfortable and home like
appearance, if only the wall paper
is warm and rich in ellect. Its
good economy to buy GOOD
WALL TAPER. Inspect our
stock of the latest wall hangings.
