An extraordinary purchase has just brought Cold black and white print no matter what words it tells is a poor proxy for such exquisite fresh wash weaves as these we are exploiting today - The first thing we want to tell you, naturally, is that they are really "way, way underworth not a few are close to half price but you're going to forget all about price when you see them and you're going to buy not one dress pattern, but two or three and possibly more and had the price been more than 49c it would have mat tered not at all! Monday morning. Second Floor, Lipman, Wolfe & Co. YOU will note that we make no comparison of prices in our advertisements I We have found the quoting of worth prices to be misleading in most every case for no two people have ex actly the same idea as to the worth of an article and further we have found that untruths are liable to slip in with comparative prices, even when the greatest care is ex ercised! And so we never say "$1.00 merchandise for 69c" we simply say, "It's very specially priced at 69c" ! Isn't that the fairer way the better way? Wouldn't you rather find an article better than the advertisement led you to believe it was? wouldn't you have more confidence in the store that adver tises that way wouldn't you have more confidence in all advertising? Hundreds of stores in every sec tion of the country have eliminated comparative prices we are, in deed, proud to be numbered among them I Fnr lVTnnrlav We announce a sensational ' Sale of SUITS at $15.00 If we were to quote the worth prices of these suits in this advertisement it would i quite like a fairy tale!
