Note That We Use No Comparative Prices in Our Advertising" i King Cotton opens his treasure chests and brings out many new things for his third week! ri. pi -SV Mkis'f- . v Mmmfk If "I can tell you nothing about this great third week that will enthuse you more than that the merchandise concerned is' even more wonderful than any that I've offered before" that's the statement King Cotton made when we asked for some word about this com ing week And after looking over the items we all agree this third week is to be the biggest and most important week of all ! King Cotton has indeed opened his treasure chests and more he has opened the treasure chests of almost every Monarch of Merchandiseland Monday he bids . you come revel in the wonderful things he has assembled for you "Price these LINENS just as tho 99 Madame Richet has returned and will meet her class in the auditorium Wednesday afternoon! 49. Hundreds of yards of novelty voiles at . . Such voiles as these usually bring a price double and close to double the one King Cotton has set for Monday. They should cause a mighty furore at 49c a yard. They are just the very sheer, cool fabrics that you want for Sum mer dresses and blouses, and they are made with woven-in patterns so that you can be sure that neither the sun nor the tub will make them one whit less attractive. There is an endless range of patterns, including checks, - stripes, plaids and novelty border effects. Second floor Lipman, Wolfe & Co. King Cotton orders 200 pairs of scrim curtains to be sold Monday at $1.85 pair $1.85 is 'way below regular price, but King Cotton has two things in mind one is to rid stocks of all odd pairs of curtains, and the other is to make Monday a big day- and surely such curtains as these at $1.85 will bring good crowds of buyers. These curtains are all finished with pretty lace edges and insertions ; they come in both cream and ecru. While these last, $1.85 a pair. ' Fifth floor Lipman, Wolfe & Co. Cowhide suitcases at $6.50 If you know anything about the price of leather today you know how special these suitcases are at $6.50. They are good, big ones, too full 724 n- by 24 in. They are fitted with two all-around straps and with shirt fold. Sub-Basement King Cotton Offers a Carload of f ireless cookers at about HALF PRICE Orders were placed months ago for these cookers and a remarkable combination of circumstances at the time made it possible for us to buy them so that we can sell them for about Half of what they are being sold at today When tvc tell you that these coolers are made by the world famous "Caloric Co." we need say nothing more about them the name "Caloric" is the sterling mark on f ireless coolers! And here's more good news quite as good news as the fact that they're'to be sold at half price and that is that they are to be Sold on EASY PAYMENTS $1.00 DOWN AND $1.00 A WEEK These cookers come in three different sizes, each size with complete equipment of cooking kettles. Single Cookers Double Cookers Triple Cookers $8.00 $14.00 $20.00 Basement Lipman, W olfe & Co. cf'Merck.ndia cJ Merit Only" they were cottons said old King Cotton! And his order was no sooner given than it was executed 1 Perhaps the King was a wee bit jealous, or it may have been just his desire to see the second floor crowded Monday, but, at any rate, he set the prices at such a ridiculously low level that he is going to be mightily pleased on Monday, and so are you! 214x2 table cloths $6.75 Even before linen prices went soaring skyward, such table cloths as these would be remarkable values at $6.75; as it is, they are thoroughly sensational. They are double satin damask cloths and every thread of them is pure Irish linen. King Cotton priced them $6.75 because there were no napkins to match them. There are just about enough of them for one day's busy selling. 18-in. pure linen dam ask napkins, dozen . . $1.35 Seems almost too good to be true, doesn't it? They come in both Shamrock and fleur-de-lis patterns and are neatly fringed. No phone orders and only one dozen to a customer. . 18-inch pure Irish linen crash, yard 4 25c If we were to go into Belfast today and order this crash by the shipload we could not buy it for as little as 25c a yard. . No phone orders on this, and we re serve the right to limit quantities. Second floor Lipman, Wolfe & Co. 1 20 ten-yard pieces 36-in. longcloth $1.50 . We are going to limit the sale of this to one piece to a cus tomer; even selling it that way we do not expect it to last more than half an hour, so if you want a piece of it you had better come at the store opening. 12-yard bolts nainsook $1.65 This is the famous Princess brand, which every woman knows is worth a good deal more than $1.65. It is a quality just right for children's wear and underwear. It comes full 36 inches wide. Second floor tttmrtn Hemstitched Huck Towels 49c Imported huck towels in size 21x39 inches, with plain centers and fancy borders. Quite a few of them suitable for monogram ing.
