Closing , the An urniture saie With a Great Round- All Odd Pieces 12 gust ir up oJ Time: Place: Event: Reason: Terms: Delivery: Service: Beginning tomorrow, Monday, at 9 o'clock; closing Satur day, August 30. at 6 o'clock. The MEIER & FRANK Furniture Galleries on the Eighth Floor, Fifth and Sixth Streets. Disposal of well-made sightly furniture for every room in the home at lower prices than our old normally moderate rates; the greater part of it came here within the last year and is down-to-the-minute in desirability. All the furniture included is an oddment. Living room, din ing room and bedroom suites sold down to one, two or three pieces. Odd chairs. Odd davenports. Missing pieces of the suites are practically impossible to duplicate. If we ordered them from the factory today we don't know when we could get them. Not for six months anyway probably longer. Then the wholesale costs would be advanced greatly. That is not the way we do business. We would rather sell the odd ments at reduced prices. Great things are being planned in the Furniture Galleries for this autumn and we want to clear our floors, for we shall need every inch of our 50,000 square feet of furniture Belling space. Payments can be made to suit your own convenience; any terms in reason. If you wish to take advantage of the econ omies of the sale but are not ready to receive the furniture we will store it for you free of charge for any time up to six months. "We must reserve the right to make deliveries, when and as we can. It will be impossible to promise delivery on any specified day. The August Furniture Sale has been the greatest in our history and our delivery forces are coping with a tremendous volume of business. Each piece of furni ture we sell is gone over carefully and finished before deliv ery, so that the process takes more time than if we could simply bundle it into a motor van and leave it at your door next day. ' EXTRA SALES FORCES will be on hand to take care of you adequately; all furniture will be plainly marked with the old and the new special prices, so that you can wait on your self if you like. This Sale Is Limited Prices hold good only on items listed when they "are sold there will be no more. But these oddments these remaining pieces are decided finds. They are CHEAP in the old-fashioned use of the word. Furniture is going up. There does not seem to be any limit to the expanding costs. There is a SHORT- . t- . i 1 . -m oil th. hnmaa that ant tn h rpfumifihpd for the hova who haVA AliEi-w aciuau anurvsgo i ami mvuio ivi - 1- - come back. Today no furniture factory will accept orders for next years delivery at present prices, and orders for 1919 delivery are flatly refused at any price. This Round-Up of the August Sale affords opportunities to select perhaps just the .piece of furniture you need at a price lower than you expected to pay. Monday is first day and best choice. Most of the pieces listed below are one of a kind. When they are sold the chance is gone if you happen to want that particular item.
