Fine Umbrellas at Just the Price of Handles FACTORY PRICES FOR UMBRELLAS Our regular retail prices are factory prices, because our silks come direct from the loom to us. Our handles are bought in large quantitiees direct from tbeTnaker. From these materials we make up um brellas that will give the most wear, as well as neat appearance, for the price paid. This enables us to retail umbrellas on a factory profit, for we use only out retail help and storerooms for manufacture. OUR UMBRELLA SALE PRICES Our prices during this special sale are considerably less than our regular retail prices, because last summer we made up a great many fine umbrellas of all qualities from $1.50 Jo $40.00 each for our fall trade. The weather was so fine during the fall months that we did not sell half of the goods made up. We cannot afford to let them get old on our hands, so for the few days before Christmas we are selling them at just the price of the handles. If you will call and 'see them you are almost sure to buy at least one or two. Yesterdaywe sold as many as three and four to a single customer.
