Laces and Embroideries
When we sell you a saek of
sugar for $4.70 when you
have been paying $5.00, you
appreciate the saving, but we
will give you comparatively
much closer prices on laces
and embroideries. You can
make a greater saving on the
purchase of $1.00 worth «
lace ami embroidery than on
a sack of sugar.
