WORD about this store’s policy. We aim to never carry from one sea

some price. Your ideas of buying are the same as ours of selling. \ ou
want the greatest possible value for your money. We want you to have it. If
the business we are doing these days is an indication, you are perfectly satisfied.
We are making record-breaking prices which will continue all this week. Shirt
waists, lawns and other wash summer fabrics, kimonas, suits, skirts, in fact, the
price is no object now on any summer goods. All must be closed out.
