When You See It in Our Ad
vertisement You Know It Is
True.
It is not our policy to conduct a sale every month f.n
the year, and quote prices that we can't deliver. The pub
lic don't expect it. It is a well known fact that for 40
years this store hasalways sold at a modest profit, first
class goods that we can guarantee, and at the smallest
possible price.
However, during this Semi-Annual Clearance Sale,
the above guaranteed merchandise is yours, and our mod
est profit thrown in.
Remember the house of quality, and the store that
never disappoints.
