Closed Saturdays i P. M. It is better than an .auction —The Furniture Trjtde Sale,

we mean. /

^Better. . • You kffow just what you are buying, you are left to calm judgment and leisurely comparison, and you buy cheaper. Of new Furniture the auction room catches the seconds and the off styles, and frequently the auction house owns the Fumiturfe which it offers to the highest bidder. Under such conditions the buyers Chances for bargains are small, indeed. A student of shams would get a rich find in the Furniture Trade. We don’t claim a monoply of honesty in Furniture. We have competitors right here whose names are synonyms for truth—we are f raud of them for the sake of hiladelphia. But we have the other sort too—plenty of

them.

In this Furniture Trade Sale there are no shams, and each article, however low in price, carries our usual pltdge of quality. Each trade triumph brings that which is better than sales, the evidence of faith. In some communities when the lie is given • the aggrieved party shoots to kill at sight; in others he says, “ask my neighbors.” Which is the better vindication ? . You ask, “are our statements tnithful?" We say,“ask ournei^nbors,our customers.” The answer comes in the victor)’ of faith, great. sales'. The Furniture sales of two active months crowded into' ten short days, and they usually are the dullest of the year. The Furniture Trade Sale began and will close with August. John Wanamaker.
