Every Sort of Merchandise Is Easier to Buy Here Today ‘Than ever before. Such command of the markets as ours gives the best bargains in fresh stuffs at first hard. Then the adjustment of stocks to modern progressive notions leaves many things out of harmony. Wisdom says let them go—not that intrinsic worth is less, but because a business policy demands it. The reduced price only brings about the desired result. From these several causes come the rare chances for ecouomical buying current here. The Annual Summer Sale of Muslin Underwear Begun today must command universal attention. The goods are the best. We never had better. The prices are the lowest of our experience.
