Why This Opportunity Is Offered Our great Readjustment Sale-last Autumn anticipated the radi- cal reductions along all.Jines that have followed. In consequence we are, and-for several months have been, on a reconstructed price basis. We realize, however, that unusual values must still be-presented in order to appeal to the widespread spirit of economy. We decided to create such an opportunity, by reducing our dis- continued fabrics and patterns and such seasonable goods which, if not sold now, would remain in stock for some time to prices which would make certain their sale by June 30th. Our further desire was to bring our establishment, its resources and the attractive prices-of our mechandise to the attention of those who, for some reason, may not have visited us before. Come Prepared to Buy Inasmuch as the goods are placed on sale at these extremely low prices for the sole purpose of immediate sale, we cannot agree to send them on approval. 5 Therefore, will you kindly come prepared with full information as to the dimensions of rooms and quanti- ties desired, as no reservations will be made. As in many cases the quantities are limited, an early inspection is advised. Store Hours—8 A.M. to 5 P.M. Saturday Until 12 Noon.
