Tt-physical condition. -Are you letting it run down at the heel because the other half of the world is at war? Are you putting on_blue goggles so that you won’t see the worn out? dingy furniture, the rug that needs replacing,-the curtains that need renewal ? Are you excusing your action by saying this is not the time te spend money ! Well, now, you are doing just the wrong thing. ¢ Your Home Is Your Life If it isn’t your life, Mr. Man, it is your wife’s life. That’s sure. And the children’s life. Every- thing they hold dear is centered in your home. You are in your office a third of the twenty-four hour day, another third you are asleep. But the Little Mother and her children are at home all the time. They see when. things run down. They see the dingy chair. ~ And little by little they run down themselves. This A queer advertisement you say. Practically nothing about the Store or the Sale; merely a talk on keeping up our homes. But is it a queer advertisement? We know that most people will buy in the Wanamaker August Sale if they make up their minds to buy furniture at all this summer, so we try to show them that they should buy NOW. Our belief that furniture will be bought now at Wanamaker’s if anywhere, is founded on these facts: —here are the largest stocks ' —here is the most variety —here are the best values —here are the lowest prices, quality considered —here is the best furniture service —here is the original August Sale of Furni- SR ew Yérk %% | %52 é: effi)z ‘Watch Hill at an early date.

The All of players who formerly upheld colors of Plainfield on the diamond termed “has beens.” It is the time to spend money on our nomes. It is the time of all times to make our homes cheer- tul. It is the time not to hoard money, but to put it in circulation. Our country is naturally prosperous. Crops are good. Money is plentiful and to be had at low rate of interest. What is needed is CONFIDENCE —confidence in ourselves, confidence in each other, confidence in the country. A little optimistic cheerfulness, a willingness to help one another, the putting of some of the hoarded money into motion that it may start up the stagnant mills and give people work and wages—that’s what the United States needs. In fact, we have never stopped—we have never let our home—the Store—run down; have we now? We have bought freely. We have kept up stocks, varieties, gone ahead with improvements— never for a moment stopping or curtailing our service. We have kept up to the top notch all (ORIGINAL) ture, the trade movement instituted by the Wanamaker Store many years ago; and people like the original, the real, the genuine, and not a copy. Tuesday, July 27 “ First Day of Courtesy” All the furniture will be on view, Tuesday, tagged with August prices and forehanded selec tions may then be made, transactions to date as of August. The Sale includes our entire regular stock of furniture, together with large specia! purchases, the grand total reaching close to a million dollars’ worth in this one store alone. Furniture at half price—one purchase alone at half price amounts to $80,000. Furniture a third under regular prices. was invincible. BALTIC Sunday at Beach, Mass. Mrs, Peter_J. Donnelly, Fad for!

And, as a reward, our business is going shead. i In Farnitare I —for the August Sale now ready to open—we have prepared as largely as in other years. No “‘blues” here. No lack of faith. No lack of mer- chandise. No surrender to conditions. Nothing but confidence—in the people, in ourselves, in our merchandise, in the times. Put confidence in YOUR homes. Put cheer- fulness there. Put faith there, Put there 8 new piece ot furniture, a new rug, or some improve- ment to show to your family and to your neighbers that we are moving quickly into better times. Don’t let your homes get into the condition of some railroads—so run down that they may never “‘catch up”” up agsin. Once run down anything costs twice as much sas it should to build up. But kept always in good condition, things are kept efficient at the least expense—a railroad, a piece of machinery, a storemor YOUR HOME. Little Talk (Above) is to Advertise The Wanamaker August Sale of Furniture . No reduction less than 10 per cent. (and this only on staples). Average reduction — from the already low Wanamaker prices—25 per cent. Furniture for every room in the House. ~ Fur- niture of all grades—super-fine, fine, medium,good —down to the lowest price it is safe to pay. And all guaranteed with the Wanamaker guar- anty that insures satisfaction as long as you live with the furniture. Free Delivery Out of Town The Wanamaker Free Deli;ery Service by freight takes care of most furniture where a reason- able amount is purchased up to and including the third zone—for instance : 300 miles from New York freight is prepaid on every 100 pounds of furniture for which the customer has paid $10. .
