THE WORLD: THURSDAY EVENING, JUNR 7, 1900, Siegel-Cooper Company. The Daily Story of The Big Store. THURSDAY, JUNE 7, 1900. You Can’t Find To- Day's Tews in Yesterday's Yewspapers. Nor can you find the fashions of to-day in a store that’s not up to date. Here stocks change quickly—we are in the markets of the world every hour of the day—and any new thing that appears anywhere on two continents is procured at once for the patrons of The Big Store. Add to this great advan the other equally important one— lowest prices quoted in New York—and the question changes from “Why should I trade at Siegel-Cooper's?’’ to ‘How can I afford to do otherwise?”’ Go-Morrow— A, [gain— Bargain Friday. Not another word need be said—Bargain Friday at The Big Store is an event too well understood to need further expounding or explanation. It means money saved—and everybody knows it ota seminar renaemeaneanonimieniett The aver spends over one-third of the to- tal weekly income on food. In many cases as much as half and more!
