M, | Over Forty Thousand Pure Linen Plain Hemstitched Handkerchiefs In This Remarkable June Offering Forty thousand handkerchiefs seem like an enormous quantity, and it is, by ordinary measure- ments ; but it 1s a mere bagatelle—a midsummer clean-up from the WANAMAKER stocks. Our representative is the largest buyer of linen hand- kerchiefs that goes into the Belfast market, not excepting the large wholesale concerns. Our recent purchase of plain hemstitched handkerchiefs amounted to 69,500 dozens, and with it went an order for 30,0U0 dozens of hand-embroid- ered initial handkerchiefs—a combined order for one million two hundred thousand pure linen handkerchiefs! And these were plain goods only, ‘Che embroidered Swiss goods, and V'rench handkerchiefs, of which we are large buyers, are additional. Years ago there were those who thought the Wana- MAKER policy of selling only pure linen handkerchiefs almost suicidal. But it was this policy that has built up the largest handkerchief business in the world—so that today our season’s clean-up means radical reductions on over forty thousand handketchiefs. 1 are perfect goods, clean und fresh, out of their boxes today. All are pure linen, all are hemstitched by hand in Ireland. The reductions are made from our own prices, which are the lowest on the market. 500 dozens of Wom.)
