September Sale of Reliable Kitchen Things Of the five thousand, or thereabouts, of housekeeping things shown constantly in our Basement, one thing can always be said: ‘ Vere is not a single article that is not thoroughly good and practical.” There is a very broad ambition in many stores to make catch-penny prices on egg-beaters that won't beat, on clothes pins made to tear clothes, on blacking cases that will shake apart almost with the first shoe polished. This September Sale enters no such competition. But it does offer large economies on such Housekeep- ing Helps as careful housekeepers and painstaking servants will appreciate. Our buyers have spent months searching for good things, that could be secured at real economies, and planning for this occasion.
