Stewart & Co., Broadway, Fourth Avenue, Eighth to Tenth Street The Christmas Sale of Furs This Christmas Sale of Furs contains beyond question the finest values in seasonable furs that the Wanamaker Store has yet offered. The furs included are the most popular kinds—black fox, pointed fox, red fox, sable fox, civet cat, caracal, mole, Persian lamb, near seal, Hudson seal, skunk, mink, beaver, raccoon and wolf—all in the newest and most fashionable models of muff and neckpiece. ‘ The prices on these muffs and scarfs are in many instances little more than half the usual figures. There are, for example, black fox muffs or scarfs at $17.50 for which at least 825 would usually be asked by any reputable fur store. __ The natural raccoon muff at $15 would invariably sell at $25, and the raccoon scarf in the sale at $10 is worth every penny of $18.50. A clever set of civet cat in the sale at $32.50 is a $45 value by all comparisons. So one might go through every fur on the list in order to emphasize its true worth. Among the values to which we call special attention for tomorrow—though by no means excluding the other furs in the sale—are these: Black fox muffs, $17.50, $25 and $30.
