It is well to have several high- neck wash satin blouses; but apart from those one's choice may range from Georgette crepes with little vests to apron-front waists bordered jin satin or to curious bolero effects as in the sketch shown, Examples A BISQUE Georgette crepe waist with a vest embroidered in navy blue silk has a tuxedo front trimmed with small silk covered | buttons in dull rose; $27.50.

Main floor, Old Building, During These Last Half-Price Days of the February FurnitureSale The Furniture Galleries Will Remain Open Until 9 P. M. FURNITURE SALE One inevitable result of selling so much furniture as we have sold during the past three weeks or more is that we now have a large accumu- lation of odd or single pieces and suites, and certain stocks not to be reordered, the largest, we believe, on record. During these last days of the sale we make a general clearaway of all these at half the regular prices. Whether one should buy _furni- ture at half price or not depends upon — the furniture. So far as quality and desirableness are concerned, This Is Not Half-Price Furniture, It Is Wanamaker Furniture the kind on which the Wanamaker furniture business has been built up. It is furniture of the kind that has made Wanamaker Furniture Sales the most widely celebrated sales in the country. During the remaining days of February there will be as much of this standard quality furniture cffered at half price as would stock a fair-sized furniture store with single suites and pieces. In addition to the one-of-a-kind pieces and suites are the following lots—all to be closed out at half price— Berkey & Gay superb matched bedroom suites in mahogany, walnut and enamel—at half price. Never before such an offer. New prices, $649.25 to $1,076.50. A thousand pieces of Stickley furniture—from the celebrat,d shops of Stickley Brothers, Gustave Stickley, L. & J. G.
