There’s something else to be borne in mind Certain of the Sumiare bought for the Sale arrived late—only a few 8 ago. It went into the sale at greater eee than we had planned—a quarter and a third less instead of ten per cent, to move it out quickly and to avoid a congestion of furniture which would have inconvgni- enced our customers and hampered them in making their selections. A lot of it has been sold. But there was more than $140,000 worth, and some of it is still to be had, at a quarter and a third off—fine, upholstered over- stuffed two and three piece suites for liv- ing room and library, easy chairs to match, NOTE—The Half-Price Furniture will be grouped by itself on the west side of the Rotunda on the Fifth and Sixth Galleries, New Build- ing—living-room gnd library pieces on the Fifth, bedroom and dining- room pieces on the Sixth.
