supplied we ask that you come here tomorrow for it is the
last day of the White Sale.

or more items fhat you will need in the near future.

these are yard wide, a few are 32 inches; cloths that are
well worth our regular prices of 35c, 39c and 50c, all at one
reduced price only 25c.
White skirtings in all the new weaves and patterns, both
plain and fancy weaves, savings are almost one-third of
regular price.
