This Sale and What it Means
Not only a great saving but a quality so thorough that
it will overreach your greatest expectations is what this sale
means to you. We say this with the full knowledge that you
will not be disappointed no matter what it leads you to
expect. The values are great indeed at the prices asked
but the printed specials of this advertisement fail to number
the hundreds of remarkable features that are equal in value
to those embraced in this print. The statements made, sen-
sational as they may appear, are justified by facts and we
ask vou to investigate their truthfulness. If any patron is
of the opinion that we have indulged in exaggerations in a
single thing we are anxious to get that opinion. The value
of our advertising space depends upon the faith you have in
our announcement. Rigid censorship is employed to guard
against any misstatements. The moral of this house is your
safeguard. All we say must prove so, should it fail we as-
sume the responsibility, not you. Never was an event more
deserving of the name sale. Do you realize the great prep-
arations we have made? If so you will not fail to be at this
store the very opening moment. Many a big stirring value
awaits you, and recollect any article can be returned and
money will be cheerfully refunded.
