Lovett's
Quality Always Paramount
The Question-?
For thoughtful people to consider right now is not what goods cost today, but
what they will cost in the next few months to come.
There is no use in getting shocked when you inquire about prcies in any com-
modity today—fo rthe worst is yet to come. Every indication points to a mark-
ed increase in wholesale prices this Spring in all lines. Every head of a home,
every man or woman who has the prospect of being custodian of a family bud-
get should awake to the advantage of buying House Furnishings now at the
prevailing and to plan the buying at Lovet's. The prices we are now offering
defy the present market quotation and may not be duplicated for several years
to come.
L-u-to- I. it .
We have several good Nuofold Davenports, Suites of high grade which offer a
very attractive_buy to people who appreciate good furniture.
A full line of room size rugs at attractive prices.
Free Delivery in Western Oklahoma by freight or auto where the amount pur-
chased is reasonable.
