Today winds up the second week'of the dissolution sale of the magnificent Hofmayer, Jones & Co. spring and
What a week it has been! What a week of sales and savings.
summer stock,
People who visited the store during the hrst days ot the sale have daily returned, alter studying the values they
bought, to buy again and to profit by an even larger share of the savings, offered. And that is just the way with the
dissolution sale bargains. The more one studies them the more satisfied one become. Most of our customers this week
were delighted customers of the week before who returned to shop leisurely and make the most of the sale’s saying power.
In regard to the savings—the prices, to be real definite—there is one point that is worthy of special emphasis here.
The big reductions have been made on the H., J. & Co. prices, not on the prices charged by other stores. With H., J.
\ & Co.’s splendid buying facilities, combined with a knowledge of market conditions that came from intimate connections
with foreign and domestic manufacturing and jobbing centers, this store has had a decided advantage in buying over any
other store in this section. The magnificent stock which is offered at the rediculously low prices of the dissolution sale
was bought most advantageously and was originally priced with unusual reasonableness. These prices, reduced an
f average of one-third, are the prices that make the dissolution sale values really matchless anywhere. Many of the very
goods which we are offering will cost us more than we are charging for them when we re-buy for our next season’s stock.
All Trimmed Hats Cut SO
Per Cent, and More
We haven’t had much to say about the splendid.
Millinery values yet, but many have found their way
into this department and have been richly repaid for
their trouble. The reasonable prices that have pre
vailed throughout the season in the Millinery De
partment have" been recognized by'all. During the
Dissolution Sale the prices of all our Trimmed and
Walking Hats, the Phipps, the Gage and many ex
quisite and exclusive creations from our own work
rooms will be 50 per cent., and lessj of their former
prices. This means a $5 hat for $2.50, a $10 hat foi
ls, a $15 hat for $7.50, a $20 hat for $10.
Only 14 of Those Beautiful
Silk Suits Left
'Plunk of it ! Of all that great line of Silk Suits,
barely more than twelve left. Only four of these are
the Coat Suits, and ten arc Shirtwaist Suits. If we
. happen to have your size, the opportunity for a sub
stantial saving is too great to be ignored. The way
they went tells the story of their values at Dissolu
tion Sale prices. And, by the way, only twenty of
those Linen Suits, so popular for midsummer wear,-
remain. Less than a half
score of .the finer Skirts,
cut from $12.50 to $8.75,
and from $17.50 to $12.00,
are left. But of Waists
there is a seemingly inex
haustible supply. All the
sales of the two weeks still
leave the stock with satis
factory a s sort m cuts of
styles and sizes. Many of
the beautiful Lingerie
Waists are in the lot.
Another Up-Stairs
Item
On the second floor you
will find a manufacturers’
sample line of Baby Caps
and Children’s Summer
Hats. There is a varied
assortment of Caps for In
fants of all ages. They
were marked originally at
manufacturer’s cost, but
they have not escaped the
price slashing. Be sure to
look them over.
Odd Pieces of Dec
orated China
Please remember, too, that this sale is far differ
ent from the average special sale, in which only a few
lines are offered. Every article in our immense stock,
save the few, which manufacturers’ contracts forbid
us to reduce, has ! been cut in price, and deeply cut,
too. W e have spent hundreds of dollars advertising
the thousands of splendid offerings. But there is a
limit, even to our generous advertising allowance,
and we are able only to give you a faint idea of all
the rich store that awaits you. Even the big circu
lar— which, by the way, we are again having dis
tributed for you to look over — was not an attempt
to list the bargains. It simply gives a few examples
from the full and varied stocks.
Nor have we display space in our roomy store..
to show one-tenth of the great values. The shelves,
under the counters, the back rooms packed with re
serve stock, are fairly crowded with bargains just as
enticing as those which cover the treasure tables in
the aisles. Don’t go away and think that we have
’done our best by you if you have bought only from
the displayed goods. Study your wants. Find what
your peeds are, and if you fail to see what you want,
ask for it. If it is usually kept in a department store,
we are reasonably sure to have it. ,
There are lots of other, interesting and impor-.
tant things that we ought to teli you about the sale7
but we’ll have to save them for another time. We’ll
only add another invitation to come to the store next
week and make the most out of this one.
Exquisite Laces and Embroideries at Sale Prices
Laces and Embroideries probably reached the zenith of their popularity this season. They have
never been so much in vogue in the past, and they could not be more popular in the future. The
H., J. & Co. stock of Laces and Embroideries fully reflects the importance of laces and embroideries
this season. It was never so large, so elegant or so carefully selected. It embraces all the standard
patterns of laces and many of the newest creations of the season. Of special interest is our specially
large and beautiful line of Round Thread Val. Laces, now more popular than ever. In Embroi
deries, so many beautiful things are offered that it is impossible to attempt enumeration. Swiss and
Nainsook Embroideries are shown in Edgings, Insertings, Leadings, and All-overs; Matched Sets
are here in profusion, while the line contains an elegant assortment of that acme of exquisite embroi
dery production — the beautiful Baby Irish. The price cuts on these goods are just as deep as in
other departments of the store.- The character of this stock is well known to the people of Albany,
and when it is remembered that this stock was bought before the recent 25 per cent, advance and
marked originally at old prices, the reductions will be all the more appealing.
In this connection we might call special attention to our line of Semi-Ready Embroidered Robes,
which have been reduced from $25 to $15.20; from $20 to $14.50; from $12.50 to $8.90.
A $3,000 Stock of Lace Curtains at Cut Prices
You wouldn’t expect to find such a stock of Lace Curtains in a city of less than 100,000. Think
of having $3,000 worth left after two weeks of the Dissolution Sale. That in itself tells of the size,
the variety and the elegance of these stocks. If you are not well supplied,, here’s really a big chance.
Every home needs a few more pairs when they can be bought at thVs'fee slashed prices. Look over
these sample values:
