MANUFACTURERS, WHOLESALE AND RETAIL DEALERS IN
t ipsa Furniture.
33 La
Ours is the biggest Furniture business in the United States and our sales anually are over a million dollars. Besides
manufacturing a,l .rge part of our goods, we control the output of several of the largest factories in the West. When small
dealers buy from $100 to $150 worth of goo Is at a time, we buy from $25,000 to $50,000, f OR SPOT CASH, thereby giving
from 15 to 20 per cent, better discount than they. We are always willing to give our customers the bent lit of these big dis
counts. and save you from 10 to 20 per cent, on every piece of furniture you buy from us. Another advantage is, we handle
only first-class goods an 1 will guarantee every piece we sell vou. Our motto is “GOODS AT RETAIL AT WHOLESALE
PRICES.” To prove this we submit a few prices and defy competition:
500 Bureaus, beautifully finished at $4.50 each. bevel glass, only $45.00 each.
3000 Good Strong’ Bed-deads, complete at $1.50 each. 30 solid walnut frame plush Parlor suits, six pieces, $35.00 each.
Mto Good Strong Bed Springs at $1.25 each. 50 solid Walnut, full spring bed lounges, moquette tops. §9.75 each.
200 French Dressing Cik.es. 20x38. beat German glass at $10.00 each. “YValeot Cottage chairs" 50e each.
150 Ten pieces, toilet, bed room suits, marbleized top, 30x20, German plate 500 Good, Strong, walnut tinisn, Rocking Chairs, Cane seat and back,
glass only $30.50 each. only $1.00 each.
50 Ten piece, solid walnut, marble top, toilet bed room suits, large
These are only a few of the thousands of bargains we have to offer you, at prices lower than other dealers pay for the
i same goods. If we, by buying for 18 large stores, in the enermous quantities we do, cannot undersell small dealers, then
the wholesale houses have no advantage over the little one horse dealers that buy a handful of goods at the time.
~r AST, BUT HOT LEAST,
I
Among the many attractions is our CARPET DEPARTMENT. We carry the largest stock in the South, and our prices
are the lowest to be found. These goods are the latest designs and the newest shades. MAIL ORDERS have our best atten
tion always. ( an sell you good Ingrain at 50c per yard, best at 85c, good Brussells at 75c best $1.25. Make a diagram of your
room, with exact measurement, write us what kind of carpet you want, and we will guarantee to please you. We cannot
cut samples as it tak s from a yard to a yard and a half to show the figure.

mail. We will tre.it vou right and do our best to please you.
