This sale is a case in point—the maker of these dresses is even now on his
way to Europe to study Spring fashions, and prior to his departure sold us his
entire stock of this season’s dresses at a liberal margin below actual cost.
Now, there is nothing remarkable about this maker’s action, because most
makers clean up their stocks before devoting their energies to a new season.
But what is remarkable about this sale is the
liberality of the reductions to us and to you

prices, due in large parti to the volume of business which this particular maker receives from us
annually.

at so much less than yon yourself in other circumstances would have to pay. that we can not think
of any argument more potent than that to persuade you of the wonderful opportunities in this sale-
