One of Those Thoroughly Genuine and Worth While Chamberlin-Johnson-DuBose Co. Sales of
New Suits, New Coats and New Dresses
Next to the remarkable prices that obtain to-morrow, the one big and fine fact that stands out
is that the suits, coats and dresses in this sale are NEW.
The ready-to-wear section has been refilled within the last week.
The newness and freshness rivals a day in early October.
But no October day ever brought the values you shall have to-morrow.
It happened like this—
Ten days ago the buyer hurried to New York.
Conditions were unique. Makers had “weather-itis” and—what has never happened before—they
were anxious to be rid of all imported cloths, owing to a readjustment of the tariff the first of the year.
But now the sale unique among sales at this season of the year!
No off shades. No picked-over "remnants.” No straggling waifs.
Everything as new as the morning and as bright and attractive—suits, coats and dresses you would
select were the savings no consideration.
It is logical to suppose that the woman who needs a suit, coat or dress will go to-morrow to the store that has the fresh stocks.
