Ten Beautiful Bedroom Suits as Illustrated
To Be Sold Monday—At a Price That Is Astonishing
Can be had in Adams Period. Choice of antique ivory decorated or
rich American walnut with either large vanity or regular dresser—or in
separate pieces—at these prices: Chiffonier, $28.00; Bed, $82.50; Vanity
Dresser, $57.50; Regular Dresser, $39.00; Dressing Table, $29.00.
Suit Priced Complete, 4 pieces with Vanity Dresser ...............$147.00
Suit Priced Complete, 4 pieces with Regular Dresser ..............$128.560
These suits are indictative of the remarkable furniture values this sale
offers. It will be to your adva.nta?e to attend this sale tomorrow. We have
two large floors filled with New, High-Class Furniture, which was bought on
last year's market—oun reductions are based on our actual factory cost|
prices—and are lower by 1-4 to nearly 1-2 than this class of furniture can
be sold for again.
THIS is a sale so unusual—so utterly different—and of such tremendous
scope—that it demands the attention of every man or woman who needs
furniture of any kind for any pugose. It’s a sale offering buying and sav
ing oi)portunities too iood—too real—and too unusual to be overlooked—es
pecially in times like these, when all material is demanding top grice——labor
scarce—and prices on good, worthy furniture is mounting higher and
higher almost daily—
If You Contemplate Buying Furniture
Now Is the Best Time to Buy It
We have made some measurably bold and definite statements about this
great sale—but it justifies all, and more, than we have said. There’s only one
thing certain and sure—there’ll be no such values as we are now offering yc
in High-Class, Up-to-Date Furniture after our stock has been closed ont——ar{fi
we say to you earnestly that—no matter what your Furniture Needs are—
come to this sale and see our Furniture—then, if you wish to—compare—for
the more you compare the more clearly will you realize that the best stock,
the best Furniture and the best Values are now offered at High's.
We Have Made Sweeping Reductions
Which Cover Our Entire Furniture Stock
Every Dining Room, Living Room and Bedroom Suit—as well as all
Library Furniture—and the many hundreds of Odd Pieces in our big Furni
ture Department, have been marked down to near, and in many instances
less, than today’s wholesale cost—no conceptions of the scope of the sale and
the savings it offers you can be gleaned except by a personal inspection.
