At this, moment we are crating a consignment of furniture to go to Costa Rica, Central America, not to mention the furniture" we are sending to places far distant from ana maker Square, Philadelphia, although located in our own United States.

Then there are the folks from points close at hand, thousands of John Wanamaker 'em, our valued neighbors and friends. Each of them behdd; and most of them bough Wanamiker Sale furniture. Naturally, this has left some impress on the Sale enough to make a quickstep advisable on the part of all with din mg room yet to buy. Yet our floor display of 200 different kinds of dining room suits, and the ressrve stocks in our capacious warehouses, are still sufficient to satisfy, and to delight hundreds of purchasers yet to come. Savings are sufficient to make it a mighty poor business proposition to buy furniture for your dining room after August 31st if you furnish it before.

The nearer to the current date you purchase it, the better business proposition. TOU wouldn't 1 think much of these fellow citi zens of yours who come in dairy and help themselves to Wanamaker furniture at Wanamaker August prices, if they did not help themselves to the best, would you?
