We Didn't Overlook the K lichen
No indeed, we didn't overlook the kitchen, the
place where the wife and mother will spend so many
hours during the hot summer. We bought great
numbers of the McDOUGALL kitchen cabinets, "the
Steinway of the kitchen" and we also looked ahead
to help her care for foods in other manners by pur-
chasing a great line of the world famous LEONARD
CLE AN ABLE REFRIGERATORS. We want every
lady to see them before buying a refrigerator for use
this summer.
Gorgeous Display ol
ORIENTAL RUGS
A most gorgeous display of the newest in Oriental
Rugs of large and small size in color tones and de-
signs suitable for any particular room in your home.
We feel fortunate in having bought these rugs at
very close figures as compared with today's prices
and will therefore sell them at prices that will tempt
even those who are not needing new rugs.
