i ds What you (Buy
Nothing you buy effects your
happiness more or for so long
a time as the furniture you
buy for your home. The real
value of this long range in
vestment is not the number
of dollars spent but the re
turn you get in comfort and
satisfaction — and for how
long. Because furniture is
something you don’t buy
often and because what you
DO buy must be lived with
for a long time, it is import
ant that you get the kind of
furniture that will give com
plete satisfaction. The best
way to be sure is to buy from
a store that offers only that
kind of furnishings. At
Todd’s you can be sure of find
ing furniture worthy of your
investment. You can be sure
the price you pay is always
as low as the same goods can
be bought elsewhere, if we
know it. Whether your pur
chase be for many dollars or
few, Wilmington’s greatest
furniture store offers fullest
possible returns for your in
vestments, in value, in com
forts and lasting satisfaction.
Where you buy is important.
