Mme. Jaequemaire, who is the daugh
ter of Georges Clemenceau, French pre

TIMES, 1,1920.
An evolution in special selling of all merchandise answering to this broad grouping includes linens, white
goods, bedding, laces, embroideries, and the like.
Invoicing in the various white goods departments has been completed, and to the splendid large stocks on hand will be
added fresh, new merchandise as it arrives from day to day.
Paralleled to our own invoice should be the “invoicing” by every housewife of her personal and household linens; con
temporary with our price-cut offering of white goods should be her replenishing.
Low Prices Predict Speedy Selling i
Every item listed below speaks eloquently of a lowered price. It is a conservative statement to say that during this sail
white goods or linens may be bought for as small a price as at any time during the entire new year, and, in most cases, at 1
considerably smaller price. * 1
Besides the impressive prices on table linens, you will be tempted to buy generously of the 10-yard bolts of lingerie cotton]
the prices of which are now at “bed-rock.” \
