SALE OF LADIES' BLOUSES SENSATIONAL BARGAIN'S AT THE JIULBOUIINE. We sometimes lell the "why" of a bargain—toll it in few words. For example, an English blouse manufacturer offered his complete range of spring and summer samples to our buyer at •a discount of 25 per cent. Our buyer declined, but a few days latir made a sporting offer to take the lots at 33 1-3 per cent. off. We got them. Now you have heard a lot lately about 33 l-3rd discount; just see how it works out in this instance. Supposing, for the sake of argument, that the maker's price for a blouse was ss. This, less 33 1-3 per cent., brings the Ifome price down to 3s 4d. Now add to this our landing charges of 40 per cent., and the manufacturer's 5s blouse in England lands here in our store for 4s Bd. After putting on our usual small working profit wc are thus able to sell at practically what was the maker's original price to the wholesale. You will see that a "job" discount like this from a maker is quite a different "horse" from a "job" discount trom a warehouseman. Wc tell you all this because we think there is no better way to advertise these ladies' blouses than to explain how we bought them. Common sense will show you that you are going to make a saving of 50 to 100 per cent. The lot comprises linens, striped and fancy crashes, delaines, hopsacks, silk muslins, Indian linens, voiles, all-ovir white embroidered, etc., and all have collars. Many are trimmed with latest fancy buttons, and some have tucked fronts. The new fishmouth sleeve and fancy ties and tassels are much in evi- ; deuce. Prices are Is 6d to 8s (Id. Sale ] is for seven (lays only.—Advt.
