In no branch of business has the reduction of prices been so noticeably great in the last few years as in the Furniture trade, anc more especially in Parlor and Bedroom Sets of Furniture has this great reduction in prices taken place. Housekeepers, when looking for New Sets of Furniture, often compare the prices they can buy for now with the prices they paid 2 few years ago, and the comparison shows that they can buy to-day f r almost half the price of former years. Witness the fact that a nice Walnut or Mahogany Bedroom Set, with a British Plate Glass, is being sold to-day for less than a good painted pine set could be bought for a few years ago. Also the fact that Walnut Parlor Sets cost to-day less than half the price paid not many years ago. Improved machinery and new and scientific methods of production have effected these changes in the price of Furniture. As far as we are concerned, we have adopted into our Factory system such improvements as the advance of the times demanded, and our present GREAT CHEAP SALE OF PARLOR SETS and BEDROOM SETS is the result of our successful efforts in this line. Over 100 Bed- room Sets are in process of manufacture in our Factory at the present, whereas a quarter of that quantity would be a large number to undertake. at once with former facilities. We are therefore in a position to conduct our GREAT CHEAP SALE OF FURNITURE unlimited, and invite the public to come and inspect our extensive variety in Parlor and Bedroom Sets, and compare new prices with the old prices of former years. .
