I` A dazzling' array of the most fascinating value -giving offerings ever presented. A.glittering
carnival of unprecedented bargains, fairly beaming with rarest underprices. , This announce-
ment of such, extreme radical reductions, at the very incipiency of the•winter season, on every
conceivablepiece of up-to-date fur toggery, is certain to create an] unusual economic furore
among thrifty shoppers.'
We're always doing something' unusual, something surprising ; always manoeuverin some
deal to give our patronspatronsome extraordinary value. g
The difference between a Brown sale and other sales you see advertised is briefly -just
this : The furs we offer are the same kind as we sell at all other times, but with the prices
emphatically reduced. We do not handle Furs that are especially made to sell cheap.
In our advertising we shall not offer brag in place of bargains, or frenzied claims instead of
sober facts ; we know of no better way to impress you withthe importance of this movement
than by making simple, but honest, comparisons of our sale prices with our 'regular prices, the
goods we offer being in all cases identical with those we carry in stock at all times. These com-
parisons are easy and indisputable,

Every Line Represents
Actual Cash.
(Ottawa Journal.)
On the 'ether hand, newspapers,
would like 'the public to recognize
more than the puhlic does that every
line of newspaper space represents ac-
tual cash to the newspaper in cost ,
that every free notice of a, charitable
or religious undertaking is simply a
straight subscription equivalent to
money from the newspaper. 1t is
gratifying, therefore, to find a plain
statement of the ease from a source
not affiliated with any newspaper.

NYork,
New
ence at Philadelphia recently, that
the newspapers deserved more credit
than they commonly got,
"We," said Mr, Moore, speaking of
those engaged in the various branches
of organized charity in New • York
State, "do not ask the stationer to
contribute the paper: `we use. We do
not ask the owners of the buildings
we occupy to contribute our quarters.
But wu do ask the newspapers to do
the equivalent by giving us spate
which pis money to them: He went
on
"Buys space. Advc.tise your work
as business houses do, and you wild
get the best publicity in the world.
"I have seen city editors receive
tach morning high stacks of 'publicity
matter' which countless organizations
want than to print for nothing. 'It
is'not fair. All sorts of propagan-
dists are flooding the editors with
their matter, and they' wonder why it
isnot printed, The, newspapers can-
not afford to print 11. And, again, sIt
not news. We have adopted anoih-
is n p
er method in New YorkThis sear

advertisements. Wo will get ince the
neWS columns only when we' do. scnne-
thing that is news." ?.
The popular idea.01 a,'neivspatper_is
that it is generally looking, for some-
thing to fill up its columns. Ties con-
trary is the truth. No read n v spap-
er 'is published anywhere whose chief
problem is not how to save spare,
Not a day in the year occurs but
good news has to be held back for
lack of either space or typesetting.
Every line Of free notice not strictly
