FIRST—No sales will be made or orders taken before 9 A. M. Friday or outside of business hours any sale day. No employee of the store will be permitted to make purchases before 10 A.

THIRD — Where bargains are limited in number to one, two or three of a kind, the first customer to place his or her hand upon the piece or suite will be considered as having first right to same. FOURTH—Where prompt delivery Is de sired we will do our utmost to comply, hut would request that customers refrain from hurrying "upfttttng processes,” as we only wish to deliver goods in first-class con dition.
