Monday Morning, December 3d We Will Inaugurate a Sale of
ORIENTAL MUGS
At Fully 33V&J& Under the Present Market Price
THE offering presents, beyond question, the
choicest collection shown in Omaha and the
best part about it is that you can buy them at fully
one-third under present market value.
More important, possibly, even than the low
prices, is the fact that these are all rugs of indi
vidual character and beauty, chosen with the
greatest care, radiant with the dawn of a new,
civilization, yet mellowed with the luxuriousness
of past centuries free from the taint of the mod
ern Commercial Oriental Rug.

dark furniture; here is. another that will soften
and absorb the light of a very bright room, and so
on throughout the line, rugs that are realistic
treasures that the connoisseur will revel with.

most opportune time to make selection as gifts to
loved ones or for the home.
