Annual January SALE of FINE ORIENTAL RUGS PHONE EVANSTON 600 ee et 906 ae CHICAGQ au AVE hp , TINCT | Cn ROY NERA BEGINS MONDAY, JAN. Sth : geri A ral AOE WITH PRICE REDUCTIONS of 25% to 50° on more than two thousand Rugs of all sizes, from the small mat and threshold rugs to the largest room rugs---all varieties. A Good Approach As in golf, so in business, the good re- sults of long, vigorous field shots may be lost by a poor approach. -- - TT ------ hada Your proposition has merit. You be- lieve in it. An earnest, straightforward telephone talk will put it through. It is not always necessary, and some- times it is not good policy, to disturb a busy man of affairs by a visit in person. But if you go directly to the heart of the matter in a brief talk over the Long Dis- tance telephone you can get favorable attention and, more likely than not, a favorable decision. This will be, without doubt, the most ad- vantageous sale of really fine Oriental Rugs that Chicago has seen in many years--irom the standpoint of quality, variety and value. Our recent direct importations from the rug weaving districts of the near East, as- sembled at Constantinople and Sultanabad, Persia, have been the largest in the history of this establishment--hence our statement in the first paragraph. Every rug buyer knows what the name Nahigian stands for in integrity, quality and value-giving, so any comment on this point is superfluous, The regular prices, as always, are plainly marked on each rug, with the reduced price ticket attached. Early attendance is advised because of the large response that invariably follows the announcement of this annual sale event. Rugs selected will be held for future de- livery if desired. These reductions of 25% to 50% bring the cost down so low that the question of whether or not one can afford real Oriental Rugs instead of machine-made domestics, is entirely eliminated. Get acquainted with the money and time saving features of our "station- to-station" service. It is explained in the current issue of the Alphabetical Telephone Directory. i A 28 and 30 South Wabash Avenue CRY ILLINOIS BELL TELEPHONE a) % BUYING OFFICES, CONSTANTINOPLE AND SULTANABAD, PERSIA COMPANY Nae? | OO RON ms |
