THE ART
The Art of Success in business is not easily learned. It is not acquired in a day. It develops with experience. The crumbling ruins of
hastily constructed building-s is the result of carelessness—or worse. The honest and thoughtful architect sees that his foundations arc firm, his
timbers solid. From the bottom up the structure is built to withstand the wear and tear of time. Success in business is bftilt upon the same
methods. The bed-rock of honest representation, of honest g-oods, at fair and honest prices is the foundation of our great success.
You require 110 proof that this is the Lewin Bros. & Co.'s idea; you have found this out yourself. Every transaction with us strengthens our
hold 011 the business of the future, as it has increased our trade every year in the past. We never stand still; always moving on, the advance
guard in our field of enterprise.
The surprising values in White Uoods, Swiss Embroideries, Parasols, Fans, Silk Gloves and Mits, Fancy and Plain Handkerchiefs, Silk, Lisle
and ISalbriggan Hose, Ladies', Misses' and Children's Slippers are only an index to this week's bargains. .>,
We are fully stocked in all Departments of our large business, and we are prepared to offer bargains in all "Departments, in Clothing and
Gents' Furnishing Goods, in Dry Goods and Notions and in everything in our line.
