20 Dear Madam: During 1911 you will receive a com- plete set of Roman Calendar Postcards- one on the first of each month. They will give the origin of the names of the months and should be of sufficient in- terest to warrant your keeping the set. ård AS Janus looked back upon the old year and forward to the new, so we, in starting our January 1911 Clearance Sale, look at last year's record of sales, and now are determined to exceed it this year. It will pay you to make this your shopping place during 1911 and January is the time to begin. Ihs C.H. Downing Slakland Cae 960-53rd si ola W dog 2 < 1230 CONY KL H.-C.
