The Wanamaker Catalog 



is now ready, A postal card request will bring your copy 

 to you. Ask for samples also, if you wish them. 



This big book is more than a catalog, more than a list 

 of goods and prices. It gives the Best Ideas — the last 

 words cf Fashion — from New York, Philadelphia and Paris. 

 Each page fairly breathes Style-suggestions of value to 

 you, and all the goods are dependable. Every offering 

 is "on honor." 



The contents of this catalog are not confined to wearing 

 apparel for Women and Children, but include also full 

 lines cf Men's goods, Hats, Shoes, Gloves, Underwear, etc. 

 The catalog also includes Bedding, Beds, Carpets, Furn- 

 iture, Glassware, China, Japanese Goods, Sporting Goods, 

 Lamps, Sewing Machines, General Housefurnishings, etc. 



We ship goods all over the world, and each shipment 

 must arrive safely, and muat prove satisfactory — or else 

 we wunt it back, at our expense. 



Just write us, "Please send Catalog No. 8."

 PETRIFAX CEMENT COATING 



preserves the texture, prevents any dampness from 

 working" inside, and produces a uniformity of color. 

 Petrifax Coating is manufactured from a mineral base, 

 ground as fine as modern machinery will allow. This 

 ba.se is carried into the pores of the concrete, plaster or ce- 

 ment by a volatile liquid, which readily evaporates, leav- 

 ing a hard surface which will not crack, chip or peel off.
