are Investors
A dollar spent at the Mill End Sale is a del- 1"
invested. '
And it has one great big advantage over the
usual invested dollar:--it pays a dividend imme-
diately-mot at the end of six months or a. year.
' lar; something Worth $1.25, $1.50 or maybe as much as $2.
A Mill End .1011... buys something worth more than 2. doi-
The difference between the dollar spent and the value it
buys is the dividend. What a fine big attractive one it is!
Spend them wisely.
Spend your Mill End dollars for the things you need most.

And always you may be sure that you are making a good in-
