FROHSIN’S
Modes That Are Exclusive But Not Expensive
Notwithstanding all efforts to prevent it, a condition exists in which scarcity of materials, cost
of making and assembling the finished garment, offer an actual problem of dress.
We, of the Frohsin’s Shop, are putting our personal interest in the matter, losing no opportunity
to overcome this condition as far as possible, and thereby maintaining our fundamental principle of
selling “Exclusive Modes at Moderate Prices.”
We are, therefore, pleased to call your attention to our splendid display of Spring Fashions in
Suits, Coats, Dresses, Skirts, Blouses and Undersilks
with values reflecting our moderate price ideal.

An arrow most fleet,
