Our Millinery ■
is the sensible kind, made for people who appreciate true merit and real value.
It may be difficult for many to understand how we sell such millinery at the prices prevailing at this
store. Because our prices are one-half that of up-town stores, it doesn’t necessarily follow that the
quality is inferior; and yet it should not puzzle any one who considers the fact that we operate our
store on a much more -economical basis than those located in the expensive center of the city.
It is hardly necessary, we think, to 'say that our styles are correct. Our productions, in this line, are
too well known and ohv clientele are too discriminating in their taste to require this.
In our show yooms are Parisian patterns along with others of our own production, ranging in prices'
from $50.00 down.
•We invite you to make comparisons.
