And isn’t the buying of furs a matter of reliance upon the store from which you buy? Certainly it is in these days of clever imitations. The artful dyeing or the drawing in of hairs here and there. The Chamberlin-Johnson-DuBose Co. fur reliability is absolute. Leadership is a discernible quantity—no gainsaying that. A town can form exact conclusions as to any store’s position in the various lines of business. And furs simply emphasize the broadly known facts of the C.-J.-D leadership in skill of organization, in the picking of fine pelts, in the collection of fashionable garments and the fairness of prices. In styles—well it’s next to useless to attempt descriptions other than in a general way. All our friends in the furry family are here for the holidays in neck piece and muff, but in new shapes.
