The New Wash Goods
Counters all abloom with thorn. To paint tho charms of these dainty spring-time fabrics in a few
words is like trying to reproduce tho glories of a Venetian sunset with a single sweep of the brush.
Never were cotton goods more enticing. Never did the imagination exorcise greater play or result in
more bewitching effects than are shown in our 1914 displays. Fancies are fresh and exhilirating as a
whiff of cooling mountain air on a hot summer day, As these fleecy, many colored fabrics shimmer
proudly from counter and shelves one forgets the stern, insistent rigors of winter and thinks only of the
joys and beauties of summer.
