Look to this great Department Store for Styles and all kinds of
merchandise to satisfy every want. We have mustered together
the very smartest merchandise to be had anywhere. To look
at our array of piece goods, and silks, and to behold the crisp
ness of every department makes one think that the high cost and
the scarcity of goods is a joke. But we looked ahead and pre
pared for our customers: therefore we are receiving deliveries
every day.

Case after case of millinery is arriving daily and our great store
is now spink-spank for the trade. Our milliner, Miss Owens,

and we extend to the public a cordial invitation to walk thru
this department and inspect this season’s beautiful creations.
Then, come again for we expect to show something new nearly
every day in millinery, ladies’ ready-to-wear from now until June.
