Voiles=“the Most Sought After Weaves=Voiles That Come
to Us Direct From Paris and Specially Priced.
As Emerson said: “If a man build a better mouse trap or preach a better sermon than hisi neighbor, even though he build his house in the wilderness, the world will find him out
and wear a beaten path to his door.”
"The world will find him"—that’s the point—the reason of this advertisement and the reducing, tor a few days of some prices : that are already more than interesting.
Let one woman buy a skirt length from this and a dozen will “find out” the quality and come.
And a dozen would find it out from each of .this first dozen and the “beaten path” is clearly outlined to these imported voiles. But we shorten the process; we put it in the newspa
pers and you all come on the same day.
We reduce the price and you all come early in the morning. ’ 1
And wherein is this Voile great—better?
It is our own importation direct to us from Paris.
Straight to us through the Atlanta custom house. And Paris has learned
.■something about wearing Voiles that is inimitable, yet by getting them direct
these are, at regular prices, below the prices of voiles bought from New York
houses; 25c to 50c less a yard.
But it’s what you get in quality, not where it comes from, that really
counts.
We wouldn’t need to write “imported by us” all over this page to convince
you once you had a piece of this Voile between your fingers.
Rub it together. Sounds almost like sandpaper, it’s so firm and crisp.
So hard twisted and so thoroughly singed that you can see no more trace
of the wool fiber of which it is woven than as though it was a piece of wire.
Wiry, but how graceful, how adaptable to those folds and plaits and sweep
ing curves that can be successfully accomplished only in Voile.

And In Black Voiles, Too.
Black, rather over-shadowed and outdone by colored weaves for the past five or six seasons,
has come into its own again—stronger than ever—and of all black weaves Voile has the most
devotees. Popular to a point that makes scarce. ,
Black Voile is a great feature in these imported weaves.
