But what of this store in mid-October?
Well, to consider October from our standpoint, you would have to go back t

And some of you have been away and do not know all that has beon afoot
Here at the right as you enter—Ribbons, Embroideries, Laces, Gloves and
admiration.
Going on still on the left side—Umbrellas, Parasols; then counters and shelrj

Everything for’morning, evening and after candle light. But we must go on. i
