A DRESS OCCASION
Because Seventy=Five Serge Dresses Are $7.98 and $8.75
Instead of SIO.OO and $11.75
And still their chief charm is not that they are underpriced, but that they are
so very attractive.
They are dresses so made and trimmed that women would want them for their
style and good looks with little thought of their prices.
We consider it very good fortune that we can sell such dresses underprice!
The material is a fine, soft French serge, that seemingly will always be good
style—in navy, brown, garnet and black.
A number of models—one has a waist with plaited back, the “dugout” low
collar of velvet, wide revers and little frillings on the sleeves—another shows
large velvet buttons, velvet edged belt and turn back cuffs of striped silks.
Another is smart with white and black buttons and an odd little V shaped yoke
that is much liked in the fur season
We do not believe that such pretty dresses could possibly stay here long at
these prices.
Come in the morning.
With these are-- x
Specially Priced Bedford Cord Dresses at $12.50
A rather wide wale Bedford cord in navy, taupe, brown and black
Made along splendid lines; they fit gracefully. Very smartly fixed about the
neck with a small sailor collar of corded silk, a silk bow of contrasting shade and
covered buttons—buttons trim the sleeves, too. A suede belt to match is stitched
in the shade of bow at the neck. You might look long before finding so much pret
tiness—and at $12.50.

PHYSICIANS TESTIFY
COUNTESS DID NOT
DIE BY DROWNING
GOSHEN. N. Y., Nov. 21.—That the
Countess Rosa Mensehik Szabo. for
whose murder Attorney Burton W.
GibsoVi is on trial for his life here, was
strangled to death, was the declaration
made under oath today by Dr. A. P.
Hasking, assistant county physician of
Hudson county. New Jersey. Dr. Hash
ing was present when Dr. Otto H.
Schultze, coroner's physician for New
York, performed the autopsy upon the
woman who mbt her death while boat
ing with Gibson on Greenwood lake on
July 16 last.
He declared that the autopsy revealed
clearly that drowning was not thecause
of death.
“My opinion is," he said, “that death
was caused by asphyxia from strangu
lation produced by force from without
on tile upper part of the throat and
floor of the mouth."
Justice Tompkins questioned the
witness to bring out certain facts for
the jury. Although Dr. Hasking re
mained unshaken on cross-examination
his damaging testimony did not seem
to worry Gibson.
Dr. Schultze followed Dr Hasking
and also testified that the cause of the
countess’ death was strangulation and
not drowning. With the conclusion of
the testimony of Dr. Schultze, at 12:05
o’clock, the state rested its case.
