A Stroll In Shopland
-BY EVELYN WREN-
I N olden days the marketplace was
lined with little stalls or booths
where merchants displayed their
wares. This was when the styles
were robes and togas, not the artis
tically simple costumes which fair
women don to-day. Our forbears
did not enter huge department stores
and select from large stocks, but
were limited to the small choice dis
played by Antonius, the draper, or,
else must needs leave their demands
unfilled.
Modern women are prone to do
much the same way They enter
their favorite store, disturbing them
selves and many others because on
this particular occasion they cannot
find exactly what suits their fancy.
Perhaps to-day their favorite store
has a magnificent supply of Paris
hats when the desire is for silken
hose. The store across the street has
the silken hose, the on? next door
has the dainty underwear so dear
to the feminine heart.
Let’s get down to business. No
store can have bargains in every
thing all the time. The way to make
the dollars go farthest is to select
each store's bargains, each store's
“best buy,” and become the most eco
nomical, wisest shopper of these busy,
progressive times.
That’s what this little talk is for
—just to give you the advantages of
Atlanta’s choicest goods sold at the
most gratifying prices. The Sunday
American shopper will do a little
detective work and by reason of her
aggressive curiosity have ready each
Sunday a list of splendid opportu
nities for Monday’s shopping.
• • *
To-morrow morning go to M. Rich
A Bros. Co., if you wish to obtain

In all the distinctive, fashionable col
ors. The price list is the most in
teresting i»art of it all. These suits
are worth from $19.75 to $150. Any
thing from $16.75 to $60 will buy a
suit that will grace the wearer and
be a complete satisfaction. Silk
dresses share In tills reduction and
are daintily fragile or durable just
as occasion demands.

J. M. High Co., has one of its re
markable Glove sales in progress. The
2.000 pairs will i ot long clamor for
wearers for the wise women of At
lanta know that High’s glove sales

for $1.88 is what J. M. High Co., of
fers on to-morrow morning. Go ear

There is a vision of Parisian dain
tiness at High’s. It is In the cos
tume department. The quaint, artis
tic touches of French designers make
the evening gowns adorable, their
loveliness setting women’s hearts to

will appear during grand opera week
if beautiful gowns at low prices art
appreciated.

J. P. Allen & Co., enthralls the
sight with a beautiful millinery stock.
The hats are exquisite production*

opera will be an intense pleasure if
an Allen hat Is worn, for what great
er enjoymeat cam a woman know
than that of giving pleasure to oth
ers? An Allen hat pleases the wear
er and the beholder. Can more be
said ?

Since Infancy we have understood
the value of a rood foundation. The
Keely Co., goes farther and supplies
the foundation. With an American
lady or Lyra corset the question of
good gowning le decided. The cor
set which produces perfect lines
needs no further recommendation as
the necessity of opera, week. To buy
an American Lady or Lyra corset is
to invest In style, healthfulness and
the supreme satisfaction of comfort
