BEAUTIFUL silks
Yhonsands of Yards of The
Most BeailtifUl.
third shipment COMES
——- " ——
And in Spite of Rain the Sales
Have Begun.
I quit my “continued sto
ry” on yesterday, while in the
silk department, but the villian
still pursued her, and today, in
spite of war or rumors of war,
an d though municipal adminis
trations are changing and the
rain is falling and the Masons j
are gathering in Rome—why I
propose to pick up the silk thread
of my story, waste no further
time in skirting about and re
sume the narrative.
“To have paid your respects
to this department,” remarked
Manager Sam Powers, as he
8 ood in front of an ocean of
folded billows of silken beauty,
•‘would have been easier on
Saturday than it will be today,
for we have this morning open
ed up a shipment of the justly
famous shirt waist silks, which
adds scores of patternsand thou
sands of yards to our big stock
of silks.”
And while he piled down a
dozen of these beautiful patterns
before me, he continued talking.
Said he: “Every fashion mag
azine for the past three seasons
has opened up with an article,
the object of which was to rele
gate the shirt waist and sepa
rate skirt—but all in vain. Dame
fashion has not yet succeeded
in routing a combination in
woman’s dress that is so happy,
blending economy and beauty, i
comfort and dressy effects.’’
The shirt waist and separate
skirt has come to stay, seems to
be a verdict from womankind in
t spite of the biased charge of the
judgess, Ohl Lady Fashion.
Recognizing this as a condi
tion and not a theory,Bass Bros
& (lo.,have prepared to meet the
emergency.
"1 his is the third shipment
already this season,” said Mr.
Powers, and all the time he was
doubling, folding, catching to
gether and otherwise arranging
the blend of beautiful colors to
catch and captivate my mascu
line eye.
Ihese new arrivals were taf
fetas in fancy plaids, stripes and
checks, and rangedin price from
39 cents to sl.
with these the swellest
development of the season is the
rutiled taffeta skirt. They are
111,11 'clous creations when view
ed on a fashion plate or grace
Pm} gliding— they are made in
Culms of every hue, though the
most popular is the solid black.
Jn this department I found
a ‘ ?0 a most elegantly entrancing
ll( ‘ ol black brocaded silks with
B ,( ’s grain grounds and rich sat
in figures of a conventional de
sig !1 , also the same style of
ground with vayadere satin
stripes.
1 here can be nothing richer
11 ‘tn entire costume or a sepa
latl skirt, and the money figures
<qually interesting, being
,ll 'll on a rock bottom ground
'* cents, and t woven up to a
J1 25 stripe.
Vi. Powers showed me a big
1,16 of changeable and solid col
°^ s >n taffetas. In the profusion

khandsome calling or street
costumes, the most popular this
season is the silk grenadines.
'These are made up in scores of
combinations, in solid black,
colored figuresand s'ripes, over
color or black silks and trimmed
with lace, ribbons dr passemen
terie.
(Not finding that last word in
the wardrobe of my silk vocabu
lary, I asked Mr. Powers to spell
it for me and therefore have it
right.)
In making this story “to be
continued” I.want to advertise
you to look out for the next
