aration was worth while.
The entire Silk Salons have taken on a new aspect of color and
manifold enrichment. They are glorious in their wealth of lovely
weaves, comprising a very large showing of American silks, together
with French, Italian, Japanese, Chinese silks in beautiful variety.
V
Satins are the dominant note, closely followed by plain Georgette
crepes. Here it may be well to point out that there is likely to be an exceptional
demand for colors this season, because the makers are curtailing the number of
shades to be used.
Lovely Colors and Large Assortment
In this exhibition the color assortment is particularly fine, suggesting the
glory of early Autumn sunsets and the charm of Autumn woodland.
Colored satins are here in every imaginable shade ; Georgette in such a vari
ety as we have never hitherto shown; white silks, satins an'd brocades in lovely
choice; French metal broches, luxurious velvets, chiffon with velvet broche, metal
impreme satin, black silks, beautiful printed pussy willow taffetas for lining fur
coats and dresses, baronet satins for evening wear and American and Japanese
washable silk in the most splendid variety, all exhibited in crystal cases in full
daylight for critical inspection and all exclusively confined to the Wanamaker Silk
Salons.
While we have not as many high-class novelty silks as in former years, we
certainly have a very good collection, and these are marked at prices in no way
extravagant.
For the entire assortment the price range goes from $1.10 to $30 a yard.
One of the newest groups in the collection is a notable shipment of chiffon
velvets to sell for S7.50 a yard.
For completeness, thoroughness, variety and beauty we believe this formal
exhibit is one that will delight all women of taste and discrimination in fine dress
fabrics.

" What a Difference ,
Music Makes!"
Hundreds of soldiers came swinging up
"Market street the other day, and several of
us went to the window to look tit them.
They were a large body, almost a regi
ment, and is they marched along some
pedestrians stopped and watched them, and
a few girls waved handkerchiefs from the
upper windows of the establishments along
the street.
But there wasn't the enthusiasm there
should have been ; the men themselves
didn't march as they might have done. We
were wondering what was wrong, when
some one remarked :
"What a difference music makes!"
That was it THEY HAD NO BAND.
Music in Your Home Will
Make' a Difference, Too
Dull hours will be brightened; low spirits
will be lightened. '
All the moods that mean depression can
be dissolved by melody.
Music lifts one up and cheers one on. It
stiffens the backbone and improves the
morale. .Music in your home tonight will
make you a better ma'n or a better woman
tomorrow.
