. Every Spigot Upon the Water Pipes
That Connect
with the city's water reservoirs opens up immediately a full
supply whenever turned on in house, store, mill and
workshop.
This Store is a Reservoir, and a big one, too, of almost
everything wanted in a house, big or little, a hotel, an office,
school, workshop or mill, and is accessible from every part
of the city. '
One need only to get into an automobile and pick out
what is wanted and take it away with him.
Or one, or a thousand, can call on the phones for
anything that's wanted, from a wedding ring to a baby's pair
of socks; from a fishing boat to a silken gown; from a
wardrobe to a bathrobe; from a flower vase to an American
flag of any size, and the call will be filled.
You open the Store spigots and see how quickly this big
Reservoir will supply your wants.

More About
Women's New
Fall Suits
Not only are they suits to be worn during the
Fall, however, but they are silk lined and then in
terlined for greater warmth during the really cold
days.
This year wp have been more particular than
ever before about the all-wool fabrics they are
made of they are the best to be had and the tai
loring is beautiful. The new fashions, in fact, call
for the finest skill in -tailoring, for there is much
stitching, arrow point embroidery to finish the
seams, double pockets and oddly shaped panniers
to the coat that are really disguised pockets.
The suits without fur start at $40 for a very
pretty wool silver cloth and they go up to $63.50,
including sturdy mixtures and tweeds, tine velours,
silvertones, burella cloths, cheviots and tricotines.
In the Still Finer Fur-Trimmed Suits
there are plain silvertone and checked velours,
broadcloth and velvets with collars and often cuffs
of nutria, Hudson seal (dyecimuskrat), Australian
opossum and squirrel. These, too, are all silk lined
and interlined. They are in the newest and most fash
ionable colors and mostly exclusive models. $70 to
$175.
Sizes 14 to 20 yeai's.
Women's Velour Coats
Prices $50 to $85
Four styles are in the Coat Store at these prices and prac
' tically every style may be had in black, navy, green and paprika.
One of the best styles is that with a belted back, big collar
and tucks so tiny they look like cording. Another good one has
very straight lines the back relieved by a tucked panel, and
most of the fullness at the sides. The first is $65 and the second
$57.50 ; while two fur-trimmed styles are $50 and $85.
(Klrnt Floor,
Scarcely Anything Wears Better Than
an All-Wool Tweed Suit
Some very new arrivals are of particularly good quality flyijhard,
everyday wear, and they are extremely pretty in their soft, new tones
of brown, green, blue and gray mixtures. A few have an indistinct
stripe.
They would make very smart tailored street suits (tweed being
most fashionable this year for this purpose), sports suits, coats for
every "kind of weather, or separate skirts for sports wear or to wear
under coats.
' All are 54 inches wide and priced at $4 and $5 a yard.
(First Floor, Chestnut) '
Letitia Corsets
Some women declare that they are the most comfortable
corsets made, because they have the trick' of yielding with every
movement a trick due to their exceedingly clever designing.
And this is as true of the heavily boned Letitias as of the lightest
of all the forty models.
Among the latest to come we mention a riding corset of
broche, price $9 ; and a slip-on or negligee corset with almost no
bones at all, price $9; and a tricot with elastic top and long skirt
at $10.
Incidentally among the forty models' will be found low,
medium and high busts. Prices are $5 to $11.

A Rug of Rare
Magnificence
j It is a Royal Kashan well worthy
i of the title. A Royal Kashan of
glorious texture, with a surface of
magical silkiness and a close, tena-
i cious weave.
i It is of "the grand style" in size,
being 17.3x13.7 ft. The richness
of its effect steals on you as you
I study its color schemes, which are
subdued without somberness, the
background being a mellow rose
pattern, a bold yet subtle and fas-
1 cinating design consisting of the
alternation of a beautiful and strik
ing figure of large size with a
profusion of smaller ones.
The lavish imagination and
wealth of detail employed upon
this princely Persian carpet are
shown in the fact that the deep
I border of the rug consists of no
less than eleven stripes of varying
l width, and these are embellished
with running patterns of which no
two are alike. The price of this rug
is $5700. b
