John Wesley,
the Founder of the
' Great Methodist
Episcopal Church
was quite a poor man, but his
disposition to do what he could
led him to look for opportunities
and find people to help.
It was a habit with him when
he saw the need to say:
"This ought to be done and
I must find the way."
In his early days at
Newcastle- upon - Tyne, he.
endeavored, so Bishop Simpson
once said, to start an orphan
school, and made the arrange
ments with the builders, who
required one hundred pounds
($500), which he did not have in
hand. He was obliged to take
a train to meet an engagement.
Just as he was starting off a
Quaker in his own town came
in and said:
"John, I had a strange dream about
thee last night. I saw thee with a
parcel of little children in a storm,
and thee was trying to shelter them m
and had no place, so when I woke up I "
wrote thee this check for an hundred
pounds."
Many of us dream of things
that ought to be done, but we
put off writing the checks. If it
is put in our hearts to do things,
let us at once write the checks.

September 10, 1921.

Presenting the New Autumn
Fashions for Girls and
Young Women
I The ideal of every young woman's dress is
to express youth, charm, piquancy.
That ideal is fulfilled in every
one of the
original and charming gowns
to be shown
Monday.
Fortunate the young women who will wear
them, for they will satisfy to the brim the innate
craving of every feminine heart to express her
self artistically and beautifully in her dress !
To step in here and choose them is as good
as stepping into .the most famed dressmaker's
in Paris and having some lovely creation de
signed to order. For here is all the originality,
all the exquisite taste, all the artistic perfection
of line and fabric and hue you could secure by
that ccean-crossing method. And at a vastly
smaller price.
From $55 to $120 one many choose the love
liest of afternoon, dinner and evening gowns,
and the perfection of cloth tailored gowns.
Here is a poppy-colored . chiffon that will
make of the right young girl a vivid flame.
In this dusky henna velvet-brocaded chiffon,
wth its rich silver tissue brocade, some one will
look like a wonderful medieval painting.

Fyr Wraps That Will
Make a Cold
Winter Pleasurable
Madam Fashion agrees that this will be a
sharp Winter. She has prepared some lovely
wraps that for warmth might safely venture to
the North Pole, yet for grace and pliability are
as supple as satin, and as easy to wear.
This long coat of shimmering brown kolin
sky fur, for instance, at $760. Or this one of
Alaska seal at $600. Or this of Hudson seal
(dyed muskrat) with huge collar of skunk, at
$625. It has cleverly contrived pocket substi
tute for a muff, and its lining blooms with em
broidered irises.
A three-quarter Persian lamb coat is $700.
A long cloak of silvery Scotch mole is $450. A
jaunty hip-coat of molesldn with squirrel collar
and cuffs is $325.
And these are but a few of the many beau
tiful wraps waiting-in the Fur Store to make the
coldest Winter pleasurable to any woman who
acquires them.
(Second Floor, Climtnut)
The Mew coats magnificent garments of the
finest textures and richest furs are also ready.
Priced $85 to $225.
And the new tailored suits, from $30 to $225.

The Seahon Starts Early
in New Dress Fabrics
Looking around tho Dress Goods Store, ono
would say that Autumn has arrived. Such quan
tities of the new materials have already come!
And there aro many interesting novelties which
will play a largo, part in tho coming fashions.
Ono is a new coating of the softest, silkiest
texture. It is corded and is somothing like a
French Montagnac, but much lighter in weight.
It is $10 a yard.
Another new coating is a cashmere velour
with a velvet' finish. It is $8 n yard. Some of
tho handsomest tailored suits and dresses will
choose a new kitten's-ear cloth with a silkliko
sheen which makes it appear changeable in color.
In gray, bamboo or chestnut brown, it is $8 a yard.
Broadcloths are coming to tho front for streot
costumes. There is a wonderfully good assort
ment of tho now colors at $4 a yard.
Among tho other suitings and dress fabrics
nro tho now duvotyns, velours, tricotines, poiret
twills, serges, plain and embroidered, poplins,
chocks, plaids and mixtures, new plaid nnd striped
skirtings and fine Bolivia coatings.

Paris
Millinery!
There never were two words just like
those, and there never will be, in women's
minds.
Paris! City of sparkle and charm and
gayety, and beautiful clothes.
Millinery! Not merely "hats," mind
you, but MILLINERY those wonderful
creations to which the true Paris milliner
gives as much thought and study and in
spiration as an artist bestows on his master
piece. It is millinery like this that we present
Monday. In this exquisite collectiort of
Paris hats there are masterpieces from the
studios of such millinery artists as the
incomparable ,
Caroline Reboux
Marcelle Demay Jeanne Lanvin
Maria Guy Lewis
Lucie Hamar Estelle Lucas
Jeanne Due Odette
Evelyn Varon Eliane
Alex and others
Each is an inimitable study. Each is
not only striking and original, but pos
sesses that most important qualification of
all in a beautiful hat it is perfect for a
lovely woman's adorning.
We. shall not try to tell thejiew lines and
shapes and colors and materials. We might
as well describe a picture as made of so
much canvas and such and such colored
paints! The true idea would remain unex
pressed. Each millinery star in the Parisian sky
has her own way of shining. And to get
the light as it shines in the Rue de la Paix
and the Rue Royale, you will need to see the
hats for yourself, which you are most cor
dially invited to do on Monday morning.
