nery Store, either in style or
prices. This week we place
before you a charming col
lection of
trimmed hats at $5
that to foot up the cost of
trimmings would make
them $8.50 hats to say
nothing of our time and la
bor in designing them.
Wear any of them to the
reception or opera, and
they'll vie with the best
there.
We devote much thought
to making creations to your
order. Pick out the mate
rials and we'll do the rest,
and quickly.
