The height of millinery
elegance at the lowest
possible prices
There are just two reasons why you cannot make any mis
take in buying your millinery here. In the first place assort
ments are fireatest- where other stores show them by dozens,
we show them by hundreds. Then, on the other hand, con
sider the vast amount of business we do every season and you
will have the other icason the lowncss of price.
Most milliners
make it their business
to get ALL they can
out of you for a hat
while thev have
in
h
shin
or in other words.
you pay double prices
very often.
Not so here. All
our hats are marked
in plain figures
marked to sell at
prices that WILL sell
