llavo you scon tho pretty Sunshades nutl Parasols for tho pres
ent season T That is, have you seen a full collection of all the
novelties and beauties that fashion lias decreed shall be worn
-with smarl toilets, for walking, coaching, etc.?
They're AH Here Today
And form a lovely object lesson on refined elcgauco and oxquis
ito taste. The most astonishing featuro about our parasol anil
sunshade stock this year, however, is tho amount of prettiuoss
that comparatively little money will buy. In all our twenty
years of selling, Scranton cash never wont so far as today
White Parasols
of pin white silk, with cord bars
and deep stripe borders are much
sought for. No end to our assort
ment. Plain white centers, with
rich corded stripe edge In plain col
ors are also wanted, while lace ln
sertlngs and solid color borders are
considered quite swell.
Lace Inserting effects are dainti
ly introduced into plain white China
silk Parasols, while the airiest and
dressiest creations aro modeled In
breezy chiffon ruflles and gathering
or ruffled all over In guzzy white
China silk of high lustre.
Then, thfre'a the velvet dimmed
parasol, a revival of tho days of
Auld Lang Syne. These have fancy
silk covers In plain shades, polka
dots, etc., and while quiet In gen
eral appearance, are exceedingly
effectlvo when used as a color con
trast. The children never got so much
attention from us before In tho
way of parasols. Styles aro Just as
pretty as those for the grown up
folks, and the variety Is quite as
great. Parasol prices this year be
gin at 19 cents and run to $19 if you
want to.
Ladies' Waists
In Prints or White
We've got low priced waists in
abundance ond better values In
them than you can get elsewhere.
Today, however, we're talking
mainly of flno shirt waists with
stylo and beauty in them.

"The death angel seemed to linger at
your home, that your parents so long
united in life, might not long be sep
arated In death.
"The sweet nnd gentle Influences of
the long and beautiful life just closed,
with all their tender 'mother memories,'
will abide with you; they cannot bo
lost, but through them she will yet
speak to you In tho days, as they come
and go.
"You have comfort, too, In that you
were able to minister to her in tho old
home, that she could como back again
to you and the old homestead, where
tho memories crowd of all that Is sweet
and dear of her own active, Christian
life, her services always rendered so
earnestly and Joyfully In behalf of her
homo, her church, or any Christian
charity.
"Although she has been away from
Dunmore for so many years, her name
Is cherished still, and she Is remem
bered for the 'good work and alms
deeds that she did.' 'She resteth from
her labors, and her works do follow
her.'
"This strange, sad world is but our
Father's school,
All chance and change His love shall
grandly overrule;
How sweet to know tho trials which
we cannot comprehend,
Have each their own divinely purposed
end."
''Praying that the 'Great Comforter'
may enable you Joyfully to rest In the
Father's will, wo remain, In abiding
sympathy, tho Ladles' Aid society of
tho Dunmore Presbyterian church.
