The elaborate trimmings in cordings, manifold tucks, lace inserting and edging, pleating, cord waves, etc., afford such an infinite variety of styles that duplicating is entirely unnecessary, while commonness is not to be thought of. Another Strong Point Lies In the fact that buying is safe this season. The wide stripes, plaids, checks, etc., of other days have disappeared entirely from fashion's realm, solid colors taking their place. Anion the more popular shades aie automobile, apple gree pink, Nile, violet, several blues, greys, lavender, rose, etc., etc. -These Shades Come in All Qualities i, , " And as there are several hundred new waists to choose from, it is -"" all'but impossible that intending buyers can fail to be suited. Just one word on fitting. The question ot a perfect fit is no longer worth considering. We can accomplish that without the . ..slightest trouble and please you better Uian if you went to the ex pense of having your new waist made to order. Now as to the Prices Perfect elegance may be obtained. Highest grade Silk Taffeta Waists for $12.50, $10.00, etc., but if that's too rich, all of fashion's requirements, with quality enough for most people, may be had for, " say $6.50, while some very smart waists, of excellent workman ship aud materials, come in such popular prices as $4.98, $4.49 and downward. Don't let the price bother you, therefore, tor we can . actommodate you at any and every point. Special Shou) of New Silk Waists Open This Week.
