These days. Theie's so much to wiite about, and so little space to
bay it in.
But why should we buiden you with a long ligmaiole these
days? The stoie is an open piomenade while the holiday tiade lasts.
Come and go as you please. You'll always be welcome, nnd Ave
minutes spent on oui gieat main floor is woith much moie to you
than an houi's leading.
Toi instance, as you cntei the Annex dooi you pass an elegant
show of fine Table Linens lich and fashionable 'Silks, fancy Diess
Goods, and n woild ot Dolls, Buc-a-Biac, Games, Etc., and anive
among the
Silk Waists
and Dressing Sacques
They occupy much hpace and the collection is supeib as to vai
iety and styles, but they'ie light-pnced and easy to pui chase.
The Great
Cloak Stock and Furs
Lies only a few steps away, and. as it happens, the holldny tiade
just comes in as we feel we ought to begin to unload goods of this
flasi,; theie ae many bnigain tid-bits that tue sine to make fi lends
fOl lib,
The Handkerchief
Stock Is Bewildering
To borne people because of its magnitude, but that needn't wouy
you, it you only give a hint about the pi ice you would like to pay.
Leather Goods
and Fancy Needlework
Air attincliiiK much attention thib season. So h the peitumoiy and
toilet loquisltc stock. Reitnon they'ie now dennitmoiitij and pi ires
aie keon.
