LADIES' SKIRTS.
We confine our skirt buying to manufacturers who make a specialty of

way to those made by a manufacturer endeavoring to make everything In the
way of ready-to-wear.-
Skirts are not only better, hut tho prices are less.
We'll start description of skirts at $5.00, although there's scarcely a month
of the year we don't have a "Special" skirt sale at $3.50 or $3.73 and we've sold
at those prices some extraordinary skirts.

Skirt is made with four small side pleats alternating with double box
pleats. Colors are navy blue, black and brown.
At $7.50

med in refined quiet taste.
