This is Valentine Silk Week
An extra event in which we are offering thousands of yards
ot the most reliable Foulards made.
Valentine Shedwater Foulard.
This season has great changes in Foulard Silk styles, some
of them being entirely new ideas in borders. There are beauti
ful Persian designs, others are of color contrasting with the
body of the goods and still others are in monotone effects; also
the more staple polka spots, moon spots, planet dots, etc.
The perfect shedwater finish of the Valentine Silks protects
the surface of the silk absolutely and thus prevents rain spots
in this way doubling or tripling the ordinary life of a Foulard
gown or waist. Valentine Foulards are made in several widths.
On sale this week $1 to $2.50.
Special Display Other Foulards
In addition to the above display of Valentine Shedwater
Silks, we are showing over 2,000 yards of the lamous Cheney
Bros., Sterns, Migels and Eisenman's Shower Proof Foulards.
The color and pattern range is most comprehensive. Most of
the designs are exclusive. Prices range horn 45 cents to 6.
12 Pieces Pure Silk Foulards,
45 Cents.
The material is all silk and a good serviceable quality, the
colors are navy, old blue, brown and black grounds with geo
metrical figures of white. A commendable silk in every way
and at a very low price.
Undoubtedly this will be the greatest season for Foulard
Silks that any of us has ever seen. Already the demand has
been enormous many makers are sold up for the season. Un
der these conditions these Foulards at forty-five cents are well
worth your consideration.
