A Wide Selection of Silk aend
Dress Fabrics.
A selection with a wide price range but a still greater
style range a selection that's the outgrowth of extremely care
ful, discriminating choosing from one of the newest and most
exclusive of fall labrics. Parisian or New York stores are not
showing patterns more exquisite than you'll find here, nor de
signs of more individuality.
It's a season of satin messalines, marquisettes, velvets,
voiles and poplins among silks, and among dress goods Scotch
mixtures, broadcloths and reversible woolens are prominent.
These various materials are here in an excellent variety of
colorings and weights and at prices that will compare favora

Underwear.
It was not chance or luck that caused us to tie up with the
Munsing line. It was a decision reached after a careiul test
and investigation of different kinds ot underwear, and the wish
to offer our trade only the kind which proved its worth. Ask
any Munsing wearer it he or she would wear any other kind,
and then get into the great Munsing family of satisfied wearers
of the best underwear at any price. Why experiment with the
unknown when the proven best is ready to hand 1 We have
laid in a full line, including your size, at the price you feel able
to pay.
