We'll Pay the Charges on An Interest
ing Trip.
Dame fashion is throwing
to the winds this spring. So radical are her departures, and
withal so beautilul so fetching that you will find frequent
trips to this home of good fashions more than ever filled with
interest and satisfaction.
Remember, we are ready to pay the freight. II you pur
chase to the amount of $10, we'll pay for your one-way ticket;
purchases of $20 or over entitle you to your fare both ways.
The First Authoritative Showing of
Tailored Suits for Spring,
And there is much to interest and attract every fashion-following
womau. Never before were styles so beautiful.
The interest that always attends the first glimpse of the
Spring styles is this year heightened by the novel departments
from the beaten path of Fashion.
The Coats are cut shorter 24 to 26 inches. The Skirts
are slightly fuller from the hips to the knees, and . frequently
caught at the belt in odd, irregular draped effects. The odd
use ot seams emphasizes the tendency to get away from the
plain tailored to the fancy draped effects.
Especially of note among the materials are the new
Eponges, Coverts, Whipcords, and Serges, in new and pleasing
shades of taupe, leather brown, gray, mode, navy, blue, old
blue, checks, and stripes.
The prices range from 12.00 to $40.00.
It will be a pleasure for us to show you these delightful
new creations here in Appareling Section today.
Trust Companies of the Country.
Total Resources of Over $5,490,000,000, Showing a Gain of
More Than $322,000,000 Assets.
United States Mortgage Trust Co. is distributing the 1012 edition of "Trust
Companies of the United States." In the preface President John W. Platten
states: "The record of trust company achievement has never been more strongly
marked by constantly increasing evidences of rare combination of progressiveuess
and conservatism than during the year ended June 30, 1912. More and more
clearly has it been shown that the trust company's functions and its opportunities
are capable of a legitimate expansion unrealized in former years. As a result, the
trust companies of the country stand higher today than ever before in public confi
dence, material resources and usefulness to the communities they serve."
Reports of 1,579 companies are given, with total resources of over $6,490,000,-
000, showing a gain in assets of over $322,000,000, compared with 1911, and of over
1,60U,OUO,UOO since 19U8.

$40 Astrachan Coats $28.50
During the season just coming to a close we sold many of these coats.
No other coats were so greatly admired and many expressed surprise
that such handsome coats should be sold at a price so moderate.
The maker of these coats advised us recently that he had a surplus of
several thousand yards of the two qualities of Astrachan of which these
coats are made. Informed us that he proposed making these cloths up into
coats at cost in order to use up the surplus cloth. Knew exactly what these
coats were that at $40.00 and $60.00 they were exceptional value and
that at $28.60 and $34.60 they would be extraordinary coat bargains. Con
tracted for 26 each first shipment came in Saturday.
Made of Imported Ural Astrachan, noted for its rich elegance.
Deep shawl collars generous cuffs heavy satin lining throughout
great big handsome silk frog and loops with drop you can afford one of
these coats on the $40 you save $11.60 on the $60 you save $16.60.
