WHATTHESHOPSISi|
ARE .SHOWING
To dress well is expensive, but a j
clover woman can be smartly dressed | <
at Hie minimum expense, for new j:
things are constantly being shown in
the shops which help to solve her
problem. Never has footwear beeni.
so extreme in styles, so high in price, ] i
nor so fascinatingly attractive as it is I
this season, and to have different foot- li
wear for each costume is a delight
ful impossibility for many. However
the new pumps of soft gray kid, shown
by 1110 Walk-Over Boot Shop, 22G
Market street are a smart novelty in !
footwear which are not only most at- ,
tractive, but practical as well to wear
with almost, any costume. They are
shown in a beautiful Swiss model,
with narrow straps crossed over the
instep and fastened on each side with
fl single button. I
A Hint From Paris
"Taffeta, of course for suits and j
frocks" says all Paris, and "taffeta,
smartly combined with serge of con
trasting color" is the very last word
of the creators of Fashion. Astrlch's,
Fourth and Market, streets, are show-1
ing these stunning suits, and several
strikingly attractive models are spe-'
daily priced at .iust ?25. One is of crisp !
l'la- k taffeta, with a broad band of!
navy sergo giving a smart tlnlsh at the
bottom of the skirt. The jacket is l
banded and belted with serge which
also appears at collar and cufTs. The!
double advantage of serge for early
wear, and the chic coolness of taffeta
for all summer use, makes these suits
an especially good selection for the
woman who wishes one suit to serve
for both Spring and summer.

I ready offering a splendid assortment
lof Easter egg dyes, which are very
(simple and easy to use, brilliantly
j beautiful in color and ,lust as cheap as
the ordinary kind, for they sell for
just 5c and 10c a package. Gorgas'
I also offer some specially fine choco-,
lates, which are always enjoyed by
those who appreciate the best of
"sweets," though they are especially
welcome at Easter.
Easter Egg*
At last eggs arc popularly priced,
'and the wise housewife will take full
I advantage of her opportunity and use
quantities of eggs, often allowing
them to take the place of vegetable
or expensive meats. Especially for
the Easter season are esgs in demand
land the Studebaker Grocery Store,
Second street at the crossing of State,
offers, specially selected fine white
eggs, whose freshness is assured.
They make the most tempting of Eas
ter baskets, not only for children, but
to give the invalid a friendly Easter
greeting, as well, and charming bas
kets of various kinds may be obtained
at Studebakers which they are glad
lo arrange with eggs, or sweetmeats,
for Easter giving.
Easter Egg Cooking and Other Things
Of course If your cooking is simply
a matter of boiling water for the
Easter eggs, most any kind of store
will do, but if you want a kitchen
range which will cook your meals suc
cessfully for many years—one which
is economical to operate, easy to clean
and to regulate, and equipped with a
dependable open which bakes evenlv
and well—then you will choose your
range with care, compare It with "oth
ers, investigate its reputation, and
after doing that, you will no doubt de
cide, bs so many others have done—-
to buy one of the splendid Penn Es
ther ranges sold exclusively in Har
risburg by the Himes Hardware Store
