there will be so much to see that no

cial event, as an orchestra has been
engaged to furnish music, and ev
crjthing has taken on a gala ap
pearance. The unique front of this
new store, with the deep, roomy
promenade at the entrance, and the
tine windows paneled in walnut. Is
considered one of the most attrac
tive In the State, and the Interior
of the .store, charmingly finished in
ivory and green appointments, is a
fitting background for the beautiful
merchandise which this store is fea
turing.

The Charm of Cretonnes
The charm of the assortment of

terns which cannot be found else
where, —the unique and unusual
kinds that Kive a home its air of dis

plete that it is possible to choose
Just the right color tones to bring

for the dining room in blue, while
light ivory backgrounds with dainty
flower and rosebud effects are fea

color tones and the smart new cre
tonnes with touches of black are ef
fective suggestions for living rooms
and porches.
For Sultry Weather
• The sultry weataher that we have
The sultry weather that we have
depressing, but a glass of iced tea at
luncheon and supper will be found
most, refreshing and gently stimulat
ing. The Grand Union Tea Company,
20S North Second street, offers just
now a specially blended tea for sum
mer use. This tea is of sufficient
strength so that just a small quan
tity may be scalded in the morn
ing and left in a cool place, to be
freely diluted with ice water just be
fore serving. It is a beautiful, clear
amber color, and is so economical
and so satisfying a summer beverage
that a pitcher of this tea should be
kept on ice all the time.
