"How to Be Happy
Without Furs
Nobody has found the answer yet and no beauty-loving
woman wants to find the answer, if there was one.
But how to be happy with furs is too easy to tell about. Any
woman who visits our Fur Section these days can tell in a minute
how happy she might be with a dozen different varieties, or any
one of them.
Here are some very good reasons for not any longer doing
without the Furs you have been waiting*. 1
Fur Scarfs in fox, taupe, brown, black land georgette; $49.50
to $125.00 —Muffs to match.
Wolf Scarfs in dove, gray, taupe, brown, georgette and black;
$25.00 to $75.00.
. Lynx, Seal, Sealine, Mole, Moline, Nutria and Beaver; $25.00
to $225.00.
Children's Fur Sets; (for little tots of all sizes) $2.98 to $25.00.
These are gift suggestions that are practical as well as dressy,
therefore acceptable without question by any Miss or Mrs. who
has no furs.
