So we invite you to come to I : MILLINERY DEPARTMENT Experience has taught us that there isn't a better way for the GIRLS and LADIES to see and get ? in touch with the new things to be worn and at 1 - o r?/~v tr\ ho Dthe same time learn wnere uiusc aumga ate ^ had, than at an OPENING. That's why we have them. The success of this season's OPENING fl proves it to us more fully than any previous one. U Our showing of HATS this season was larger end . M naturally the sales were larger, not on account of the advance in prices, but from the number sold at reasonable prices. It's the number of HATS \ we count, not the price, for we want the volume of business and STYLISH HATS at REASONABLE J PRICES will get that. So we invite you to come Dand see for yourself. For we have just begun. It is true we have very few of the HATS to show you ; that were here at the OPENING, but there are many Unew ones Here to taKe tneir piace, ior niniieuiaiei^ upon seeing how they were selling, we ordered more, therefore we have a more complete selection than ever before. In addition to the many new ones, Miss Rutledge and her'assistant Miss Kearse have many new creations to show you, so it it's something new and different you wish, we invite you to come. If they haven't trimmed one to please you, we have the TRIMMINGS and SHAPES and they will build one to your individ " 1 ual taste. Come see. , E. A. HOC V 31 IE II PERSONAL MENTION. j ?Mrs. L. C.
