There is a decided ten
dency this season toward
,the better grades and hig'h
er class in Hats and other
Millinery Goods. We have
them, but as usual our
prices are wonderful both
in the intrinsic values and
the "Style" values.
Also Hats are better look
ing than forseveral seasons
past. The styles are be.
coning and the fact that
considerable more materi- -
als are used in trimming
themn makes it look like an
old-time season of "Hats
Beautiful."
