It's really a “find!” For coming just a day
or two prior to Easter this offering is little short

sell them at about the price most stores pay.
You can buy them at wholesale.

THE BIG STORE
IT IS quite well known that no San Antonio store
approaches this in the volume of its Millinery
business. The Joske leadership is held through
the correctness of our styles and because we refuse
to make endless duplicates of a favored hat.
Ours is handiwork and there is no need of a du-
plication—excepting sometime in inexpensive models.
Fairness of price is another help. A Joske Hat at $5 or $lO or
$3O looks its value.
We’ve strengthened every branch of the service
and shall not allow ourselves to get too busy to be
careful and painstaking.
and for Tomorrow
we have arranged a tar broader and better showing
than you have ever found in San Antonio —A display
so replete and all exclusive that not an Easter style
has been omitted. Hundreds of hats at $5.00 $6.50
