Millinery Department
Warm Bedding becomes then a necessity. Though
we are having cool mornings and nights during
this early Fall period, it won’t compare in any way
with the real cold nights that we are to have within
a very few short weeks. These cold nights make
you feel fresh and invigorated in the morning, but
you must have Blankets and Comforts of sufficient
weight and warmth so that you can get a good
night’s rest.
Our Blanket and Comfort section is ready in
every detail. Just the right qualities arid weights
— an,d prices, as always, satisfactory.
The Scope of Models in this Department is Broad
Enough to Satisfy Every Woman's
Preference!
It would seem as if our milliner made an unusual
effort to provide a model suitable for each and
every type—in consequence of which you will find
hats that are not alone fashionable but smart in
outline, and above all else, becoming. We must
lay emphasis, particularly, upon the manner in
which the hats are trimmed, for it is the ability to
know just where to place an ornament, a feather,
or some other ^trimming idea that makes the hat
fasMonablersmart and becoming.
