\ new black silk, Cachcmirc
Ethiopien, by Etiennc Charbin
of Lyons.
And why do VIC bring you a
new one with the market full of
we'll known silks? Because the
new maker wants your trade
and makes his prices to get it.
People are just 50 foolish
when they have once secured
your confidence they want to
get rich too fast. But that gives
new men a chance. How rarely
you find a maker or merchant
who can bear success without
getting his head turned and
putting his prices up to the
point that drives you away
This new black silk-In the
first place the maker guarantees
it to wear as well as silk ought
to wear; and so do We. 1t is a
beautiful silk; the black is cN-
actly right for a medium black
neither blue nor smoky; its
luster is pcrtect-a grainy lus-
ter, not a surface shine; its
weight bctokcns an honest silk
there are plenty heavier; but
the priccs-thcrc's the rub

90 cents-that of itself is about
enough.

We do mean acceptable stutfs
Just off from staples. \ year
from now they may be out of

are S7H to 75c instead of IS
