Also the opening vi w traps
and. Costumes, Easter
Gloves and ParasOls on
the same days.
The glorious Eastertide comes
IN apace. Twill soon be here !;
Utmost too early in the season for
you and for us. You see our vast
plans will not be
completed in time to properly Gel
ebrate our Opening Days.
Along the path Of progress the
alterations in our store march
but to us somewhat slow
y yet merrily onward; to you,
perchance, little less SO, but, new
with the regularity and
get-there tendency of the Yale
stroke.
Have you noticed that we new
er allow an opportunity to slip in
which we can show our apprecia-
ton of the splendid loyalty of
your patronage Nor shall we
now, for this unseemly, but una
racket in the march of
improvement has moved us to
pass "a Compensation for Dis
turbance Act" by which you will
be entitled to at least ONE OR MORE
SOUVENIR BARGAINS IN EACH DE-
on our opening days.
They shall be even more marked
in value than heretofore.
A flower garden in full bloom
is the picture brought to mind
when looking through our Mill
merry rooms. To miss the oppor-
tunity of examining the important
selection of Spring Millinery will
be loss that no lady can afford
to take. The most recherche
models of foreign modistes and
the latest productions of Yankee
skill from our own workrooms.
Toques prominently lead in the
drift to smaller bonnets. Hats not
quite SO large as last season. Fan
cy braid effects will lead; these
are of fancy crowns and Milan
rim and vice-versa. A combina-
ton of fine Milan braids and the
old Neapolitan will be good.
Russian hair braids will be in
demand.
Flowers will reign supreme.
This year artists have become
makers Of flowers; result, a vision
Of inspiration. Look at the handi-
work Of those world famous Pari-
slams: Lavanous Freres, Castilin,
Molecat, Coppin, Mathie,
Nine WE. Morris, A. Boulingre,
whose liberal shipments of their
choicest creations add halo to
our American efforts. Mareschal
Neils, Jacqueminots and La
France roses make lovely masses
of bloom and blossom. Forget
and Pansies are in the
foreground. Variety rules, and
foliage of every description will
be used.
How are Laces2 Better than
ever, and Black Chantilly is
queen, 2 to 8 inches wide. The
Vandyke point is newest. Fancy
Laces2 Be careful. Black bead
ed edges, beaded laces and gilt
and silver laces are safe. Ostrich
feathers, too, in all their glory.
If you have a taste for Ribbons
prepare to indulge it. Which
will you have2
Rosy lilacs and pale lavenders
Bright golden yellowa
Rich new egg plant purplea
Delicate blue gray shades
Rrie fon1 iro a
stem green's
These, with true blue, pale
baby blue, clear rose pink and
China blue, will surely do.
Scotch Tartar Ribbons are an
ultra novelty, pretty one, and
we predict a popular one, appeal
ing as it does to the universal
barbaric strain which delights in
color.
Satin Edge eros Grains will
hold over, and new shades Of vel
vet Ribbons will be rich feature
of the Easter bonnet. The new
est color most talked up is Auber,
CINE, or egg plant. These are
shown in velvet .pansies and or.
chids, to be worn on black and
acorn-tinted hats and bonnets. AL
sorts of yellow will be popular
such as:
MATS, corn color. Creme, ivory white.
Bouton dor buttercup. Gluten, deep cream
Ebenier, deeper shade Of corn.
Paille, straw color.
So don't be afraid of yellow
you can even go SO far as terra
Gotta, but stop there and don't
tarry long.
Sky blue is warm favorite now, but beware;
Scabience, a deep shade of heliotrope' ana
Prune, still deeper;
Poupre, intense red;
Ceres, fawn color;
Beige, wood shade
Cocquelicot, poppy red
Colombo, perfect shade of dove
Are the colors you may use
