Originality. What? The
power of producing rare com.
binatlons of thought" is one
definition. Here is an origi-
nal product-will interest all
women.
Ginghams have been ex.
pressed in many designs of
weave and color. Bedford
Cords have held sway for
Mems Trousers and Women's
Costumes, satin streaks have
figured in many textiles of the
wooden class, but it remained
for a Yankee craftsman to
combine Bingham, Bedford
Cord and Satin Stripe in a
single fabric. That fabric is a
triumph and its victory is
made complete by the color
skill with which stripes and
plaids have been combined
Technically they are known as
Bedford Cord Ginghams, 80
inches, 45c. % varieties.
The same genus has pro-
duccd Zephyr Gin N'ams in
many stripes and plaids with
satin stripes. They, too, are
among the Spring buds of
Dress Notions. 80 inches,
40 cents, 20 varieties.
Ofcourse you will be pleased
to know that every piece of
the Anderson Ginghams is
new this season-no two.year
olds mixed with this year
lings. A counter end in the
Bingham section displays some
Of he latest styles. Every added
year confirms the character of
the Anderson Ginghams 4oc
But that ubiquitous Yankee
Bingham maker (not he of
the Bedford Cord) harries the
Scotch again as he has these
three years Stuffs and styles
