WOMEN'S GARMENTS

Ifthere is any other house in
the trade that can show more
stylish outer garments this
season than we do, we would
like to know where it is to be
found. You may tell us Of
larger stocks, but we are
speaking Of stylish, refined
jackets and Capes, not goods
of past seasons.
The Jackets from $40 to
SIS, Capes from $40 to S3S,
are from the finest manufact-
urers in this country, firms
with facilities for getting out
the latest foreign and Ameri-
can productions.
There is hardly a day but
what we have some new style
to place before our people.
And it will pay every lady in
Wilmington to look through
our Cloak Department.
1t is on the first floor,
splendidly lighted, and every
Coat shown you will be a new
one.
In regard to prices, we en-
deavor at all times 10 be as
low, and in many cases lower,
than larger houses Of the great
cities.
We prove it every day.
Besides our great stock of
fine and medium Jackets,
we have two numbers of s.

best in the market.
