a stylish Para
sol adds to the get up Of
summer costume?
. They are not the SOM
bre characterless things
that they were; indeed
their value. as protectors
from a glazing sun isn't
the chiefest desirable
thing about them nowa-
days. They must be dec
orative, graceful, bright
and airy, and they should
be chosen with reference
to what's to be worn
with them. All the art
and skill of silk manufac-
turers and Umbrella
makers is combined in
the Fin de Steele Para
sol, and the natural re-
suit is "a thing Of beauty
and a joy" for the sea
son.
We've just brought
out a new lot. changeable
silk, coaching and fancy
Parasols, mounted on
straight acacia roots
and natural stick han
dies, the nobbiest goods
of the year. They're to
be had in all the shades
of red and blue, with a
few figures and dots in
contrasting colors. The
coaching Parasols are
plain and straight and
roll very close, are fit for
rain or shine and large
enough for real practical
use. Nearly all the 9TH
ers have the cloverleaf
ruffle, which is quite the
latest effect in Parasol
trimming.
The department shows
a splendid line Of Chill
dren's Parasols in an
endless variety of silks.
If you haven't seen our
Parasol show we rec
ommend you to do so
