Wash Goods.
We feel proud
of our Wash

Goods this season. And we believe we have
reason to be- For you would not find a better
assortment to select a wash dress from in any
city the size of Des Moines We used great care
in selecting the patterns, and as we had all of
New York and all of Chicago to pick from, it
would be a wonder if we did not get the right
{, things at the right prices. Dimity and Organdy
will be used most for summer dresses, and Cling
hams and Percales for waists. Though Dimity
will be used to a certain extent for waists also.
A nice Dimity, trimmed in narrow Val.
Lace or Insertion makes very neat and pretty
waist We have some ready made, made that
way The fine French and Zephyr Ginghams
at 1Sc and zoe, which we are showing, makes
satisfactory waist in every respect. The
Zephyr comes in that new stripe effect and the
French goods in checks, plain, and stripes.
Just about the same styles as past seasons.
Wash goods are, as a general thing, about the
same styles as last summer. About the only
novelty is the Persian effects in which many of
them are made. The patterns Of all, are of
course, somewhat different, and we think much
prettier. But there is no new fabric out which
is extremely swell. Dame Fashion evidently
could not improve Oh the material and put in
all her time on the patterns. We wish you
would look over the list of the different wash
goods we have and ask yourself if there would
be any doubt about getting what you want.
Having ,Ohat you aUant is the main point we
make in our Wash Goods department. The
prices are all so small that they have ceased to
be much of an object. What difference does it
make if your summer dress costs 1Oc more or
less, so 1t as a0hat you aoants But to get back
to the kinds we have First comes Dimities, in
IA different patterns each pattern in from to
different colorings. Prices ranging from Sc to
TIC yard.
Ginghams, in the Zephyr and French men.
toned above, and also ToilduNord A. f. c.,
Fanstina Zephyr, and Parkhill Fine Zephyr.
Prices range from 10c to zoe. OF course, we
have cheaper ginghams also, but we refer more
to the nice ones now.
Organdy in beautiful printed flower and
figure designs in sheer, fine cloth. These cost
35c, and are the same grade sold last season for
6Oc. Then we have a plain organdy in white,
pink light blue, and black, in a fine cloth at
25c. Also another cheaper grade at 15c, but
not so wide.
Challie, in wool and cotton, with or without
satin stripe, for 4c up to &c. Do you think if
you wanted challie dress you could find one
here to suit you? .....
Percales in thirty-eight patterns Price
from 7c to 15c Guess we can suit YOU
Picratines, and Persian Kashans is the one
entirely new cloth out and they are not so
much different than percale. Patterns are diff.
ferent and the quality is better. The Picratine
comes in black navy, brown and blue grounds,
with Persian figures They are guaranteed
absolutely fast color. The price is 15c. The
Kashans are light grounds with colored Persian
figures. This is decidedly a Persian goods.
!, Color is also fast and both are SO inches wide.
Dotted Swisses in white, in three different
grades and the colored, linen, pink, light blue,
black and white at 15c. Then there is Lappet
cloth, which is nothing more than a dotted
swiss with printed figure, also at 15c.
To realize the extent of our Wash Goods
Department you must see it. You will notice
that none of the prices are very high, and most
of them are extremely low. That's why we say
price is no object"
We have number of still lower priced
goods which we do not mention at all, as our
ad is already quite long.
