A step and you are in the

Spring. Merchandise from

most of the beauty. 1t has

Philadelphia shoppers. No
wonder that such unmatched
collections of goods should
tempt women from far and
near to become PHILADELPHIA

live. A bright style-hunter
says she has made her last

as six weeks stay in Paris.
And she is right. To this

a hearty welcome!
