Many make the great mistake in this climate of sunshine of not providing themselves with proper underclothing at the proper season. Underwear, and woolen at that, is just as necessary preventative from colds in this climate as in any other. The outer clothing may be much lighter than is usually worn in the winter time, but the cloth ing. worn next the skin should be woolen of good quality. We have made a speciality of the underwear problem and believe that if you will look over our vast stock of ladies, mems and children's underwear you will be convinced that we have the problem solved.
