Score another triumph for
the home makers.
They give the foreigners
another close rub for your
favor.
They have blended colors
and drawn designs in a
most ingenious way. Great

Given to fashion a contribu-
ton of their stuffs for spring
and summer service that
eclipses any previous effort.
OF course they are sure to
be popular-with quality to
commend them-and effect
and price. The inportations
will have to look to their
laurels.
We are impartial. Both
