 ss PATTERN M
Paper Pattern Store.

This concern has at its head n man who is an artist in his line. He's conceded by all who are up in "Dress Designing" to be
 ne ol the best in the country, nut like all artists, he is pecu-
 iar-but in a way that you'll like after you hear aboutit
 For years past all Paper Pat tern companies have been charg- ing from 20 to 45c each for their patterns. s,a.
 They had no right to, that is you never got 40c worth, but 1t was ort of a trust and they alL kept the prices up. A little less than four years ago this artist decided to make patterns at popular prices, so he started right in and made an elegant line at 10c-even those 400 ones could be had from him at 10c. Then there was bowling, vail ing aud gnashing of teeth, not on the art of the public, oh mol but the manufacturer.
 Now this New Idea" man is very conscientious - everyone must get their moneys worth--a -o when you buy one of the simpler patterns = such as sleeves, caps, drawers, corset covers and the like, you get two or three patterns in one envelope and at one price. In infants' underwear, he gives you 3, 4, , and even 6 pieces in one en- velope. In some dresses you get 3 yoke patterns, high, square and round. He also makes patterns, for little stuffed animals and gives you ? or 8 different kinds for 10c.
 Another envelope contains a complete set ofdoll clothes.
 Collar patterns, hoods, waist garnitures, vests, blouse vests, collarettes and cuffs, etc., etc, etc, all come from 2 to 6 patterns in one envelope. This concern gives you as much (not as httie) as possible for ten cents, while others would charge you 4 or 6 times as much for the same or inferior goods-there is nothing better. Remember we guarantee every pattern and give fashion sheets and Monthly Journals free for the asking.
