Cleaning and Dyeing.

This department added by us some five or six months ago has won its spurs. We are now cleaning and dyeing great quantities of merchandise-at first we were struggling up stream. We represent the most expert Dyers and Clean CTS that we could find in the United States people who have the French system of cleaning-who restore white to perfect whiteness and clean- ness, with the absence of that muddy look that most dry cleaned articles have.
 It takes about ten days to return an order, therefore peo- pie who are contemplating try ing this department should an ticipate their wants sufficiently long to get the benefit of our price and our good work.
 Kid Gloves are cleaned and restored to perfect softness and pliability.
 Blankets are restored to their original finish, and look like the California Blanket just out of the store.
 Lace Curtains retain their original colors, whether Ecru, White or Arabian, and are free from stiffness or being pulled out of shape.
 We clean as well-and clean well:
 Shoes,
 Hosiery,
 Dresses,
 Babies Sacques and Wraps,
 Wash Fabrics,
 Real Lace,
 Silks,
 Silk Undergarments.
 If you desire information in this line inquire at the Dress Goods aisle where this is cared for and looked after.
 Our prices are made to you free of express charges. We pay the freight both ways, having a special arrangement We minimize this cost.

The Latest Feature

To our public service idea is the iewalry repairing de- ment. We are now prepared to do the very best and most difficult jewelry and watch repairing, engraving and stone setting. For this purpose we have engaged an eX- pert in this line, and we propose 10 have this de- partment known for its promptness in execution of re- pairs and orders, as well as for it's moderate prices. You will find that you can have it done here a little less than in a jewelry store. For the same reason we can sell merch- andise for less than speciality stores, and for that matter most department stores plant operates so much more economically (being an agqre- grafton of stores) than so many separate stores under separate management would operate.
