tour of the southwest before returning to her home and she wanted to see where she could do the best. She wrote that she had visited the leading markets in southern California, New Mexico and Colorado but nowhere had she found blankets so cheap or of such good quality as those she had examined at the Big CuTiO store.
 It is agreed by all who have given any thought to the matter that Navajo blankets will never again be so cheap as they are now. On the contrary, on account of the growing demand for them they will be dearer until they shall become costly cur:osities That is the genuine ones will be. There will always be the cheap limitations. the blankets made of Germantown yarn for purposes of the Indian traders But the real Navajo blanket is getting year by year nearer out of reach
 It will be of interest to many to learn that another big installment of gold swatiska cross ornaments has been received at the Big Curio store. They come in both plain gold and in gold en- graved and set with stones. These crosses are coming more and more into fashion.

NAVAJO BLANKETS
There is No Time Like the Present
 to Secure Them.

Midsummer may seem to be an in opportune time to be talking about Navajo blankets but it must be remem- bered that the Navajo blanket is not so much an article to be worn on the person as it is to be a useful article about the house, so that it is always reasonable. Fer this reason and an other the sale of Navajo blankets at Balke's Big Curio store goes on winter and summer. The unprecedented de- mand for them now is due to the ef- feet of the cut prices on them as well as on everything else sold at the Big Curio store.
 Not only residents of Phoenix are buying Navajo blankets but persons who had spent the winter here are sending for them. Mr. Bake yester- day received letter from a lady living at Albion, N. r. She had spent the winter here and was a frequent patron of the Big Curio, as she was quite collector. In her letter she said that she had neglected to buy blankets here as she intended to make an extensive
