DRESSES

Dresses are the most recent addition to
the ready-to-wear lines and as soon as women
become convinced of the superior advantages
of these garments their popularity will be equal
to that enjoyed by Suits, Coats, etc.
This season we felt impressed with the
idea of making dresses a feature of our gar
ment section, consequently we selected range
of styles and fabrics that impress all VINO have
seen them.
Dresses of Serge, Eponge, Broadcloth,
Velveteen, Corduroy, Crepe de Chine, Char
meuse, Net Chiffon Cloths and spangled effects.
Models for street, evening, mourning and
the daintiest little dancing frocks that you have
ever seen. Prices in every instance much less
than dresses of equal style and quality could be
produced for in your homes. Those desiring
to try on dresses will be provided with private
fitting room.
Your attention is called to our complete
line of Suits, Tep Coats, Waists, Furs, Fur
Garments.

FOREIGN COMMERCE IN 1911
Heavy Gain in Exports and Big
Trade Balance in Favor of u. S.

While the figures of export and import
trade In December have not yet been re-
celved. 1t Is quite probable that the excess
or exports over imports for the twelve
months will amount to more than $780,
100000. For the eleven months ended No
vember 30 the excess of exports amounted
to more than $4,000 900, compared with
S2l1, 100000 in the same time in the preced-
ing year and about s2l9, 100000 in 1909. For
the twelve months ended November 30 the
excess of exports was s56s 947.706. Exports
OF breadstuffs, cotton, meat and dairy
products and general manufactures have
increased at a rapid rate in recent months
and, according to the estimates made by
the best informed men in foreign trade,
shipments from this country in the new
year will make new high records.
In October exports of merchandise from
the United States were heavier than in
any month I'm the history of the country.
with the exception of those reported in
December. 1910. Government records show
that for the twelve months ended Novem-
Der 80, 1906, the imports of merchandise
amounted in value TO sl,2s7, 4,6ll, and in
the corresponding period in 1911 to sl,529,
1891. Exports OF merchandise from this
country for the twelve months ended Mo-
vember 30. 1895, amounted in value to
S,SN,5S ,917, compared with s2096, ,2OS, ,0T In
the twelvemonth period ended November
go 1911. Our increasing exports supply one
Of the strongest features in the current
financial situation. for the good reason that
it places our bankers In a position TO lend
money abroad and 10 import gold If gold
should be needed here
In the year just closed noteworthy
changes are, In imports. a falling off in
manufacturers raw materials and IN fin
ished manufactures; in exports, a general
increase In all important groups, food
stuffs. manufactures and manufacturers
materials. Exports advanced I'm crude
foodstuffs from S700G0,OOO TO S9j 10000;
fOodstuffs, partly or wholly manufactured,
from s203, 90 to S247, 900 900; manufactur-
ers' raw materials, from A37 10000 TO

WOULD REGULATE THE
COLLECTION AGENCIES
Commissioner DoIley Thinks They
Should Be Under State
Supervision.


The state bank commissioner be
lieyes the collection agencies should
be regulated and that they should be
regulated by his department. He be-
lieves that the small merchants should
be protected from the collection agen
cles. 1t is possible that at the coming
session of the legislation some sort oil
legislation along that line will be OF
fered
Mr.. Dolley admits there are good
collection agencies as we'll as bad
ones. He has studied the matter and
finds that hundreds of small merchants
over the state are victimized annually
by the bad ones.
Representatives of collection agen'
cies will go to a merchant who has a
lot Of outstanding accounts" said Mr.
Dolley, land working on his desire to
get in some money persuade him to
sign a long and involved contract. 10
the end he learns that the collection
