Styles Which Reflect the Newest Fash.
ion Thought of America

1t makes no difference what kind of dress
you have in mind to make up during the next
few weeks-you cannot in fairness to your
self, decide upon the material until you have
examined this superb Style Exhibit.
You may know that Tussah Crepes, Serges
Marquisettes and Gabardines will lead in pop
ularity this season-but you will never be
able to properly appreciate their real beau
ties until you examine our showing of the
hundreds of distinctively beautiful Prints,
Checks, Splash" and Embroidered Effects or
Novelties we show in these fabrics alone.

Assortments Such as Cannot be Found
Elsewhere Today

All tend to make these displays exceedingly
helpful to you now. We shall endeavor to
keep our style assortments complete through
out the season, of course-but if you want to
be sure that your new dress is different-we
cannot avoid urging you to select the mater
ials for it while assortments are at their best.

come to our Dress Goods Section and pick out
the goods best suited to your style. For street
costumes, afternoon, evening party frocks
a better array of charming fabrics could not
be asked for.
