mechanical fault.

Black Cat Hosiery

We have always paid loo per
dozen more for our 25c Hose than
other merchants pay for theirs.
Conditions brought on by the for
cign war have made il absolutely
necessary that Black Cat manu-
facturers get part OF the ad.
vance in materials and extra cost
OF labor by advancing prices.
We have received notice from
the Black Cat mill, asking us to
price our 25c Ladies' Hose TO SOC
and 35c.
We have on hand a very large
supply of Black Cat Hose, so for
the present will stand between the
people and high prices by holding
35c Hose at pc per pair.
This applies to our old No. 10
with full rib leg. The greatest
2qc value on the market.
Prices on all kinds of goods will
change very fast after Sept. ! and
continue TO advance as the war
continues. We will save You all
that we can, even TO the extent OF
cutting our profit.
