take 5 yards for kimono. The
chiffon velvets in blacks. browns,

An Organized Attack on Dirt and
Germs
Is the Aotilla of auto delivery
L cars lined up in front of
Dresher Bros, 22ll Farnam street,
which | see every morning as |
come down town on the car. Their
service is prompt indeed and de-
pendable. They will give you ex-
pert advice on cleaning and dyeing.
Send a shabby garment to them,
and you may be assured that at
very little expense extra the gar
ment will be restored to its fresh
ness, and will be returned to you
mended, hooks and snappers re-
placed, buttons frightened, and if
you send them with the garment,
they will be sewed on! Wouldn't
you enjoy this service? They pay
return charges on all out-of-town
shipments which is good news to
many people.
Bows once more give height to
the turban of downward tilt.
