play of 'Ladylike costumes,
cloaks, coats and wraps
from Paris"
THIS created a departure
Il that has widely in-
fluenced standards of dress
and fashion in this country.
II was the first time that
Paris modistes had been
represented in America in
any large way. Today
Wanamaker customers are
so accustomed to coming
into the Gray Salons to see
the new fashions Of eaSh
successive season, display
ed simultaneously with
their advent in Paris itself,
that they forget that what
was once a nine days won
der is still a very marvel
lous achievement.
For instance, we think a
good deal of significance
attaches to the fact that
when the good ship La Lor-
raine came in the other day
she brought us a few Paris
frocks for Summer wear.
You can SEE some Of
these dainty frocks in the
Fashion S Salons (First
Floor, Central) and they
are well worth seeing.
They are of the French,
Frenchy. Simple, OH so
simplel Made Of sheer,
soft handkerchief linen in
pastel shades-fIax and
periwinkle blues, primrose
yellows, pale and deep
rose shades-and .made on
simple, straight lines, with
self-straps, pipings, deli
cate hand-drawn work or a
little embroidery; but made
by hand. every stitch: and
in taste and style, ex-
quisite, oh, so exquisitel
The prices-S45 and 500
are strikingly moderate
for imported frocks. Such

that belongs to no other
nation.
In their ideas they are
not initiative but creative
In matters of taste and Sc
lection they have what
may be called in homely
phrase "the knack," and in
details of workmanship
they have the deftest
fingers in the world.
For the shades or COM

French invent, for the fab
rics they weave, for the
gowns and hats they fash
ion, and for their number
less clever ideas Of all sorts,
Americans have always
had q frank appreciation.
The Wanamaker Store
was the first American es-
tablishment doing a pure
" retail business to open
an office in Paris for the
purpose of bringing the
wonderful t h ! n & s of
France to the stay-st-
home American public.
AS long ago as Decem-

Wanamaker advertisement
publisaed in the Philadel-
phia papers:

facility for buying goods
and executing commissions
within the scope of our

was opened, and shortly

seriously wounded is the enormous
sacrifice of France in the world war.
This constituted about half of the men

of her 36,0O0,000 population than any
other nation. America owes France a
large lebt of gratitude for this heroic
outpouring of her life's blood that lib
erty might live, and also to the peas

feet remedy for stomach, liver and in
testinal ailments which is reported to
have relieved incalculable suffering,
prevented many surgical operations
and saved thousands of lives. Geo. H.
