Life Story"
an autobiography

Buffalo Bills life is part of the
wild, romantic, old Far West that
Is gone forever, transformed from
wilderness to civilization within
the span of lifetime. His life
story is the livest and most thrill
ing adventure romance America
has produced, life as a pony ex-
press rider. an Indian fighter, an
army scout, hunter and show
man - everything a changing
frontier demanded. This story is
interesting to every one, for it is
an important phase of our history
graphically told by the one who
knew it best-and who so largely
helped to change the "Wild West"
to the great country it is today.

Gay Flowers on
These New $40
to SIS Hats
Airy and dainty and most
attractive is one new hat of hair
in a woodsy brown, with glowing
pink roses fiat on it's brim and
veiled by the brown. A band of
French blue and a demurely tied
bow give it just the touch it needs.
Or perhaps you'd prefer
feather-trimmed hat-like the one
of shiny blue straw, with rather
straight, short brim, high crown,
a crushed band of blue satin and
an upright ostrich feather for dis
tinction.
Youthful and becoming are the
flower-trimmed hats-one of fine
blue straw has round crown, a
mushroom-like brim, shorter in
back, and a gay wreath of bright
hued fruits and flowers.
But these are Just a few--there
are hair hats that turn off the
face and are flower trimmed:
there are other feather-trimmed
hats, there are hats with ribbon
bows and glowing posies-and
they are in shapes that are fash
ionable, in colors that women are
asking for, and in small and
larger sizes.
All delightfully."- new, too.
