for Women

Wide, beautiful scarfs of
thick, crepy silks are these
which have just come over
from the land of cherry bios
sons, and we can't remember
ever having had any just like
them.
There is blue and black and
purple for choice of colors,
and they have the most inter
esting designs-Oriental, but
not the designs usually seen, by
any manner Of means. There
are small and large designs in
rather striking colorings, like
black and white on purple, or
an orange shade and white on
black.
They have decorative posi-
biliities, as any woman can
see, and the silk is heavy
enough to afford some warmth,
too.
$3.50 to $50 each.

considered matter of very great I'M

every hour of labor produces just as
much as possible. For this reason ne
