Also bear In mind that we trim hats free of charge. Lookout for Old Goods. When you purchase your hats at some other stores you are in danger of getting old goods and styles, which is not the case at our store, for all our hats are new and will bear the closest Inspection, for as every lady In the city and community well knows that last summer we closed out our entire line of summer hats at as low as 5c each, and In order to clean up the old line entirely, the winter hats were burned in front of store this spring. Other places you might find an out of season hat, but here you cannot posslbuy get any thing but new goods, bought for and made up for this spring's trade. Now. the spring season is drawing to a close, and our trimmers may not be with us many weeks longer, so we impress upon your mind that if you want your hats trimmed free of charge, our expert trimmers are at your service, but we ask you to come in soon as they will not remain long.. Bear in mind that we are of fering everything at a great reduc tion, and will prove this to be true If you will call and see. M. FAXGKIl.
