LigKtweight Spring Coats
fi.
In Which tho Newest Stylo. Ideas Have Been
Admirably Carried to a Point of Perfection
One of the most prominent features of these Spring
Coats is the stunning patterns of their materials. It is
more than probable that five years ago these same pat
terns would have bee deemed far too "loud". But times ""
and ideas both change, and the superb and striking fabric
of which these coats are made are the most stylish and
popular of the present season.
As for the styles in which these coats are made,
there is very little that we can say here, because anything
that we could shy would fall far short of conveying to
your mind a just impression of their beauty and becoming
ness. Here you will find all the popular three quarter
full length models. Suffice it to promise that you will
find, here the very newest fashions and all of the newest
fashions. It has been our aim to represent every good
style here, and we are confident that we have succeded.
We'd like every woman in town to inspect this
collection of Spring coats, while it is complete. Can't
you arrange to come tomorrow. "

burningnnd notified Mrs. Schuyler and
the two ladies, with the aid of buckets
of water, puL out tho flames. Tho cat
was burued so badly that it will have to
bo killed. It belongs to tho Frank
James family. An effort is being made

has been caused lately by a crowd of
loafers who make it a practice to be on

eral occasions when the windows wore
locked they broke sovernl panes of glass
and threw articles into tho rooms at the
samo time making insulting remarks.
