I wish to announce to the ladies of North Platte and vicinity that 1 have succeeded in oblaining the most styl ish up-to-date Spring Garments that could be found in New York City, and I am confident to say thai this season's showing will sur pass anything ever shown in North Platte. All Spring Garments arc unusually beau tiful, partly on account of the colorings, which arc the acme of the dyers' art, but largely on account of the designing. It seems that each season the designers sur pass themselves; each season brings out ideas that were never conceived before; each season finds effects which enhances milady's appearance so greatly that she cannot resist the temptationiof styldom. Our lines are filled with Garments expressing distinction, and we are showing and sell ing many of them daily. Come in any day to inspect our Grand Display of 75 n n n re bin h $49.50 Spring Coats $7.50 to pring Dresses $7.75 to $50. Spring Blouses. Spring Skirts $2.98 to $24.50. We realize that many are not yet decided as to what they want for spring but it will be interesting, and perhaps considerable help to you, to see our wonderful stocks so REASONABLY PRICED.
