    “Skin Deep”
I is said that beauty is only skin deep. That’s suf
ficient. Properly gowned and adorned womankind
is satisfied with this depth of facial beauty. In the
way of adornments—useful and necessary adornments
—we are showing the very choicest designs in
hat Pins
Belt Buckles
Gold Lockets
Fancy Purses
Back Combs
Barrettes ,
Mesh Bags
Toilet Articles
The prices are fair and reasonable—not “cheap,'1 but
just right. Our ’show window doesn't tell half the
story-—so many pretty and useful things necessary for
My Lady’s toilet that are not in the window. Hut they
are here, subject to your approval.
