Fancy Soft Shirts havo now passed from the realm of exceptional
novelties to that of staple luxury. The spring and summer demand
for them grows more extensively each year, and must be reckoned
with by everp up-to-date dresser in rearranging his spring and sum
mer wardrobe. Recognizing these facts, long before the last season
for these goods closed, we placed immense orders with foreign and
domestic mills with the determination of insuring ourselves a mag
nificent assortment of original and exclusive designs. Could you but
see our present stock, rich, glowing, beautiful colorings, cut and fin
ished by the most expert shirt tailors of this continent, you would
appreciate how thoroughly we have succeeded in gathering from'the
four quarters of the globe all that is beautiful, all that is new, all that
is worthy, in fine, medium, and low-priced shirts. Our Special
brands are the
"taale," "Monarch," "Wihcn nw'
and the ""
brands. Out of all these makes we desire to call special attention to
the "EAGLE" brand. This line of shirts is by far the best in cut,
best in make, and material, of any shirt on the market to-day. It
shows more exclusive patterns than all other lines combined, and is
the only shirt in the world to-day that has the non-shrinkable neck
band. Ask for the "EAGLE," and secure for yourself the most ele
gant fitting and wearing shirt in America.
