Nebraska hats sell for 750 , Si.oo , $ i.5o , $2.00 , $2.50 , '

Ninety-nine men out of a hundred can't tell a wool hat
from a fur hat when both arc new , and many stores sell-
'
wool hats for the price of fur. We don't , We can't af-
fotd to make such mistakes , Every hat we sell for 730
and up has got to give service and satisfaction , and woojl
hats do that sometimes and sometimes they don't. You
take no chances here. The hats we sell at 750 arc bctt
ter than you expect. They look well , wear well and hold
their color and shape. Our dollar hats are better felt ,
bettor trimmed and wear better , of course , Our $1,50
hats arc as much superior to other hats at that price as
Omaln is superior to Papillion or any other sidetrack \
town , They are respectable hats. They have all the
style , finish and appearance of most three dollar hats
and they are a good sight better than people who haven't
worn them can believe. Ten thousand tongues can tes
tify to the excellence of these hats. Can you ?
