Tk MAY WHITE SAL
Continues with
Unequaled Values
Despite the fact that a
continually rising market has
made present day prices pro
hibitive, our foresight and im
mense purchasing power has
enabled us to quote prices to
day on this White Wear and
these White Fabrics which are
remarkably low.
You will do well to anticipate
your needs for some time to come, be
cause when we go into the market
again, it will be impossible to duplicate
the merchandise we were fortunate
enough' to own now, at anything like
the former prices.

A Stunning Style
Special Hat
A very large, de
cidedly youthful
type of Hat, that
is creating quite a
furore in the East.
It is a large drooping Hat of Lisere, with a
piping of patent leather on the edge; very soft, no
wires; the floppy brim taking on becoming lines
to suit the wearer.
Three styles, each distinctively different, with
black velvet crown or smart bow.
If you want something decidedly new and chic,
see this Hat right now.

'Torrington" Electric Cleaners
Costs Less Than 2c a Week to Operate
Just think of it the cost of the electric current to
operate this up-to-date Cleaner is less than 2c a
week. The suction is 25 greater than the United
States Government test requires, and the 'current
cost 22 less.
Why not present your wife with one of these
up-to-date Cleaners instead of having her use the
old broom and dust pan back-breaking method. It
sucks up the dust and does not scatter it all over
the house. Fifteen minutes, once a week upstairs,
and fifteen minutes, once a week downstairs with
the Torrington Cleaner, keeps your house spick
and span. Does away with semi-annual house
cleanings, the bugbear of every housekeeper.

Every Kiddie Should Know Billiken
A Good Friend to Little Folks.
"BILLIKEN" is a Shoe, an unusual shoe. If many
grown-ups who read this story, had known Billi
ken in their childhood days, foot ailments would
have vanished in the twinkling of an eye.
The most kindly and sensible thing you can do for
a child, for YOUR child, is to get the proper footwear.
Children's feet grow and expand in a surprisingly quick manner, and unless
you put those pedal extremities into Footwear that will permit freedom without
undue shuffling room, the child will grow to youthfulness and manhood and
womanhood with foot troubles that will be very hard to get rid of.
Billiken Shoes have three excellent points of merit that every mother should know.
FIRST: Flexibility they
are as easy on little feet
as a soft kid glove.
THIRD: Not a Nail or
Stitch to hurt tender little
feet.
SECOND: The Nature
Shape permitting little
toes to grow naturally.
These points have a direct bearing upon the general health of your
child, and they are feet features that should not be overlooked.
Priced According to Style and Size.

Probably there is no other
Department in this immense
establishment where .SERV
ICE counts for more than it
does here. To properly cur
tain the home is a task that

harmonious color schemes,
proper consideration of loca
tion and fullest appreciation
of the effect as a whole. For
these reasons we maintain
more than a selling force we advise with you and
