Through vast purchases from high-grade makers we secured most of the$e Dresses
at little above cost to make, others at actual cost, still others at below cost, and the
comparative values represent the conservative prices they would bring had they
been purchased in the regular way.
Newest Styles and Triptmings
Hundreds of New Sport Dresses
They're i the sort of dress "bargains" women dream about. They are all brand new
summer dresses, the very cream of the maker's stock, each one selected for some in
dividual style features many dresses in the lot are identical with those that but a few
weeks ago cost us more than double the sale price. '
