JUST ARRIVED
TWO TONS OF HATS FROM
JOHN B. STETSON CO. and MOSSANT VALLON
& ARGOD of Paris France
The biggest hat display ever made in El Paso may
be seen Monday in the large front window of our store.
Each succeeding season is showing smarter styles in men's hats. Men are
throwing off the shackles of somber conservatism that has so long held them
in subjection on their headwear. The new more artistic and more fanciful
styles authorized now by fashion votaries are bringing out many handsome ef-
fects in soft felts velours and mixtures and even the stiff hats show novelty
tendencies. All the best and most fashionable departures are here.
