Suitable for either the ladies or gentle-
men is the topic this week. We call
your attention especially to our choice
collection of exquisite Perfumes and
Toilet Waters. These are both imported
and domestic and are the choicest made.
The latest oders such as “Rob Roy”
“Our Jack” “Brisa De Los Pampas”
is delightful to the most refined taste.
Nature can not contribute more to charm
the sense than is offered here. Only the
perfumes themselves can voice their own
delicacy.
