122 Sample Spring & Summer Dresses: Three Sale Lots
From two New York makers who are superior in their lines—who have the reputa-
tion for turning out garments of the very highest class—we received collections
of stylish new summer dresses, purchased at discounts that average close to 50 cents
on the dollar. So for Monday you may expect quite the most remarkable values
you have known in many years at such an early stage of the season. Ten of the 122
dresses are illustrated here that you may gain some idea of the offering.

Exactly 122 dresses in this collection—each one a masterpiece of the maker's art and display-
ing the most beautiful fashion ideas. Coming as it does a week prior to the Fiesta, just when white
dresses are most wanted, this sale of sample garments should indeed be most welcome. While the
dresses chiefly are of lingerie, batiste and other sheer materials, there are included Marquisettes,
voiles and ratines. The styles are the most distinctive and the smartest to be seen and there is but

one dress of a kind, thus affording wonderful scope for selection. The above illustration, made
directly from the sale, garments, serves to give some idea of the remarkable values. The display in
our big Alamo Street window shows twenty additional styles. Monday morning, in our big Ready-
to-Wear Section, Third Floor, you will find the entire collection of samples—122 new spring and
summer dresses in these three sale groups-
Women's $10 to $15 Sample Dresses, Monday $7.90
Women's $22.50 to $35 Sample Dresses, Monday $18.90
Women's $40 to $85 Sample Dresses, Monday $24.90
These Hats at $4.65 Are $6.50 & $7.50 Values
And We Doubt If You Can Match Them Outside This Store Under $ 10
There are about 50 in the collection, all fresh and full of summer
beauty, every one superior in quality and unusual in style. They are
in all the fashionable shapes, plenty of novelty hats, hats veiled in
chiffon, many of the popular tains, some turbans in black and all the
varieties of the small hat. Trimmings are varied. Little nosegays
of multi-colored buds, feathers, fancies and
ribbons make up these dainty hats, just out of
our workroom, and which in the regular way
would be priced at $6.50 and $7.50. Choice.
Trimmed Hats at $10.00, $12.50, $15.00 and Up to $25.00
'aried. Little nosegays
$4.65
Beautifully trimmed millinery evidencing in every small detail the exceptional efficiency of
our own artists. Over 100 hats fresh from our workrooms, in beautiful new shapes, of fine
straw or in the fashionable combinations of satin and straw. Some are trimmed with plumes,
many with numidi, flowers and fancy ostrich novelties in every way which Paris advises cor-
rect. A great variety in all colors and combinations at
$10, $12.50, $15 AND UP TO $25.
MANY BEAUTIFUL HATS AT $30.00 AND $35.00
We may briefly describe this showing as one that embraces the newest conceits in exclusive
millinery modes. There are hats of all shapes, with a preponderance of those effects which
are now so popular. The trimmings include fancy ostrich, stick-ups, fancy feathers and a
wealth of ribbons and flowers iatfie oddest and gayest of colorings. But one must see the de-
signs, for they are altogether too numerous and too clever to describe. Copies of costly
model hats mostly, supplemented with many attractive creations, by our own milliners.
