carry immense varieties. The proof of these claims need only be
a matter of a little investigation. Special mention of a few of our

when the secrets of this "treasure box" are revealed enthusi-
asm will run high. The Tuesday evening Chronicle and Wed-
day morning Post will give all the price details.

or any price up' to a hundred or more and you'll find a broad
assortment at all prices. We cater to one class no more s than
another. It's a store for all the people all the time. -
Tomorrow we will specialize ' on inexpensive Hats. Those at $5.00
$7.50 and $10.00. We will show vou the greatest values ever given
at these prices. In most instances the shapes alone are worth the prices
asked. Our buyer was fortunate to buy a large lot of shapes in New
York at a greatly reduced price. These we have trimmed up in our own
workrooms. Such values would not be possible only for the fact that
the shapes cost us less money than usual. ' ;;

crowns or Tarn o'Shanter styles the latest edict from Paris. Trimmed
mostly in fancy ostrich. Chic charming models that one would little
dream cost as little as we shall sell them for. Specially displayed
