Suits has been fully met by us this season. This
demand is for better fitting and better made goods.

Gowns, as was formerl' the case, but be
cause of superiority of styles, Avorkmanship.finish

or a fancy evening costume is wautcd, it can be
bought more stylish,. as well as much cheaper, ready made. Of COUTSC, this depends largely upon
