We note the incident not to call attention par ticularly to the difference in price, though that is interesting, but to further emphasize the danger of making mere price com parisons. To most observers the two waists were identical Style, color, effect, form all appeared to be similar. And then the head of our Blouse De partment began to point out distinctions. One b) one she un covered the hidden points of superiority in our blouse, which would have made it by far the better, even at a higher price than gB.90 the adver tised "original" price of the other. Quality Is More Than Skin Deep Tiny gilded buttons, apparently the same, decorated the collar and cuffs of both waists. But closer stud) showed that our buttons cost twice as much. Upon turning up the crepe col lar of the other blouse it was found to lie lined with a piece of cheap cambric. Our collar was lined with (ieorgette Crepe. One waist was made merely to "get b ." the other was "finished" to "get buyers." One was skimped to make a cer tain price ) ield a certain profit. The other was made to conform with a ceratin standard of qualit) . "Finish" is what tells in any creation. Hid den goodness may not be seen at first, but at the last it is the impor tant essential. The next time you shop fur the sake of comparison, study the de tails of finish and then compare the price. Any store can quote low prices. But "Low-est-in-the-Cit " prices, quality for quality.
