The Suit With a Personality is Waiting
At Burger's for Every Woman
The woman without a personality is as dull and forceless as a faded wall paper—the same thing applies to
a book or a statue.
One thing we have tried to do—and succeeded in doing—is to make suits so distinctive in styles that each
one stands out by the sheer force of its own individualitv.
J * 1/0S
A Very Attractive Lot of Suits at $19.95 to $49.50
That will he displayed tomorrow. Only one or two of a kind—a style may lx>
repeated in several colors, though—and each suit is beautiful in its individual
way. Somb are in silk poplin or more,some serge, wool poplin and other nut
terials not commonly used.
A suit of Bedford cord at $39..50 is effective—skirt and coat draped
both back and front—and trimmed with braiding and silk.
Suits at $12.95 to $17.95
Mostly of serviceable serge these are, though the $17.95 suits in
clude Bedford cords, eponges, mixed suitings, checks and two-tone mate
rials. These are trimmed rather fancifully with braid and buttons—
since it is a season of elaboration—but the quality of the suit has not
suffered.
Exquisite Gowns at $29.50 to $65.00
“Exquisite’ ’is the only word for them. j
They are copied fi*om creations of Paquin, Poiret and Maurice Meyer, ;
as a rue, and have all the unusual touches of the originals.
Millinery of Unusual Style
Burger’s Millinery is known for its originality and elegance, (ieuerally the
inspiration is a much admired Paris model, sometimes copied faithfully, often sim
plified and adapted.
Different types of faces need different types of hats to frame them, for not ev
ery one looks well in the extreme of style.
f) So the Burger adaptations are made to retain all the charm of the original,
while forgetting the very extreme.
A poke etfect of old blue straw with crown of old blue satin, appliqued in rose
leaves and upstanding tea and La France roses at back; a velvet strap fastens
jf under the chin; this strap adds a quaint and pretty touch to a low neck gown.
A smart little tailored tricorne hat of emerald green hemp; brim strapped in
'* green ribbon; crown covered in green crepe; green ostrich at left side.
Prices: $5.95, $6.95, $9.95 to $14.95
