A week of spirited buying has not dimmed the brightness of this unexampled offering. It enters upon its second week with the same fullness of value and many sdded attractions from our regular stock.

Hun- dreds of pairs have been sold, bundreds are left, and the choice is Just as good as at the beginning of sale, for every pair is this season's style.
