-THE - SUNDAY STAR. JANUARY 30, 1921—PART 1. o = = == THE DOLLAR IS RECUPERATING The dollar was weak a short while ago, and you couldn’t do much with it. Its strength and vitality were gone. Where before you could send it out and have it bring you home twenty loaves of bread, in its debilitated and feeble con- dition it could drag in only ten loaves. The trouble was, the dollar was overworked. For four arduous and strenuous years it did not get a chance to rest. And it broke down under the strain. Then first aid treatment was given it and restoratives were applied, and after the trouble was diagnosed it was necessary to perform several major operations. Now its recovery is pregressing favorably. it has regained its strength, and the prognosis is good. You will be surprised to find how much power vour dollar nocw has to move merchandise in this store. It will take away better values #nd more commodities than it has for years. Feature Tagal Braid trimmed with Flowers at $7.50 A delightful variety of styles marks this as- sortment. Especially attractive are the new hats developed in a pliant lovely braid called “TAGAL.” You will find demure pokes, flower trimmed; man- nish sailors; cleverly draped turbans—or, if you wish a more elaborate hat, perhaps a little mushroom shape, veiled in ostrich with just a touch of briliiant color— will please yotr fancy. g The season’s favored colors are found in this lot, Henna, Pearl, Navy Blue, Brown, Jade and Pheasant.
