Rare indeed that you can find so many garments of such a high character of any one line But here come four factories to us at one time with their PRESENT STYLES TO BE CLOSED OUT One-Third Below Prevailing Prices. THIS IS WHYThese big makers have just closed a busy season. It was impossible for them to calculate the num- ber of ‘each kind they would need. Then, too, some stores countermanded orders.

The waists are in reigning styles—those that sgow off the figure with splendid effect. Buttons in back, and then those cute cuffs or pointed cuffs or bishop cuffs; others with severe stock, the rich lace-trithmed stock; the low bust; the silk girdles, and so on; newest and prettiest of the season.
