To insure this, even the very low sale prices have been again cut. Women’s Apparel Cannot Be Held Over Season Ladies’ garments are not like hardware. They cannot be carried over from one season to another. We must sell our apparel NOW at practically what it will bring. And we have certainly cut it low enough to sell anything.

Well-Made, Smart Style Coats $14.75, $19.75 and $24.75 It may seem impossible to se- cure good, well-tailored Coats for this price, but it’s a fact. See for yourself.
