Introductory Display MARCH 28, 1908. 9 And Sale Days O-MORROW is the second day of the most important week of this store’s career. A great deal is expected of a new store—and especially of a new store that has laid down for itself and carried out a policy unique in New York dry-goods retailing—the combination of moderate prices with a resolve to show nothing that is not distinctive and individual. This is, and is to remain, a store as beautiful as any in its stocks and appointments, but it is also a practical store appealing to the woman of cultivated taste and of average means. And all this must be—and is—exemplified in this first Spring display. It is not only a “showing,” but a selling event. We, ourselves, are not a bit less proud of the values presented than we are of the character of the merchandise. Both are typical of this store. The Spring Millinery In this city at this time, a millinery display that is merely first-class is merely commonplace. To make the deep impression that we wished it to make, our own millinery display had to be extraordinary in scope, irresistible in beauty, unprecedented in values offered. ‘ The foremost millinery expert and designer in the United States has given the best that her art and skill could compass to attain this result. The result awaits your inspection. From Raris are characteristic productions of the very best modistes. Susanne Talbot, Camille Roger, Lewis, Paulette et Berthe and Caroline Reboux are represented, with several others of less fame, but no less genius. With these, a striking demonstration of the powers of our own designers is given. Included in the latter is a collection of specially-trimmed, specially-priced hats At 10.00 Each which we intend to make a permanent feature of the millinery department and which has all the superiority that such a permanent feature should have to win success. W u S fi The distinctive style and individuality of the suits omens pring and dresses described below, which form a part Suits and of our Spring exhibit, are the achievement of a new department manager, our new dress-chief, whose Dresses ripened experience and style-judgment place him in the front ranks of dress experts. The prices, as will be seen on an examination of the handsome garments themselves, are from ten to thirty per cent. lower than the cus- tomary figures on garments of anywhere near the same style and beauty. Among these are two handsome models in dresses made specially ‘for this selling. Made of silk taffeta, in a variety of colorings and designs. They are out-and-out 25.00 values At 18.50 Each. We submit for the most critical inspection 400 tailored suits, each a fetchingly clever copy of exclusive French models that have but lately arrived here. Every model is shown that has won favor with wellegowned women, including the dip- back coats, close-fitting, cutaway coats with embroidered mannish vest and the new circular and gored skirts The range of fabrics includes serges, cheviots, tweeds, mannish mixtures, rajahs, taffetas, pongees, marquisettes and voiles; every color is shown that is correct for suits of such beauty and distinction. Suits as fashionably designed and made can be had only at ten to fifteen dollars above our prices— At 27.50, 35.00, 45.00 and 50.00 Tailored suits of linon and repp in two and the new three-piece models; a dozen chic, tashionable designs shown in white and new colorings, at 16.50, 18.50, 20.00, 25.00 to 125.00 Second Floor.
