Instead of ‘‘forty stores” here, there are actually eighty-seven within our doors. Each department occupies its own space, as much as if it were a little sepa- rate. house inside of the larger one. It has its own family of goods living in its own exclusive premises. So many varieties of goods under one roof is not only a convenience to buyers, but it affords economies of administration, as we are sure to be busy in some parte of the store, every day. A visit to these newly and intelligently arranged buildings will not fail to be of interest. It is against our rules to ask any one to buy, though our goods are here to be sold, and the politest attention is given to effect sales and to please cus- tomers, A Stylish Coat-and-Dress Idea | Straight from Paris to Wanamaker’s JHE pretty coat-and-dress illustrated above was one of the best styles seen at the Longchamps race-course. Here it 1s, copied in a smart, cool, striped cotton suiting, in blue-and-white, black- and-white and lavender-and-white. The dress is a princess over-walst model, fitted plain over the hips, with side plaits below; the neck {s piped with contrasting colors, and waist closed in front with two rows of buttons; skirt has deep bias fold. The coat 1s 36 inches long, cut- away style, with semi-fitted back; seams are slashed from below walst- line, and is closed in front with one button. Turndown collar with revers, three-quarter length sleeves, collar and cuffs trimmed with contrasting colors. Smart and altogether charming dresses at $8 Each Other Summer dresses and Suits include Linen Tailored Suits, in plain colors, at $10 to $43.60. Tailored Suits, in striped Suitings, at $4.75 to $21.
