Ail the edges—-and there are no hems—of the envelope chemises at $1.65 are hand scalloped. Vest chemises, such as the Parisien- nes wear instead of knitted under- vests, are both hand scalloped and embroidered, $1. At $2, there are both Princess and Vaist-line Combinations — fashioned with either short petticoats or draw- ers, Others at $3.50 and $4.75, The $1 Chemises are surprisingly fine—and they are laundered, as are all the undermusiins in the collection. Of course, there are other Chemises, that are much finer and more elabor- ately embroidered, up to $4.50. The Drawers are all fashioned in the new and satisfactory semi-circular style—those at $1.60 are prettily embroidered in a polka-dot design. The Petticoats at $2.50 and $2.75 are fashioned with fitted tops and are hand-embroidered and scalloped. And, the Nightgowns are perfect gems! ‘Those at $2 are beautiful—and the: that are stil! prettier, up to $7.60. Fine Pink and White Albatross Nightgowns at $3.60 and $6 are the essence of refinement, for they are simply adorned with hand-scalloping and ribbon. The aforesaid Gowns*have low, square necks, but there is another style at $6 that elderly women will like, for its close- fitting turn-down collar.

Therefore, when one of these occasional disposals occurs, and these famous Carpets are sold below their full prices, there is nothing haphazard about the economy. The Mill’s surplus accumulations of Carpets held for its Cut Order business were sold to Gimbel Brothers, in recognition of their large and continued busi- ness with M. J. Whittall. There are about 5,000 yards of these fine Carpets in the offering, in full and part rolls, all perfect and of desirable designs and colors. The clean-up prices, which are being eagerly taken advantage of by owners of private houses, hotels, boarding houses and institutions, are as follows: Whittall Royal Wilton Carpets, $1.75 to $2.25 Yd., Were $3.25 to $3.75 Whittall’s Plush and Oxford Wilton Carpets At $1.65 and $1.85 Yard, Regularly $2.10 to $2.35 Whittall’s Body Brussels Carpets, $1.25 Yd., Were $1.75 to $1.85 Whittall’s Teprac Wilton Carpets at $1.65 Yd., Were $2.35 The Savings Are Easy to Figure Bixth Floor TMATY-THIAD OT. ~GIMBEL BROTHERS |
