BY far the largest and beet assortment of Voile Blouses that we have
ever offered our customers. Each style is a creation in Itself, and
is made4fter the latest and best models. No Voile Blouses have been
carried from last season, so our present showing is new in every respect
and can be relied upon as being correct.
The range is large but the quantity of each style is small, some as low
as one blouse to a style. These new Blouses range in price from $3.00
to $7.50 each, and there is value in each one.
