Untrimmed Stra
Hat Shapes
One of the largest makers of straw hat shapes in all the East dropped into our Now
York millinery workrooms about three weeks ago and expressed a desire to close out
to some firm who could handle a quantity, his entire stock of this season's straw
shapes untrimmed. How much? asked our Mr. Hamberber a short story dicker
made, money paid and hats expresesd to us. Pretty near a carload. Guess our buyer
thought every woman In Portland would want one at the price and no wonder. Ever
hear of NEW $1.50 hat shapes for 15c before? Wo never did honest. Now these
hats or untrimmed shapes are in all the wanted colors of the stylish rough 3traTt
braids, white, navys, black, browns, red3 and tans. Splendid for present wear every
one positively a new Summer 1904 shape. You can better afford one than to go with
out at the give-away price. Regular $1.50 values. Choose all day there's plenty.
