boaat of the high standing she holds In
the field of American art, I had the
good fortune, while visiting the Art In
stitute of seeing the exhibition then be
ing held by the Society of American art
ists. The collection was large, and, tech
nically speaking, was one of the most In
teresting exhibitions held for years. Many
schools and phases of art-work were rep
resentedthe tired and wooly, the impres
slonlbtlc, the overloading of color for col
or's sake, the dramatic style, the calm
and majestic, specimens of brilliant tech
nique, the canvas that lends Itself to
story-ielllng. Out of all these one feels
the growth which will develop Into a
great, National art; for there Is seen an
upward tendency in the portrayal of the
simple and beautiful truths of nature."

It's "The Same Thing for Less Money" or a better article for the same v
money, $25 and $30 garments, plenty of them, for $22.50 and -$27.50.
THIS SEEMS REASONABLE.
When a theater is crowded night after
night it Is a sure Indication of a first
class performance, and that the audience
is receiving full value for their money.
When a store Is crowded day after day
and the business Increases from year to
year so that the cream of the trade Is al
most monopolized by one firm. It must In
dicate the best possible value for the
money zoins over the counters, combined
with correct style and superior quality
of material. The success of the Sllverfield
Fur Manufacturing Company has .been
phenomenal, and Is the result of the ex
cellent line of all kinds of furs carried
by that firm, and the style that character
izes every garment that leaves Silver
field's establishment. Correct dressers
can tell a Sllverfield garment a block
away, and his famous collar has never
been successfully duplicated. Present
your wife with a suitable fur garment
Christmas time. It will be appreciated,
and Sllverfield will hold any desired ar
ticle until that time for responsible per
sons. Don't fall to see the many Christ
mas novelties shown by this firm.

nowadays everybody seems to have the

Eartner's interest in this concern. We
ave never borrowed a single dollar out
side of the firm since commencing busi
ness, nor do we feel that we want to
take another partner Into the firm now.
We are therefore confronted by the ne

our present stock Into caBh or short-time

1 the limited time at our command, we
have commenced a special closing - out
