Tut Q.UALiTt'STORe op- BEGINNING Monday, Annual Fall Sale of Notions. Beginning Monday, Sewing Week all over the store. A good old-fashioned common-sense Sewing Week. Women who sew have little fear of the high cost of living. Their humming sewing machines, their flying needles, lower the cost of everything they wear. Better even than that, costs can be lowered on many things that the whole family wears. LININGS OF ALL KINDS Everybody wants fancy linings, so' far. Fortunately there are quantities of just the kinds most wanted ready right now in the Lining Store.

This means that their mechanism is especially simple and that even an inexperienced needlewoman can soon leam to operate them expertly. An Eldredge two spool sewing machine will save its price over and over again in the. home making of the children's clothes and grown-up blouses, dresses, bathrobes, and so on.
