A Good-Luck Offering of
Fine Silk Dresses
$25
"Aren't you lucky ?" people will say to you if you are for
tunate enough to secure one of these silk dresses at $25.
All of them have been more expensive. Such frocks have
not been made this season to sell at anything like $25.
Crisp taffeta with all the ardor of spring. Foulard with
and without draperies of georgette. Printed summer silks,
mostly trimmed with lace. All sorts of light and darker
georgette crepes for afternoon and dinner wear. A few
dark blue serge dresses in the group.
Broken sizes. Only a few of a kind. But we think you
will find it worth while to search through the collection
for your size.

Most Luxurious of Negligees
Priced So That They Are No Longer Luxuries
As a part of the Anniversary this week the Negligee Shop is the scene of many price
reductions. Very few exceptions have been made to the general price lowering.
Some of the most lovely Lady. Teazle tea gowns and other boudoir negligees are to
be had now at large savings. Also there are the most delicate georgettes and laces
as well as opulent velvets at economies.
So fresh and charming that many brides will wish to add them to their trousseaux.

IT MAY seem like repeating the obvious to say that "It Always Pays to Shop at MEIER
& FRANK'S" and it is if you happen to be one of the many thousands who have learned
this truth from experience and regard it now as axiomatic. It is for the benefit of
those who have not wisely made the comparison that we use this rallying cry which we
back up with sufficient evidence to make it plain to all.
