Economical buyers will not select haphazard dresses, hats, scarves and cther things. They will work out the colour and materials that will go to make an harmonious scheme. Thre will be no clashes between hats, dresaca and coats.

Much has been written about all the delightful things on sale in the different departments of the China Emporium. but not everybody knows that there is a delightful tea-room upstairs with an excellent dancing door.
