store for a liat--the styles, the colors and the ini-
iuensity of the showing compels attention. We
specialize in huts and this spring’s showing is one Of
the greatest and most authorative showings to he
seen in Canada. One traveller told us that our hats
were the “classiest” and the best selected he had
seeii in all Canada. \\`e will let that go for what its
worth. But one thing `we will say, is that we put
our very best efforts and skill into selecting ,hats--
hats that will become so popular as to advertise them-
selves. \\`e linow that once the young inen see
them that the sales will exceed all former records.
Tliat's the reason we ordered double the quantity of
previous years---so as to fully sustain our _reput iiiou
