The Month of May
in California, with its wealth of sunshine, warms our thoughts to summer rainment, with Lingerie Suits and Waists easily claiming first place therein. This leads us to the statement that in these particular lines we are better prepared than ever before to meet your wants. Dainty suits the creations of New York's best makers, combining the sheer white fabrics of fashion with lovely laces and elegant embroideries, priced from $7.50 to $75.00.
It seems a waste of words to attempt to tell of the Waist worthiness here assembled. No maker of note was overlooked in our selections, and so there is variety as well as beauty and worth in the line. Priced from $1.25 to $25.00 each.
