My dress shop at 1522 Broadway is to be closed. I am going out of
business to enter a larger field. I have become connected with the great
dress department of Frank & Seder's and will direct their French lloom
of fine gowns, which I am certain will develop into one of the best gown
sections in the city for exclusive modes that interpret the latest thought
in fashion.
My first step is to sell out my gown shop, and I am moving all my
stock to Frank & Seder's, where I will hold a sale. To make this sale of
even greater interest, I have gone to my best gown makers and secured
several hundred extremely beautiful one-of-a-kind models which I will
include at ptices that scarcely cover cost of making.
Sale Will Open Sat., June 28, Fourth Floor Frank 6? Seder's
Every gown will be sacrificed—and the prices will be so low that I
am sure you will want to select at least one or two gowns at the large

I take this opportunity of thanking you for past favors, and to ear-

ing my new department at Frank & Seder's the best in the city.
