HANDSOME DISPLAY OF DRY GooDs.-There
are many things which Philadelphians may well
feel proud of-not the least of which is the archi-
tectural beauty of the stores and warehouses which
adorn the thoroughtares of the Quaker City.
During one of our recent perambulations on
Eighth street, we were attracted by the handsome
exterior OF one of the largest Dry Goods Emporlums
that busy avenue of trade and stopped to admire
not only the beauty of the store, but tho elegant
and tasteful manner in which the goods were
arranged in the large show windows. The day was
sutry, and with view to exhibit such goods as the
exigencles of the season required gossamer fabrics
OF all the prevailing styles and coors were arranged
in the most inviting and artistic manner. There
were also to be seen Summer Goods of heavier
texture such as White and Buff Pique, French
Percales, Fancy Linens, Popins, Alpacas Travel
ling Dress Goods, Tourists Stripes etc. etc.. winch
are always much sought after during the summer
months. To be brief, this store presents such
brilliant display of Ladies' Dress Goods, that our
enthusiasm has quite carried us away, and has led
us into an item which we must now close 1t may
however, be not amss TO mention that the store we
have alluson to Il that of those enterprsing mer-
chants, Messrs. bIcCurdY & Dunkle. No I4O N.
