71e Latest Fasaions.- Since The invention
and successful introduction Of the celebrated
| Duplex Elliptic Ior doubel Spring Hoop
| Skirt by Mr.. j. w. Bradley Of New York,
the ladies' throughout the country have given
up the idea OF disearling the fashion Of wear
nghoOp skirts on account Of the peculiar and
| graceful manner in which the DuplcY Skilt-
adapt Themselves 10 every eXigeury and
emergency. So generally acceptable have
these Skirts become that the ladies regard
them as special iayoritc in view oil the
superior feasibility, lightness and durability
combined in then manufacture They also
| consider them lar more economical anl
comfortable Hoop Skirt that ever has or can
be made for all crowded assemblageA, for
the promenade OF house dress. Amy LADY
after wearing one Of these SIX IS will neYel
afterwards willingly dispense with their use
Long experience in the Manufacture Of IIooI
skirts has proven to the pioprietors Of thii
invention, that single springs will always re
tain that stiff, unyielding and bungling stylt
which has ever characterized them, wherca'
the double spring hoop or the Duplex Ellp
tic, will be found free from these objections
Notwithstanding the ability Of the manuiac
turcrs, Messrs. Vests, Bradley & Cary, tC
turn out over six thousand Skirts per day
from their large manufactures in New York
they feel obliged TO request all merchant
ordering the Duplex Elliptic Skirts, to sen,
their orders a few days before they ar,
wanted, il possible, as they arc always mos
constantly oyersold some days ahead,
