now botter prepared to show the La
dies of Abbcyille District a handsome
stock Of Dry Goods than ever before.
Tho Ladies' are especially invited to
examine their stock before buying.
They will always strive to keep goods
suited to tho taste Of the Ladies OF
our District. In the Dress Goods De-
partment they have beautiful plain,
striped and plaid Poplins, DcLanes,
Empress Cloths, Reps, Flannels,
Silks, etc., Black Alpacas, Opera
Flannel, DeBagcs and Silks. They
have full stock of House Furnishing
Goods in Blankets, Counterpanes,
Shectings, Towclinge, Curtain Mate
rials, Shades, Table Damasks, Diapers,
Long Cloths, Napkins, Doylas, Lin.
ems, Carpetings, and Wall Papering.
Also, Hosiery, Gloves, Braids, Tapes,
Hanllcrchicfs and everything in
White Goods.
In tho Gcntlcmen's Furnishing De-
partmcnt they have a splendid line
of Cloths, Cassimeres, Corduroys,
Jeans, kerscys, Shawls, Collars,
Cuffs, Cravats, Hose, Suspenders,
Shirt Fronts, Gloves, Shirts, and
Drawers.
Abbcvillc can boast of as fine q
Millinery House as any in in tho
State Of South Carolina-in fact, as
fine as any in any city, North or
South. Tho stock will compare with
any Retail House in Charleston, Bal
timore or New York. The Ladies'
can have no plea for sending off for
their millinery any longer, for Mcssrs.
Fowler & Mcdonald can show as pret-
ty goods, as fine goods, as stylish
goods as can be found in Baltimore
or New York. And, besides, they
can prove their prices to be from Is
to SO per cent. lower than city prices.
They have every style of Hat and
Bonnet that is out. Should any new
and novel style make it's appearance
in New York, they have arrange
ments by which to get it Immediately,
hence there is no necessity for the La
dies of Abbeyille to pay city prices
when they can do better at home.
Mrs. Sassard has had experience,
both in Europe and America, and, We
think, has the confidence of every
Lady of taste in Abbeville. She is
assisted by Mrs. Jno. A. Wicr whose
good taste and SIX il in this Depart
ment is we'll known to the Ladies of
Abbeville, and will always be pleased
to see her friends at the Emporium of
Of Fashion. Mrs. Sassard and Mrs.
Wior will take pleasure to show the
Ladies, Flowers, Feathers, Bridal
