An IMPROVED AND HANDSOME AWNING
Our energetic dry goods merchants, VIM. r.
Riley " Brother, having just converted their
old quarters, opposite the Centre market,
into two magnificent stores, have also con-
ceived the idea of erecting In front Of their
spacious premises a roof-awniug, extending
from the building line to the edge of the
gutter curb. The awning is exceedingly or.
namental as well Us useful, and 1t height is
some eighteen feet, thus admitting light and
pure air into the stores, and unobstructInp
the view, which is not the case with the
miserable low canvas awnings so generally
IN vogue. The roof being OF closely-clamped
boards, during rainy weather the sidewalk
underneath of course does not become wet,
and should this style OF awning generally
prevail there would be no use for umbrellas
In wet seasons, nor ladies' sun-shades to
protect the dear creatures from the rays of
Old Sol In the summer soltlce. with such
taste and forcthought as displayed by Tho
Mcssrs. Riley In the aforementioned i'm
| lro'ement 1t Ia unnecessary for us to fur-
ther remark than that their display of fancy
and staple dry goods is unequalled In this
District, and their prices will be found as
low as the lowest. The stores are located at
