opening of fashionable millinery and fancy

care. and II probably one Of the finest asaort-
ments ever brought to this city. consisting OF
honneta. hats, flower fans. combs card cases,
brushes. tortoise shell. ivory pearl. Jet
goods and hairwolk: also a largo assortment OF
Vienna gilt ornaments. BY all means give
Schilling a call Cn Monday.
A great mistake IL often made by parties hav-

TO be considered in estimating tho relative
merits OF artists. Many times one let's personal
considerations guide him in such things. This

pictores taken by all in the business. Any one

up OF some pictures. whilst Others have woful
