Plenty Of readymade dresses
OF such sorts as are most in
demand now, viz, substantial
and not costly.
Also plenty Of white muslin
dresses below value; and a
fair variety Of the more costly
stuff dresses.

There is no danger of over
stating the advantage in buying
black grenadines now. There
is clear dollar a yard to be
gained in most Of the rich ones.

Drcss-goods trade with us
is now very largely upon goods
below value. Checks, check
stripes, n1clangcs, debeige, and
others, arc at half and two
thirds. Not all We have; VIC
don't mean that; some of all
these and other sorts. And
low prices are no reelection on
the goods. Whatever we buy
low we sell low. Of course we
lose money on goods some
times. We are not talking
about that now.

Cream cashmere shawls of
S quality, with here and there
a dark thread just visible a
yard off, $3.50. India chuddas
that cost FIVE or ten times as
much have such little imperfcc-
tons. Imitation chuddas arc
made with them purposcly,
But, as they don't belong to
cashmercs, we sell as above.
1875 Chestnut.
1t is wonderful how dress
goods have dropped here.
Einc-wool and silk-and-wool
things at thirds; some even
at half; the best things in the
store at that. Literally true!
What in all dress goods is bet
ter than a fine dcbeige? We
have one at 50 cents that is
well worth a dollar. What
has proved better this season
than small-check effects? Why,
we have thirty sorts at two
thirds and below. What better
than d fine mclange? Two
thirds; and fftyto choose from.
There is no cxhausting them.
Many counters, southeast from center.

Belgian pillow linen and
Shooting, almost white; almost
as white as Irish; and a dollar
goes as farm them as a dollar

have just come; and is a good
time to emphasize the advan-
tage we always give in such
ways. Indeed we consult your
interest more than any other
way by drawing from each
country its best, and by reject
ing whatever we can get better
from another source,

rewarded for our patient pur-
suit of good quality in it.
