about thrcc-quarters value. A
few are shown in the window
of 1901 Chestnut, each one
marked with its price. Very
more are within.
The materials are nainsooks,
mullsand Swisscs.
Some are very plainly made
with little Or no trimming be-
yond some def handling of the

elaborate enough. The ex-
IRENE prices are $3.50 and 500.
An excellent plain dress is sold
for S; neat and well made.
Lowpriccsc can almost always
be put upon such goods a little
late in the season. It's rather
carly now; but profitable max
ing appears to be over already.
Just now you haze the double
advantage of many such dresses
to choose from and low prices.

Black grenadines have been
one of the most distinguished
features of our trade for two
months past. We have had
the finest in the world, and all
grades down to the poorest
that we care to keep; and a
wonderful variety of patterns.
Figured grcnadinc s that
brought s. lately are selling at
81. And this may be taken as
a general indication Of what we
are doing in grenadines.

An extraordinary dcbeige,
extraordinary in quality and
width, we are selling at 50
cents; AZ inches. No ladywho
can use dcbeigc will be inclined
to pass it; for it is worth twice
the money.
The melangcs at 40 to 60
cents arc worth a half more,
just about. There are four
qualities, and somewhere about
fifty color effects.

If drcss-goods are lower than
they were elsewhere-we don't
say they are. Advertisements
say they are; but there is a cerr/
tain shyness in those same adj
vertisemcnts,w which makes them
not very impressive.-If dress
goods are lower elsewhere in
our city, the fall is due to the
spectacle here of three
great classes of the most fash
ionable dress-goodsata fraction
of theirvalue:: Frenchmelanges,
small checks and small-check
stripes of wool and silk-and-
wool, and black damage.
We mention these three, be-
they stand out from the
rest of the stock, conspicuous in
two ways; they are fashionable,
peculiarly so; and they are at
half, thirds or three-quar-
ters value.
