light. The only possible OBJ
lection to them is that they are
easy to tear; and that applies
to all that are fine and light.
The coarser, heavier, stronger
cloths cost less, of course.
The rubber coating is better
on fine cloths,
These 81 g~ossamers, perfect
every way, announce a new
condition Of things in rubber
clothing. What is it? Rubber
overgarments black and ugly
are giving place to rubber
overgarments with all the col
or and beauty of dress-stuffs.
The black are at good as ever;
but there's something else as
good and prettier. The black
are going to be worn in the
lower grades of cloth; but
there's going to be no sale tor
| costly black. The maker and
merchant who have no costly
black on hand are fortunate.
One of the most distinguish
ed makers of gossamer cloth
ing has a stock OF these 81 or
S. garments. He thi ks the
sooner they are sold the better
for him; and SO we get them
for less than half their recent
value.
Besides, that maker makes
the new ones, the pretty ones,
the checks and stripes and
| spangles, the colors and frost
work.
He is willing to run his loss
on his remnant ofcostly black
to account Of advertising the
new ones, the pretty ones, the
check and stripes and span
giles, the colors and frost-work
and SO we get both the old and
new.
The new, the colors, cost
"a to $40. 50; extravagant.
The old. the costly black, go
down to $2-while they last.
By The middle Market-strect door.
Crazy Grape continues the
first among the bargains. A
stuff of fashion still in the
heigh of favor-also a solid
and pleasant cloth. When
ever we mention it, VIC think OF
ladies' cloth--that SPLENDID
dollar ladies' cloth that we are
selling tons Of for scventy-fVc
cents; it is like that ladies'
cloth, and it isn't like it.
Crazy Grape was a dollar stuff
too-now fifty cents and nifty
| inches wide. There nevcrwas
such a bargain-a stuff as good
or about as good, as that dot
lar ladies' cloth, and fifty
cents!
Enough for a dress, S.!

ladies' cloth was the biggest
bargain VIC ever heard of iii
trade. But think Of the Crazy

We are about as happy IN
| American crinkled seersuckers
as in French sateens.
We have all the French sa-
teens in the Country of the
! styles in favor-literally all
there are in the country. Not
enough for a dress can be got
in town but here. We know
we'll enough not all in the
country.
Seersuckcrs substantially the
same. There are several
grades of them. We have the
sort that's commonly sold for
* cents; the sort that nearly
everybody wants; the popular
sort; light, fine, not too open,
not too close; and the sort en-
braces probably fifty different
STYLES. These are: little slight
" crinkled PIN stripes; browns,
blues. ecrus; and wider decid-
edly crinkled stripes, an eighth
to three quarters inch wide
stripes, two oolors, these com
binations: pink-and-white, light
blue-and-white, navy-blue-and-
white, ecru-and-white, brown
adm white, gray and white,
black and gray.
Not a yard of these, we
think, are anywhere else in
town. There are thicker seer
suckers, heavy as bed-ticking.
These are coarser, There are
several sorts. We have the
light and pretty ones.
We have others at Is cents
