moments about Silks that are always val
liable in the eyes OF the ladies', and IL will

Small profits, quick sales, buying goods
in the largest quantities for spot cash and
selling for cash enable Spring Il Company
10 take advantage OF every forced sale IN
the Eastern markets, and their customers
can always rely on finding in their stock
all desirable fabrics at much lower values
than can be obtained elsewhere. and
prices are looked at by those who pur-
chase silks with an interest greater than
Is excited by the English and Russian
war. Well dressed ladies admit that
there is a greater wearing value In Silks
than IN any other fabric. and 70 eDcour-
age their purchase we offer
Silks.
