The Opening. p'" i''H' '''''
1t was pleasant and profitable
three days, both for buyer and seller,
Notwithstanding the unfavorable
weather. Our town and the country
was well represented. Accept thanks
for kind attendance and liberal
patronage. We will say to those
not favored with the opportunity of
attending-new Dress Goods and
Millinery are coming in almost daily.
Our display will be fully as good
and even better than it was at our
opening. We give prompt attention
to all orders for Grape and Trimmed
Work in Millinery. Always on
hand a handsome assortment of
Trimmed Hats and Bonnets. New
designs appearing every day.
We're displaying from our recent
purchases, the most handsome line of
fine Dress Goods ever shown in this
city; there's no doubt about it.
flour citizens have the welfare of
our town at heart, they will patronize
our merchants every time, all things
being equal. OF course they must
be equal as to price and quality.
Think for moment, don't you
know there's quite Grand Depot
in Lambertville for Dress Goods,
Family Dry Goods, Fancy Notions
and Trimmings, Fine Millinery,
Boots, Fine Shoes and Slippers, and
lastly department for Carpetings,
Oil Cloths, Window Shades, Lace

Do you know there's a boom in
Carpets. This weeks statistics show
that over 80 per cent. of the wool
used in this country, for Carpets,
comes from Russia and its bordering
countries. A war between England
and Russia would bring about this
result no advance in price with us.
A room occupying almost the en-
tire second floor of our new building,
spacious enough, if necessary, to
match up 10 carpets at one time,
lighted with glorious sky-light-
glorious because of its immense size.

room in question is now filled with
choice designs, not only for the
Spring trade, but for the many in
the spring-time of their lives. Now
as to prices, they do not convey a
correct idea, unless the quality could
be personally inspected at the same
time; however, we give them, COM

April sat.

The New Jersey Democrats, 1t is stated,
have determined to ignore Congress sman
Pidcock, of the Fourth District, dee ming
him one whose association is not to be
sought. They have consulted and did
not invite Mr.. Pidcock to participate, and
they have arranged the division of certain
offices without asking his aid. Mr.. Pid-
cock has filed no protest, and he manifests
an indifference which may be simulated
but which looks more like the careless
ness due to consciousness Of strength.
The Fourth District representative is not
beyond crit cism, and his record has been
attacked somewhat successfully, but it
has never been said of him that it was
safe to ignore his wishes. --Nswark i'd

they will be. Opening partly
shows our fashion notions,
and partly tries your taste.

be idle afterward, think you?
