we're worth the money; "A
inch. All down to IS
You want to know more
about them. Can't describe
ten styles, you know. Would
you read a description of one J?
Two words will answer. If
they were entirely plain you
might call them flannel. Some
are plain in the middle with
border on edge or edges, the
border slight and sketchy or of
widening stripes. Others are
speckled, and with conspicuous
stripes of plaid or of almost
Persian complication Of colors,
not finely mingled like Persian
weaving, but needing a little
distance for full effect, on the
speckled ground.
Ten more of large gay
plaids, on similar cloth. They
are 80 inches wide. All $I.25
till now; now 75c! What do
you think of that?
Single lines of silvery silk
on another hannel-like stuff, the
stuff of whatever color you
like, the silvery silk in lines SO
small they seem to partake of
the color; blush on blue, red
dish on redr-clear silver on neu-
trail colors only; 44-inch and
81 till recently; dropped to
75c They are very dainty
stuffs.
Like the last in wool and
silk, but with CROSSINGS added,
making little squares of wool
and color enclosed in tiny
squares of silk ; but the silk
not always silvery; gold and
silver and colors 44-inch and
81 till lately; dropped to 75cl
There S a wider (5o-inch) and
heavier cloth with those same
stripes Of silvery silk a third Of
an inch apart all over it. 75c
a yard
Very heavy wool diagonal,
soft, substantial, springy, yield
ing a little in thickness, strong
and tough. A week or two age
one day it suddenly dropped
from 81 to Is 1t had beer
higher-SI.25. 1t may have
been dear at SI.25. 1t WASH
dear at 81. But what do yor
think of it now at 75c? 1t is
40 inches wide.
To illustrate this diagonal
There's another diagonal no
SO heavy and not SO pretty, nc
finer, on the whole inferior
This has kept its original price
$I,25, till now. 1t is an ole
lot now. 1t might go to the
remnant counter; but it goe.
SO well with that diagonal mex
above that we leave it there a
75c.
Plain basket flannel, plair
weave and plain color, 70
dresses, 44-inch, has dropped
from Is to SOC.
All-wool cashmere, any colo
you want, for 37Hcl You'll
find it outside at soc. W.
shall have to put it up our
selves by and by unless SOM
) accident happens to hinder.
, We've touched, we may say
one class of dress-stuffs an,
only one, besides that soc cash
mere for 37Hc. That class
American dress-stuffs. The
constitute a small part {
such a stock of dress-stuffs a
we have here.
Now is not the time for fol
eign fancies to drop. If the
went down on our hands in tn
midst of selling time we shout
consider we had failed il
choosing for you.
There are staple foreig
dress-stuffs. If they went dow
on our hands, we should cor
slider we have Numbered some
how.
We may as well say tn
same of American dress.stuH,
these that have gone dowr
They haven't gone down o
our hands. They are new
They are fresh from the NAL
ers. The makers are losing tn
money, not we. We are ju'
as happy in selling these stuff
r that have dropped to ridiculou
a ptices-we are the happier b.
cause they have dropped. w
decidedly like ridiculous fig
