like the French as we have the
means Of making this side OF
the sea, I2H, IS and 25c. A
yard away you can't tell where
they are made; but that we can
say of anything. The cotton
itself is not so fine; and the
spinning. The printing fol
lows hard after the French.
Scotch, Anderson's, ging-
know all about. They
are plenty yet. 4oc.
Crocodile cottons; spider
web, wiry. crapy stuff at the
bottom, roughened by many
devices of texture and color;
the foundation of all the dull
shades from cream through
Gcru to hardwood the crapy
texture interspersed with lace
work, stripes, checks, loops,
Jumps, humps, with color illum-
nations seersuckerish-rough
dry them in the sun-fner
than any seersucker very light
and very rough. Scotch. soc.
Another similar Scotch If
regular crazy one-color stuff
with clusters of kinky and lum-
ply and smooth and bunchy
stripes of variegated candle
wicking. Colors as dainty as
the stuff itself is uncouth-
it would be uncouthifit weren't
in the tip-top of fashion-not
all Of dainty colors; there are
.navy-blue, brown, even black.
To combine with these illumin-
atoms there are crazy c~ottons,
the same without the variega-
ted wicking. Sold in combina-
ton both soc.
Crazy spider-web why cot
tons printed with large figures,
cream ground, black and col
ored figures; American; I6c.
Plain open canvas with stripes
variegated bunchy candle
wicking American !; 25c'
Tennis stripes as far remov-
ed from tennis stripes of for
mer years as they can be clus-
tiers and sprinkles of stripes,
quiet and gorgeous, one or
two-colored and many-colored
all-cotton, IS and soc; cotton
with stripes ofwool, Csc. Wide
enough for length of skirt, 80
inch.
Batiste, fine, sheer, cream
with dainty figures printed in
colors, or blue or garnet with
white figures, I6c. Thisis the
stuff that has largely taken the
place of printed linen lawn.
Tan batiste embroidered,
S. and 81 a dress-pattern.
Curl lawn that's the name
it goes by-Turkish-towel stuff
offner and lighter spinning
andwoof; cream; 2oc.
Black mousseline d'lnde,
fine sheer, transparent, a per
feet black, 25c.
These are all the seasonable
finer cottons at that one coun-
ter, if we haven't skipped any,
Northwest from the center.
Seersuckers, 5 to soc ayard.
The S are coarse, one color
and narrow. The so are
Scotch, extravaganza, only a
stripe Of crinkle as one Of the
decorations color and lace and
wicking and seersucker.
The practical seersucker
dress-stuffis I8c a yard. Toss
a handful oft upin theair. See
it almost float. It's the light
ness, the hneness, the crinkle,
the huffiness-take it in your
hand.
We have it at IS ; pretty but
not SO fluffy, cloudy, airy crink-
ly.
A counterful; long rows Of
shelves full Of nothing but seer
suckers.
Northwest from the center.
We have Brussels carpets
for 81 a yard. So has every
other carpet dealer. Why do
we tell of it then? Because
there's a difference.
Brussels used to be Brussels.
1t isn't any more. There's
Brussels and Brussels just as
there's tapestry and tapestry
that's an old fact, You know
that Roxbury tapestry cost 81
1--WE happen to have it for 75c
Just now and the meanest ia
pestry cost but soc. and you
pay the 81 for Roxbury willing
ly.
1t is one of the tricks of the
trade to sell soc tapestries for
75c-you can't tell the differ
ence. So tits one of the tricks
of the trade to sell 81 Brussels
for St.25-Vou can't tell1thc
