PHILADELPHIA, Monday, Feb. II, 1888,

Concerning Linens.
We think it wise to tell some
thing special about Linens.
Three main facts about them
we want widely known;
First - We probably sell
more housekeeping Linens
than any other house in Amer
lea We gather them by per-
sonal search all over Europe
We buy at the least prices and
bring the goods from points of
production with every possible
economy. A small commits.
sion is our only net profit, and
the retail trade gets the full
benefit Of all our facilities.
Second-Somepr prices quoted
here are speculative, some reg
ular; but a matching of goods
with prices in the whole retail
market will bring the decision
in our favor.
Third-With us Linen is
Linen. Jute or cotton we do
not sell for Linen.

that the earth was round until 4OO
years ago. lie speaks of the fleiades
as being the center OF the universe and
it was afterwards found that they were.
He also speaks of weighing the wind
but none knew then il could be done.
There is no educational inquiry which
does not throw light OH the Bible. All
nations sprang from one blood. The
difference in mankind now is only Il
matter of educati ~.
The race was first ilOmadic, next
shepherds, agriculturist, conservative,
