New Goods ut Reduced Prices.

The sales Of the season at ii. j. Gillen's
have been so immense that in spite Of an
unexampled stock for this city, he has been
compelled during the past week to replenish
every department with new goods The
stock is now again complete, and the house
equipped to meet the most exarting demand
of the season in variety or quality OF goods.
This morning there will be on sale the new
goods open during the week, Of which special
mention may be made of the
ORDERS GOODS STOCK.
Including q splendid line Of challi delains,
wool Henriettas in all new shades, black
Henriettas, wool and silk Henriettss, col
ored silks in great quantities, black silks OF
the finest qualities at marked reduction In
price, wool dress goods in great variety,
beautiful line of satines in all the new
colors, lawns in great variety at prices
ranging from Sc to l2!c, all new fabrics in
white dress goods, something choice in fine
embroidered suits, etc.,-in fact, this stock
is really 80 immense that at the space at
command is quite impossible to do it
justice. 1t is must be seen. OF course, the
lateness of the season has given the house
great advantages in these late purchases, and
guarantees lower prices on all these mate
rails for it is the will always of this house
to give this advantage to the public.
THE CARpr Stock
Has also been so marked success as to
force the house to replenish this stock also
during the past two week. AS a conse-
quence, this department also offers new
stock at new and, therefore, lower prices.
Buyers who have not purchased this season
will ind that II. ]. Gilllen is now offering a
really superb stock at prices simply unap-
proachable by other houses on any line from
a low priced ingram to the finest tapestry
bydy brussels and velvets. In this depart
the buyer will find also complete line of
window shades and curtains from the cheap
est fabrics that the finest line contains.
THE BOOT AND SHOE DEPARTMENT
Continues TO astonish all with the superior
line of goods and the remarkable low price
1t is fact that both these elements of
strength have more than doubled the sales
of this department daring this season.
THE GROCERY ESTABLISHMENT.
Has been too frequently sighted in notices
of this house; but the fact is one can but
say that the department is perfect, and that
whether purchases be in large quantities for
which trade the house offers extra advan-
tages) or in small, the house is daily making
prices that cannot be beaten anywhere, as
the trade generally understands. Farmers,
too, will note the fact that ell produce is
taken at the highest price and paid for in
cash.
All invited to call.
