For the Spring Campaign.


kinds begins at an earlier date each
year, Newman s. Co. determined to be
ION time'' this season, and therefore
placed their orders in December and
January, and, in many cases, even at
an earlier date than that, for all lines
of goods needed for the early spring
trade, and they have been coming in
freely during the past thirty days.
This has been particularly fortunate
at this time, as it has enabled them to
get in the bulk of their spring stock at
the extremely low freight rates that
have prevailed lately, and even the
late strike caused them no serious in
convenience.
DRESS GOODS.
In consequence of this course their
stock of dress goods in all the seasonal
bic wool and other fabrics is complete,
and they are prepared to show such a
variety in this department that it
would seem impossible THAT any one
should fail to find something to please.
All of the better class of goods were
selected from the first importations,
which are always the best, and in most
cases it will be impossible to replace
them later in the season. This renders
them all the more desirable as no lady
cares to see the town flooded with a
pattern which she happens to have Sc
lected. 1t is difficult to describe any of
these goods so as to convey any intelli-
gent idea of them and personal in
spection is cordially invited, or if out Of

cheerfully mailed on application.
TRIMMINGS.
A great variety of braids and braid
passementeries are shown, together
with handsome lines of cord trimmings

and crochet trimmings, they have some
elegant goods. Their lines of pushes,
surahs and similar goods are also COM

you can make no mistake as every fab

very best that can be made for the
money. The dyes are perfect and you
can depend upon their not turning
rusty, and taken altogether they are
the most reliable goods made. You
will know them by the vanished board
on which they are rolled and which is
the Prestly trademark.

French and domestic satines ranging
in prices from ID to 40 cents yard and
