OUR LONG DRESS GOODS COUNTERS

OUR LONG DRESS GOODS COUNTERS
are full Of life and activity these
December days. How could il
be otherwise with Winter Just
before us, and such a superb
stock OF Winter Dress Goods
the products Of two continents
displayed in apparently endless
Iprofusion on a thousand feet OF
counters?
The question is sometimes
asked; Why carry so large a
stock, representing almost ev-
erything that is produced
abroad or at home? Would not
a smaller line equally satisfy the
demand, taking less room and
leaving space for other lines of
goods2 Our answer is: Dress
Goods with us are the great
specially of the business, and
we prefer to have not alone a
sufficient, but an overlooking
stock, not being content simply
to meet the demand but leading
it always, and giving our patrons
the choice OF the worlds pro-
ducts.
Devoting ourselves not to
general merchandise, but to the
great Dry Goods business ex-
clusivcly, we prefer in that spec
ial business to lead the country,
devoting our whole time and at
tention, with all the facilities of
our great organization, to the
service Of our patrons in this
line. And with every added
year as the business grows
greater and has become Of ma
tional repute, with orders COM
ing to us from every State and
Territory of the fundamentally
from New York, Boston and
other centres Of commerce-we
feel increasingly satisfied to con
tinue and still further perfect the
service to the great public, in
the special but comprehensive
lines which belong to the bust
ness Of a well-ordered dry
goods house.
We shall be pleased to fur
nish samples when desired, and
assure our patrons that their
orders will be be given imme-
diate and careful attention IN our

RICH LACE IN ANTWERP.
The Genuine Article-A Young Lady'e
Treasure-Cherished Heir1ooms-

Treasure-Cherished Heirlooms-
[Cor. N o. Picayunel
Lace in quantity IS never seen IN the
street in Antwerp, unless it is worn by
English or Americans; for no Antwerp
lady would wear her rich lace III the
street or allow herself to appear in
cheap imitation. These rules still hold
good, though there is less rigidity than
formerly, and young girls wear con-
trasts and their mammaS' designs In
form and fabric which they would not
have dreamed of ten years ago. The
domestic and social habits, however,
hold good and are maintained as mat
ter of pride by the genuine ladies OF
Antwerp.
One of these was only child and would
naturally have inherited a magnlficient
collection of lace, gathered and inherited
by her mother. But she was not In
ciined to work with the needle, and re-
belled against the necessary condition
imposed, of learning how to mend and
actually make lace, so as to be able to
keep it in perfect condition. Her
mother did not force her, but simply
told her that the lace in that case would
never be hers, but would be left to some
members of the family able and willing
TO entertain" and care for it. This
threat was sufficient to induce the
Young lady to fulfill her mothers
wishes, and now she is not only the pos
SCISSOR of one of the finest private collec-
lions of lace in Antwerp, both modern
and antique, but can repair any OF it 50
| that it Is exactly the same as before.
A lace as mace in Antwerp is a very
very desirable possession. 1t is not cut up
and wasted from the piece, as with US,
but an accurate pattern is sent and the
| dress is outlined from it and the pattern
wrought in accordance to cost. The
lace pieces for bonnets, fans, parasols,
and every article of the toilet for which
lace is used are all made and finished
upon the edge in the same way and are
| beautiful and permanent possessions.
The cost for real lace dress is not more
than one covered with imitation lace il
with us, but the difference in elegance
and finish, in permanent beauty, can
not be put into words. 1t is difference
in the actual morality and esthetic in
fiuence of lifetime.
An Antwerp lady of the middle or
business class looks forward to the &C.
luisition of such dress as New York
lady of the same condition in life might
to the acquisition of sealskin cloak.
But the Antwerp lady more frequently
gets the dress than her New York sister
the cloak; for the reason, probably, that
less money is spent in Antwerp on
trif1es and on the costly articles OF
street attire, bonnets, parasols, and,
above all, gloves, which are such an i'm
portant and costly item in America.
Besides, the men know that lace dress
means something; it is equivalent to
their dress coat 1t will be worn ct the
great family reunions and anniversaries,
over all black, over color, with silk
sleeves under them, with lace sleeves
alone; in short, with slight additional
expense it will make several dresses,
and be great economy as well as ele-

The Tele graphs "Eaghtniug Arrester."


To the uninitiated it is great puzzle how
the dangers Of lightning are averted where
there are 80 many conductors OF electricity
as in a telegraph Office. More than 2,OOO
different wires come into the Western Union
building, and run more or less directly to the
desks of the operators. Even when less
electric attractions are wanting, most people
confess to a certain feeling of insecurity
when the elements rage and wake up terrify-
ing flashes of forked fury. Nearly half the
operators are yoSdng women, and they may
be expected to share the general sentiments
a their sex concerning this uncertain and
wicked looking force. But science has pro-
vided an answer to this, as well as to almost
all other puzzles which stand in the way or
human progress.
Every wire, as it enters the building,
passes through the bottom of long narrow
board, and then again through it at the top.
This board is lightning arrester. LIZ the
current is heavy, its first effect is to deprive
IF it of much of its force. Should even this
fail to deprive the current of its fatal power,
and it passes on to the top of the board, it
touches spring which drops instantly and
shuts of all connection with the operating
room. The spring is called the plush mag
net. and beyond it no overcharge of light
ming, whether proceeding from storm or
from contact with other wires, can possibly
go. Absolute security from outside cleo
trical influences is thus insured. The wires
proceed directly from the street to tie
switchboard in the operating room, where
they are stopped. The wires attached to th'
machines in the room all run to this board
and connections are established there will

An Item Of Exnense.

An item in the expense account of the
street railways which in the course of the
year amounts to good round sum is that for
salt used on the tracks in snowy or sloppy
weather. At every viaduct, curve and cross
ing man is stationed with bucket of salt,
busily sprinkling the tracks. When the en-
tire street railway system of the city is con.
sidered it will at once be seen that the out
lay for the material used and labor employed
reaches far into the thousands Of dollars.
