We have heard the above remark dozens OF
nmes made by ladies visiting our Millinery
department We do not wonder at 1t much,
Tor We have the very handsomest display in
the city. Mrs. Cahill, one of our artistic head
mllllners, well known to Pittsburg and Ale
gheny ladies for her taste and elegance in
millinery, has returned from three weeks
visit East, with the loveliest line of imported
novelties imaginable. One of our leading
hats is to be the Marguerite" which comes
In fine Milan and Tuscan straws also in pretty
tulles and laces. The Neapolitan Poke Bon
nets, Toques and tight-ftting Hats come
among the most desirable shapes and colors.
Iulle and Lace Hats are going to be quite
the thing this season. We have some lovely
creations in both. The rich old Chantilly
naces are again in vogue. Crepe deChene
Embroideries come in exquisite patterns for
Ioques. We have beautiful lot in all pretty
shades of the latest colors. Fine Gold Tinsel
Laces still hold their own, and will be much
worn, though Fancy Ribbons, In great varie-
ties, seem to be the prevailing trimmings. We
nDd the newest shades in early stock greens,
vieux rose and early autumn browns take like
wldfre. We are well prepared, however, to
supply the demand. In flowers, we have i'm
ported sprays that are marvels of beauty. Have
been mistaken for natural flowers time and
again, the deceptive art is so perfect. People
touch and smell them before they realize 1t.
We have decided on grand spring
