FASHIONABLE SPRING GARMENTS.
We have exceeded every previous display In
the selection Of our present stock of ladies'
Jackets, Short Wraps and Long Garments.
They are the embodiment of style, good taste
and superiority. On the whole it is the most
fashionable line of comparatively inexpensive
spring garments we have ever shown. We have
the "Directorie," MARY Stuart which have
vest fronts, wide flap pockets and large buttons,
and have other innumerable shapes that are
equally stylish.
The long garments embrace the jacquard
Peisses,. New Connemars, Irish Peasant, Redin-
gote Directoire, Empire, London Newmsrkets,
Cloth Circulars Shawl Wraps, and other equally
fashionable shapes.
In short wraps the styles are equally DIVERSE
fed, and beaded Pelerines In new shapes, and
the light cloth Modjeskas vie with one another
for popular favor.
The beauty of an early selection is in the
securing Of an exclusive style. A word to the
wise, etc.

JOB LOTT OF CORSETS
