THE MARQUAND MANSION.

Luxury and Elegance of the Finest

A man who knows said TO me the other

THERE was a reunion of the descendants
of David Rittenbouse In Philadelphia on
Tuesday. He was giant In iHtellect. In
his boyhood the manufacture of wooden
clocks and toy machinery was his favorite
amusement, and at the age Of eighteen he
made his own telescope, timepiece and tran
oil, and at twenty seven took the third obser-
vation OF the transit of Venus In the history
of science. He contrived the "orrery,"
which initiated the movements OF the
celestial bodies for period Of 5000
years. IL was purchased by Prince
ton college. His passion for mathe
mates was so great that his father
could do nothing with him on the farm, as
he would pause in his blowing to carry on
absti use calculations on tho fence rails.
He was therefore allowed TO take up clock
making and nearly worked himself to
death at the business, rating his clocks by
astronomical observations. Yet this great
genius distinguished himself in one way
that may easily be initiated by ordinary
mortals. Ho might have made a good
speculation by investing in state bonds at
one time, but refused because ho was state
treasurer aud did not think it honorable To
make personal u Sc Of his official advan.
tages.

Our advertising Pegasus has
been foaming at the bit and
paving the ground with eager
impatience to bear away the
story of the Brandenburg
Cloth. We dare not let him
off before, but now with the
wings Of type and the feet feet
of steam the news may fly.
Brandenburg Cloth Why
Brandenburg? No reason why
save that the Brandenburg
arms make brilliant trade
mark and Brandenburg is a
great, strong name.
The cloth is cotton. Such
cotton Shades Of Moses on
the Nile did you ever see bet
ter ? Egypt or South Carolina
cotton we know not which, nor
care we. SO strong, SO close the
thread. You might almost call
it linen, the yarns are SO clean
and smooth. The printing is
exquisite. Who dares to chal-
lenge the imagination Of Phila-
delphia when such Cotton

in all the world more complete

auqHs SSq2am2pleteness, :,
ind it at the C~..~- re-.
Goods counter (west). hard bv
the Japanese canopy. Quite
fitting. You have already
heard some Oriental talk about
American Cotton Dress Goods.
Ear fetched when applied to
some of the dull stuffs that are
shown with names from the far
East. Quite natural such a
title for this instead of Bran
denburg. Your fancy would
almost say the stuffs at single
leap bounded from the Japanese
house to the counter where you
find them.
Examine the goods. The
colors fairly sparkle, and you
think at once of France and
China, of Foulards and Shane-
hais. Comparisons are odious
or otherwise, according to the
point of view. But a compari-
son of this with any fairly COM
peting cloth must be odious-
for the other cloth.
The width is 80 inches full,
the price 20 cents. Compare
the count of threads, this shows
20 per cent. finer; compare
the strength, this gives 80 per
cent. more strength ; compare
colors and design-there is no
comparison, the Brandenbure
is beyond and above it. Sheer
as a batiste, solid as a drill,
light as zephyr, strong almost
as leather. The Brandenbure
fills royal place in cottons and
is born to rule.
This is the first public intro
duction of the Brandenburg.
We have been most anxious to
bring it out, but the unsought
demand has been carrying it
off fast as it came, and we had
to wait for quantity and assort-
ment to accumulate. We never
invite you to feeble and meagre
lots.
