COLORED. DRESS GOODS.
SPRING, 1891.

AS one season draws TO a
close and another is about to
begin, it seems we'll nigh inn
possible that entirely novel
and artistic weaves can be pro-
duced, but the ingenuity of
the designer and the resources
of the manufacturer are always
equal to the demand placed
upon them. not only for the
creation of new fabrics, but
also for the improvement of
those which have already en-
joyed a season of popularity.
The rough effects which char
acterized so many of the win
ter textiles are reproduced,
with notifications of course,
in the New Spring Goods.
Here are some of the most ia
vored and popular weaves of
which we show complete lines.
Scotch Tweeds, English Cheviots,
Irish FREEZES, Homespuns,
Camels' Hair, Vigognes,
Serges,
Representing beautiful styles in stripes,
plaids, checks and mixtures. Some are
freely mottled with white or colored
fiecks, in many instances illuminating the
sombre neutral tinted backgrounds with
exceedingly good effect.
Among the leading plain weaves we ex-
hibit these popular makes:
Broadcloths, Hsnriettas,
India Twills, Cashmeres,
