The times. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1890-1903, 1892-10-09

perhaps YOU didn't know-that
the Cohen business was established
very nearly thirty-six years ago;
to be exact, in 1857, in a modest
little store on the north side of
the street ? Would any but the
properest of proper methods have
thus endured and led on and on
to the great store Of to-day, the
building and business being the
measure of your appreciation OF
our way of distributing merchan-
disc u? Better methods of bust
ness obtain now than then. Had
we gotten into tswe'd have been
left in the race-unworthy OF
your patronage But we move
with the housekeeping as we'll
in the forefront under the new
school Of business as under the old.
Let the store news for Monday be
a suggestion Of our present accom-
plishments. Grand retailing, this.
The Millinery opening was a
success. The Partisan and New
York styles were never SO lavishly
transferred to our show rooms.
But many were unable to come
during the advertised days. We
have treat for those and for the
ones who saw the other as we'll.
On Tuesday and Wednesday we
will have completed grand dis
play of demi-season Walking
Hats, stylish every one Of them
prices S. to So. The Partisan dis
play will be almost as good as be-
| fore-the whole effect better
The fillgrees and furbeIows OF
Millinery were never SO handsome
and numerous here. Look at
them, too.
The increased CARPET organ
ization Is at Its best for the weeks
selling and laying.
Silks and Wooden Dress Goods
will vie for first place in your eye
this week. Along with the scores
of novelties that specially-made
Lyons Black at 92c holds its own.
We stand between you and fraud
in Silk buying; we look out for the
dye-weighting and overslzing-
29c to SO a yard the price gamut.
In Woolens and Mixtures would
we could describe the beauties and
let your minds eye feast on the
offerings as you drank in the
printed line ard canned The prices!
It's useless to try. Our best is
eclipsed in the buying; your most
sanguine hopes Of dress, beauty
and economy shall be satisfied in
our selling.
You trust your merchant in
other things than Silks and Fash
ions. Take UNDERWEAR. How
do you know it until you've worn
and washed it, and then you may
wish you had never CHANGED it.
You take no chances here. BY
measuring our possibilities rather
than our trade we made it possible
to control the making of several
lines to our notion and the prices
all through the stock. We
have removed the chances. Only
certain goodness here. These items
