 So far we have scarcely had over a few days of real cold weather i; and yet every fair day our cloak department is thronged. Considering the weather, trade is altogether beyond expectation. This is due to several causes easy to trace.
 Our stock surpasses every other within your reach in the variety of acceptable gar ments. In jackets, for exam pie, there's no stock here ap- preaching ours; we don't be- lieve there is any in New England outside of Boston.
 Then again, a great many styles of both wraps and capes, as we'll as jackets, appear to be nowhere else. Wait till you see them. They are charming to look at, and no doubt more charming still when worn.
 It doesn't pay to come twenty or thirty miles for ev- cry bit of shopping. But it pays when you want stylish wrap or jacket; that's certain. Second floor
 We shall tempt you Satur- day with two hundred of the prettiest trimmed hats you ever saw at $2.5o, and a hun dred at $5. Don't know whether we have enough for all day or not.

 Just received a quantity of women's fur capes at $4.5o, $5, $7.5o and $1o; but if we talk about them you'll carry off all we've got, and we can't get any more of them at any where near the prices. If you are interested in them, come quickly; if not, no difference, Archway to south store.
 Now is a good time to buy a dress of black silk-warr henrietta for prices are un- doubtedly lower than they can be expected to remain | Three numbers are selling very low-85 cents, ST and $I.I5. Samples sent, wher requested.

 Columbus day was celebrated by the schools as holiday. Some patriotic cit- izen provided the various districts with Columbus flags. Several national flags also rose in memory of the red and yellow Spanish standard that was planted upon our soil four hundred years ago. Dr. F. w. Ellis bestowed the tired, white and blue" upon the academy, from the cupola of which it was suspended in Barbara Fritchie style Friday afternoon with ap- propriate exercises. Rev. J. F. Lee of St. Patrick's church contributed a flag for the Green-st. school; cost, report says, $50. South Monson displayed the colors Friday, with Dr. G. E. Fuller to make the opening address. A wave of enthusiasm, set in motion by patriotic member of the school board, who is too modest to desire his name to be used, swept over State Line district Wednesday. Between noon and seven o'clock of that day an eagle had been matched and dispatched to Un- cle Sam. In little more than forty-eight hours from the birth of the idea the king of birds, fully fiedged and matured, look ed triumphantly down from thirty foot pelch on nine by fifteen banner floating proudly below.

 You perhaps know what an invitation of that kind means here. Tossay that it's large stock says but little. But when we tell you that the va riety and exclusiveness of the stock is surprisingly large that means more.
 We might have told you something sim- liar before, yet its meaning becomes more influential season after season.
 We say so because the growth of this department demonstrates the fact. You know that 1t is a mere chance that we can't satisfy your wants in the Dress Goods line
 In addition to the complete range of oolorings and qualities of Cashmeres, Serges and Henrietta Cloths we have
