AT THE BOSTON STORE.


An Election Day Opening OF Parasols and

The tall stalks of Easter lilies in the win

wrinkles and glitters with jet and
sparkles with Rhine stones.
The best milliners Of Paris, London and
Kew York are represented as well AS
equally successful conceptions wrought

The color combinations are exquisite In
many instances. A tiny bonnet for exanl-

equally worthy Of inspection. They are
like great flowers with their spread of
delicate hued crepe or silk, and their
hanging, lace founces and rufies. And

THE providence NEWS has struck . new
and valuable idea In the way Of newspaper
balloting. It offers TO the bona Nde wage earn.

to Europe, paying all his expenses and giving
him every possible facility to obtain informa-
ton and asking in return that he give through
its columns an honest and unparalleled state

The Offer is open to Democrat or Republican,
free trader or protsctionist, and the result Of
the fortunate explorers visit will doubtless b
q valuable contribution to the literature Of the
pending campaign.
We may add that the editor as . staunch
Republican. is not taking very serious risks
from a party stand point. 1t was just such an
