There has not been a woman in Milford
young or old, who could resist peep into
Mrs Reedy's window. More than that they
generally stop short to gaze their fill, and
''lovely, beautiful" and exquisite" are
exclamations most frequently heard The
windows are filed with the finest fabrics OF
various sorts either of which will cause a
thrill of longing to find its home in the least
envious feminine bosom. The entire display
is marvel of taste, an instance of the exer-
else Of rarely good judgment in their selec-
tion. It is not necessary to ask you TO stop;
we will ask you to try to pass by without
stopping. The goods are ever open to in
spection, and it affords Mrs. Reedy much
pleasure-yes, very much pleasure, to dis
play the soft, downy, wooden fabrics, seem
ing impossibilities of the weaver's loom, and
then the exquisite dress silks in loveliest
shades; some the colorings of an Italian sun
set, so rich, so warm, so gorgeous.
