The Remnants" Report from the several
departments are most interesting. Our rem
nants are not allowed to remain unsold long
enough to become undesirable. They are
mostly what is left of sessonable merchandise.
We reduce the prices soley to prevent
them accumulating and cloSging the stock.
The goods are not damaged; being short
lengths" Every large or very small sizes"
'broken lines" odd lots" &C.; they come un-
der the head Of Remnants" and everything
Of that character is given price that will sell
it Immediately. Whenever goods are imper-
feet, suiled, Clipped, or otherwise damaged,
we tell you SO. There never was time,
perhaps when q little money would 60 so far
in buying as now. Dress Goods (black and
colored) merit more than ordinary attention,
Many useful lengths Of this seasons best fab
RIGS will be on sale-and they were never
marked so low.
