DRY GOODS.

A fact that you are perhaps
not aware of. Do you know
that we are manufacturers OF
these goods True it is that
we have one of the largest
shirt waist factories in this
country. Our plant is in Phil
adelphia. We employ a large
force of hands and supply the
representative houses of the
country with our product.
Therefore does it not appear
reasonable that our prices must
be right and below competi-
ton ? You do not pay the
middlenan;s profit. You are
buying direct from the manu-
facturer and paying only a
small advance above first cost.
Our goods are all made over
LIVING MODELS by expert hands
and a fit is guaranteed. The
Workmanship is unexcelled. In
consequence of these facts we
are warranted in asserting that
we can sell you a waist com
pIete at the price you pay for
the material alone. Don't be-
lieve us come in and convince
yourselves.

WOMEN IN CONVENTION.
Convention Of Woman Suffragists
ut Atlanta.
BY Southern Associated Press.

ATLANTA, Ga January 3l.-The
twenty seventh annual convention of
the National American Womuu's
Suffrage Association was called to
order by Mrs. Susan Anthony mt
Deliive's Opera House this morning
ut 10 O'Clock. In her opening speech
OF salutation she EXPRESSED the
pleasure which she derived in call
ing together the first national con
ventlOn assembled south of Mason
and DiXon's line and the pleasure
TINT 1t gave her to meet the women
oil the South.
At the conclusion OF her speech
sue presented Rev. ANN Shaw to
the convention, who offered the
prayer of Invocation. She desic
mated the Almighty God as the
mother OF nll mankind aud she
prayed for wisdom and guild
nnce to properly direct the af-
inirs of the association. She cX-
pressed her gratitude and thanks
TO Providence for sparing the life of
the aged president, and for permit
ing SO many delegates 10 gather at
this annual convention. A roll of
the States was then caleb by the
recording secretary, Miss Alice Stone
Blackwell, and over thirty States
were found to be represented.
The strength of the convention
Will be considerably augmented by
later arrivals. Among representa-
tatives from the different States the
most interesting IS that from Colo
RADIO. 1t was shown by one delegate
that Colorado had three women in
her State Legislature, and that wo
man suffrage had not made women of
that State unwomanly. After the
reports of the States were read a
committee from the Woman's Chris.
tian Temperance Union was pre-
scented to the association. TO days
session was devoted to the hearing
of special reports all of which were
interesting. 4 large crowd of
spectators filled the Opera House.
At night, however, the crowd was
dense, III spite of the admission fee.
1t was quite evident to tho conven
ton that If the people OF Atlanta
were not IN favor of woman suffrage
they were Mt least glad OF an oppor-
tnnlty 10 hear the speakers.
The session was opeued with
prayer by the Jewish Rabbi. who
made iervent appeal IN behalf of
the suffrage movement. This was
followed by several addresses OF
welcome.
