thing but spring-like or inviting,
yet such were the attractions offer
ed that Mrs. Williamsop's Spring
Opening last evening brought to-
gethera largeer assemblage of ladies
than ever met in one store in this
city at any one time. 1t had been
generally known that this display
of new seasons goods would be ex-
ceptionally fine. but the anticipa-
lions fell far short of the realiza-
ton. The stock of bonnets, rib
bons, hats and millinery and the
thousand and one other articles SO
dear to the feminine mind and
incidentally SO dear also to the
masculine purse, proved to be
something unapproached hereto

beauty fairly captivated all who
examined them. The opening win
continue to-day and this evening,
and no one should fail to visit Mrs.
Williamson's always attractive
store under such especially favora-
BILE conditions.
