we felt sure that there would be a
heavy duty placed upon foreign
dress goods and we at once set
about to place our contracts for our
fall and winter supply OF foreign
and domestic dress fabrics, and this
result is that we today own line
ofladies' fine dress goods from Is
to 2Gc. cheaper than our competors
and we propose to give our patrons
the benefit of our good buying. We
also wish to announce to the ladies
that we have secured some good
bargains in ribbons and millinery
goods; so doz. ladies sailor hats for
fall and winter, from Is to 75c each.
These hats are in all shapes and
styles black straws and felts. We
also wish our lady friends to know
that we have in the best equipped
millinery department la this part
of the 81 ate, aud during the busy
season we keep from two to three
ladies busy in our ware rooms.
Ladies We want your trade in dry
goods and millinery and if you visit
our market this fall we feel sure
you will be pleased with our goods
and the price we ask for them, We
carry a large line of Marsailes bed
