Two Ladies Met
At the Silk Counter

One had just selected a pat
tern of our prettiest grenadine.
Her friend exclaimed:
Its beautiful, but why are
you buving it now? 1t will be
month before you'll be able to
wear it"
''Because / admire it and I
know I'll want one later, and
then I'll have one l like"
Much logic in that answer,
and we want to show you some
of the same new grenadines that
elected it.
Every one knows by this time
that for real elegance and style
nothing surpasses a handsome
grenadine. There are yards and
yards of this filmy daintiness in
stock now-Sty1es that are here
at first hands, patterns that have
but one profit between you and
the manufacturer. That is
something, and the greater va
riety now obtainable should at
least invite an early inspection.
Economy seekers will be spe-
cially interested in several styles
of pure silk French tissue Gren-
adines at S1.5O a yard. They
are AZ inches wide and of very
dainty texture. At the same
price are lot of Scotch Plaids
that are very hobby. Some
beauties in French tissue with
wide silk stripes are selling at
81, while one assortment of less
elegance is ~ inches wide and
but $1.OO a yard.
The Mexican mesh effects in
two-color combinations are very
attractive and are highly
priced.
The single pattern lengths, of
! which one dress only of a de-
sign is shown, range in price
between $3.50 and $37. so.
Some of these in the "careaux"
! effects will be hard to duplicate
later, and appreciation of their
beauty is increased by the
knowledge that they are even
now scarcely to be obtained

CHICAGO MARKET
Prices and Prospects of the Trade in
Cereals

CHICAGO, March 3O.-Wheat displayed
some strength at the start, and for about
an hour after there was quite good de-
mand from shorts and not little general
buying. Following the extreme weakness
of yesterdays market here, Liverpool
showed surprising strength. 1t was said
that farmers had even sold their seed
wheat. These were the factors in the
opening strength, starting July Ssc higher
at S212MS2ss. For a few moments the mar
ket displayed nervousness, selling between
S234 and S2asGtS21a; then the sharp advance
which was taking place in Wall street
stocks and more quieting reports as to the
Cuban situation lent additional strength
to the market and started a quiet Buying
movement which carried the price up to
s2%. Here the market again sagged under
realizing by scalperS and some of the first
buyers, but the decline was limited to
about sc. For more than an hour the
market continued nervously within Il mar
row range, under the operations of the
scalpers. About the noon hour the con-
tinued strength of Wall street and rumors
Of impending cabinet changes stiffened the
backbone of the wheat holders and result
ed in an advance in the price to 83k Clos
ng prices at Liverpool and Paris showed
substantial advances. May wheat was lit
tie heard of. 1t sold at 1.03 shortly after
and remained at that figure until near the
close. Some July buying by Letter cut
no small figure in the advance in that fu-
ture to S31s, though it was not on a large
scale. The market held firm at around
that price until the last half hour, when
realizing came. A decline to SIS was the
result. The close was at S2QIS2h. May
closed at 1.03ai
Corn was quiet and steady and May
closed shade higher.
Oats were very quiet, business being
mostly of u scalping nature. May closed
&c higher.
Provisions were strong early but heavy
realizing did away with most of the ad-
vances. The close was steady. May pork
was unchanged and May lard and ribs each
2hc higher.
