HALF PRICE OR LESS
ON WINTER CLOAKS.

We have still quite fair stock
left of Ladies Jackets and Capes
and rather a large stock of
Misses and Children's Cloaks.
Half or even only a third of the
former prices is about what we
are selling them for now. For
instance, fully three-quarters of
all our Ladies' Jackets are now
$500 or less.
We don't see why economical
people should not take advantage
quickly OF our misfortune. 1t is
a misfortune for us to have
CIoaks on hand now. The Cioaks
do us no good---we can't wear
them. On the other hand, you
can each OIL you wear one for two
or three months yet, to say Moth

little money you pay US we can
use to buy Spring goods with.

The vessel was unable to utilize her
steam pump in the rough sea. Capt. Lee
sailed from Nantasket Roads Sunday
morning, January 80, and was seen off
Eastern Point at 2 o'clock that after
noon. The wind was dead ahead and
the vessel was making little progress.
This is the last heard of the craft, and it
is believed that in the storm which broke
on Monday the vessel filled from the
leak in her stern post and foundered
with all on board.

A WORD ABOUT
THE NEW WRAPPERS.

We admit the criticism many
of you make at times that "the
Wrappers are homely." Late in
a season it is likely that constant
selection from our stock of the
prettiest ones leaves us with some
that are actually "homely." Not
so now, Our shelves are filled
with a new stock in the new
Spring styles and colorings at all
prices from 89c TO S2.25, Now
is the best possible time to buy
new Wrapper because you have
such large variety from which
to select, and SO can surely suit
yourself.
One particularly good feature
abour our Wrappers is that the
Skirts are extra full. They have
other good points.

The Surprise of All.

Mr.. James Jones, of the drug firm of
Jones & Son, Cowden, ILL.,, in speaking
of DR.. Kings New Discovery, says that
last winter his wife was attacked with
La Grippe, and her case grew SO serious
that physicians at Cowden and Pana
could do nothing for her. 1t seemed to
develop into hasty consumption. Having
DR.. Kings New Discovery IN store, and sell
to the surprise of all she began to get
better from first dose, and half dozen
dollar bottles cured her sound and well.
DR.. Kings New Discovery for Consump-
tion, Coughs and Colds is guaranteed to
do this good work. Try it. Free trial
bottles at HIP. S. Goold's Drug store.

FURNITURE OF THE JOHNSON
IDENTIFIED.

The almost positive Identification of
some of the ships furniture picked up
off Cape Ann by former captain of the
johnson seems to confirm the belief of
the vessels loss. The schooner was
sighted off Minot's Light on January 26.
She was laboring heavily, with the sea
making complete breach over her. A
flag in the rigging attracted attention.
Capt. Lee wanted to be towed into Nan
tasket Roads, to remain there until the
weather should moderate. The tug
towed the schooner to safe anchorage.

Of Increasing activity in the iron market at ad-
vancing prices. principally for structural iron.
Sales OF pig iron are unusually heavy. particu-
larly at the South. The number Of people en-
ployed has been increased by the resumption
OF work in tho large Western glass manufacture
ing concerns. At the same time IL Is to DO noted
that the reduction in wages at Now England cot
ton mills, made necessary by the extraordinarily
low price OF cotton. has been almost generally
accepted. and slightly lower prices for cot
ton goods appear TO have stimulated the
demand for them. Exports OF wheat and other
breadstuffs have fallen on somewhat, but the

The trading In cotton to-day was dull and devoid of
new or interesting features. A firmer market in Liv.
erpool. with a good demand there for spot cotton at
higher quotations, was reflected In q trifiing advance
here at the opening. After the initial dealings prices
nuctuated within an extremely narrow range and at
the close they were unchanged from the opening
figures. The receipts at the ports were moderate,
and the total for the week showed q decrease as
compared with last week. while the exports from the
ports were heavy, exceeding the days receipts by
nearly 10000 bales; The total interior, receipts
for the week were larger than last week. hut the
%hipment also exceeded last weeks. and the total
interior stock showed a decrease for the week. Mr..
Hester of New Orleans makes the quantity brought
into sight during the week 8i3,45s bales. against
