The Love Of Dress.

What woman is it in this broad
land of ours who does not wish to
dress we'll and look well? Search
anywhere and not one can be found
who is not pleased when she receives
at home or appears on the streets
with the knowledge that she is be-
comingly attired in a stylish and
fashionable gown and other para.
pbanelia which goes to make up
lady's whole toilet. This love OF
dress and inery seems to be second
nature with the fair sex and instead
OF seeking to smother the taste for
such things, they on the other hand
cultivate and che rish it with a devo.
ton surpassed only by their love for
children.
Everything pertaining to dress is
read by them with the great interest
and the columns of the press are
almost hourly consulted by them to
see what merchant offers the pretti
est and most stylish line of fancy
weaves and the most beautiful pat.
terms in dress goods at the greatest
bargains.
Mimnaugb, Columbia's great mer
chant prince, recognizing this failing
in the character of woman has made
unusual efforts to fill his foua i'm
mense department stores with just
the loveliest and most beautiful
stocks of goods ever seen in the
capital city of our Stete for the fall
trade. Among the stock is just such
articles as will appealed to the vanity
and good judgment Of bargain
hunters. A brilliant line of beautiful
goods has been collected and are
now temptingly arrayed. In the
millinery line it is said that he has
the grandest display of fine bonnets
and hats ever seen in Columbia. His
carpet, rug and mating department
is wonder to behold and to 60
through it makes one feel as if he was
in fairyland. He is offering some
unprecedented values in this depart
ment and those desiring to purchase
articles in this line can save money
by doing so at this house. His fall
stock of men and boys clothing
furnishings and hats is large and
complete. If you want to look hand
some in we'll fitted suit at small
outlay of capital the correct thing il
to be outitted there. In shoes
Mimnaugh has the best and cheapest
and large stock from which tc
make a selection. In his wholesale
department he carries complete
stock of dry goods, notions, shoes
and clothing, and country merchants
will find it to their interest to eoa
suit him before buying their fal
stock. Remember that Mimnaugt
leads with one of the largest, tn
prettiest and the cheapest stock o
goods in Columbia.
