springneld, September, 1ssS. New Silks For Fall.

Spread out on the counters, or nestling in reserve on the shelves out of the way of the dust, is a dazzling array of new fall silk beauty. Conjure up the brightest, most fasci- mating, strikingest silk tho'ghts that ever you had, and then come to see them totally eclipsed with what we have ready. Safe to say that such another galaxy of superb fall silks cannot be seen in this neighborhood.
 Look at a few of them on paper:
 Taffeta: Ombre striped patterns, beauty
 shifting into more beauty, $1 a yard. Taffeta Checked pattern, brightness
 upon brightness, 75c., S5c., $1 a yard. Taffeta: Striped patterns and nar-
 row, new blues, new greens, new reds,
 S5c, $1 a yard.
 Taffeta: Brocaded and checked pattern,
 all the pretty combinations-59cp per yd
 ought to be 75c.
 Taffeta: Striped patterns all the new
 fall colors-black with green; with
 blue; with purple; green with white
 69c-ought to be S71c or $1. Taffeta: Swell pattern-narrow close
 stripes with diagonal checks, soft aristo-
 cratic fall colorings-75c per yard in-
 stead of $1.
 Taffeta: Bayadere-rich, new, striking
 only $1 per yard.
 Taffeta: Stripes, checks, with Pekin satin stripes in contrasting colors, $1 $1.25.
 Taffeta: Every new fall color-they are to be much sought after-75c per yard Satin Duchess: Plain colors- Hunters green, Bishops purple, Poppy red
 Moss green, Corn, White Cream, Browr
 $1 per yard.
 The word ExCLUsIF should be applied to almost every style mentioned above, fol they are to be found in this vicinity in this store only and even here in single o1 double waist lengths only. What will surprise every woman most is that the price: of these fine things are SC reasonable.
 The story of silks shouldn' be concluded without a worc of the new black silks. IT brief then: Here is the full est stock of black dress silk: for fall to be found in the city prices right.
