that exceeds in magnitude and Importance anything OF It's
kind ever attempted in Richmond Surely statement OF
strength and significance. Following custom established
some few years ago the opening of the year is marked by
sale of Muslin Underwear and Embroderes Ehe over
whemiu superiority in magnitude, character and value
of the offerings make in these lines would alone be
enough to warrant the strongest possible announcement
but Muslin Underwear and Embrodcres not all the

been made i'll other lnes-especlaly IN Household Linens
Muslin Sheets and Pillow Cases. Muslin and White Cloths

the dominance of WHITE, which is further shown
throughout the store in other offers less extensive in guam
tity but less attractive in given values The cumua-
tive power of the entire has never been equaed
nor approached in Richmond store history The decora-
tons details and untes throughout the store will be found
entirely in keeping with both the central thought and the
practical Importance of this event The occasion offers
excellent opportunity for the comparison of Meyers efforts
with any of the limitations thereof now current
