Linen Towels.

In addition TO the astonishing bar
gains in Linen Towels we have al
ready called your attention TO at %
cents and so cents each, we will put
on sale this morning 100 dozen
Huckabuck Towels at i2t cents each.
These run sizes tOX}O inches, 1898
and 2Ox3S, and We are confident they
were never sold at a less price than
above quoted.
The offering to-day of fine linen
towels at 25 cents each are many of
them surprising. These, with those
al 50 cents each, are the balance OF
the large LOT closed from an importer
to clear up certain lines. Our linen
DamaSk, Napkins and Towels, are
practically owned and sold at old
prices, while the new schedule is very
much higher, in fact several of our
best numbers would cost more on the
market to-day than we ale selling
them for over our counter.
