An Important
Remnant Day.

Specially interesting because of
the great variety of the assert

prices-and because the several
classes of goods offered are worthy,
and just such things as are in
broad and immediate demand.
Thus the buying opportunities af-
forded are unusually attractive.
Dress Goods Department offers
a large collie ction of useful lengths
in both wooden and cotton fabrics,
suitable for women' house dresses,
wrappers, walking suits, and rainy
day skirts, and children's frocks.
Some are reduced a half; some
more.
Every department in the house
is represented-and very low rem

Mcst Of the spectators expected an
imposing catafalque and the coffin
was almost past before they recognized
its presence by removing their hats. 1t
was a pathetically small eblong block
concealed beneath a. rich pail Of white
satin, on the corners Of which cleaned
the royal arms. Across the pail the
royal standard was draped and large
crown Of gold, encrusted with jewels
rested at the head OF the coffin, which
was at the end of the gun carriage,
just over the gun. On the foot OF the
coffin were two smaller crowns with
gold. jeweled sceptre lying between
them. The eight horses which drew
the gun carriage were almost con-
cealed beneath their rich harnesses. A
large bow OF purple was attached to
the coffin. This was the only symbol
Of mourning.
The funeral procession occupied two
hours in passing from Victoria Station
to Paddington, a distance OF three
miles
1t was precisely 1920 pm. when the
guards lining the platform a. this sta

with a solemn tread the head Of the
procession entered the building. For
half an tclr all was hushed save the
occasional clatter or horses hoofs as
the Hussars and Lancers trotted :Tlo

riages as they numbered by. Then
there was a break in the procession
and in through the archway came the
royal bier, followed by the mounted
representatives of royalty. Then came
a score or more OF attendants The
King and the German Emperor alight-
ed; the music OF the massed bands
echoed throughout the station; the
pail was removed from the coffin, and
the casket was deposited in the saloon
carriage which the Queen had so often
occupied during her life time.
King Edward, Queen Alexandra and
the Duke Of Connaught, stood grouped
together as the coffin was borne in and
then they all took seats and thet rain
started for Windsor.
