pared by Frank Mohs, Webster's pop.
ular furniture dealer, and is being dis.
tributed among the ladies of this vicin-

for floors, carpets, rugs, linoleums,
w~oodoleum and oil cloths, also a most
handsome line of curtains. Many of the
cuts are in colors and show the exact
likeness Of the goods offered for sale.
Another splendid feature is that the
prices are quoted at the bottom Of each
description and are 81 low that they
even beat the cheap department houses.
