would cost you one-quarter more.
This is the best lot of Wash Goods
that we have ever seen. just take a
look at it yourself. You will agree

dry goods is that our purchases were
all very carly. The market is much
higher than our prices.
Wash Skirts will be extremely
good. The prevailing styles make
very attractive skirts. You will find
our line not only the largest, but con-
tanning lots of styles not on the gen.
eral market to-day

new Cloths here to make these coats.

The following is an extract from
Article XIII of the constitution that
Doctor Elwang read. 1t defines the
duties of the members:
-In the event Of the occurrence Of war,
the local chapter shall act upon the sPe-

Of any great calamity abroad. II shall act
upon the instructions Of the International
