If we could foresee what kind of goods and what kind of patterns, whether large or small, were going to be worn each season, our for tune would be made, but as it is, there is no telling, and this fact alone puts some things up and some things at half-value, for instance: French Linen Lawns at the beginning of the season looked lovely, and at 25c we anticipated a good demand and bought quite heavily, the figures were beautiful, being from medium to large, and the quality was of the best, but alas! White Goods and small figures became the fash ion, hence we offer 25c French Linen Lawns at 1 2 c per yard. Everybody is not fashion able, and some don't object to large figures. llOlllCNtlCN.
