Ko one d?partaient of our store has had more painstaking thought devoted to it since its inauguration this spring than our Matting Section; It's hardly necessary, though, for us to say much about ourselves in this respect any more than we do in any other department. The things we have gathered together fer you speak for themselves. / Our mattings -are shipped direct to us from aie largest houses in China and Japan and the fruit of orn? eare and labor is at your service. It's been a very backward spring, you know, and we've been content ?with an occasional announcement of these goods, as we realized that your thoughts perhaps would not be seri? ously turned toward lighter floor coverings until the "warm week" in April was near us. Our sales, though, have been very large?exceedingly' gratifying, in fact, considering tiie lateness of the season. Now, about the prices and quali? ties. They vary, of course, like everything else. We have mattini*, as low as 12"y?-c and 15c a yard, Of course, we don't claim these mattings are as good as matting at double tbe money. That would be nonsense. They are good mattings, though, and they'll give you all the service that you can honestly expect for these figures. While we believe there are none better in Richmond at the same prices, and perhaps many not as good, we would call your attention particularly to-day to some of our better grades. Notably so, a Japanese fabric at 50c per .yard. It's of an extra superior quality, in all colors and in all the new carpet designs that Jap mattings are noted for. We make and lay it on your floor for this figure." You can't get a handsomer matting in Richmond at 50c. A good quality Jap matting In sev? eral different styles, and that is sold generally for 40c, we offer you to-day at 30c. It's also in carpet designs, with large or small patterns, in either green, red or blue. China mattings are not always as expensive as the Japanese article, as the difference in design causes a difference in price; but the China goods wear just as well?maybe, if anything, a little better. We have a fine 35c value that we offer you for 28c that will wear as long as you want it. Perfectly reversible (what an advantage that is), an extra close weave makes it heavy and firm, you see, and 20 styles in our stock to choose from. A very heavy China Matting, little lower priced than the former, we close out for 22c a yard. It's a good 28c value. Large range of patterns in small and large designs. Window Shade Section. Just a word or so about this department, started this spring. It's been a success from the start?because we have the proper shades, ikillful workmen to cut and hang them, and very^ moderate prices. We'll make you shades to order, any size or length of best oil opaque *sun last Hollands and hand made tints, mounted on Hartshorn rollers.. Drop us a postal card when you want samples or estimates. Here's a few of the good, ready-made ones : Oil Opaque Shade Cloth and good quality rollers, all colors three feet wide, two yard3 long for 50c each. Linen Shades, with frin?e and wide insertion, tan and dark green, three feet wide, six feet'long, good rollers, 50c kind for 35c. Linen Shades, well made and mounted on good rollers, all colors, three feet wide, six feet long, extra good value for 25c each. Trunks arid Travelling' Bag's.

The only store in Richmond handling the goods of this celebrated New York house. "Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall" Is the new romance by the author of "When Knighthood was in Flower." In '"Dorothy Vernon," the troubled times of Queen Elizabeth and Mary Stuart are made as real and presented as brilliantly and with as strong an emotional appeal as were the days of Mary Tudor in "When Knight? hood was in Flower." The description of the capture of Mary Stuart at the Duke of Rut? land's Castle is one of the finest pieces of word painting in any historical novel. On Sale To-day in Our Book Department, $1.08. ?
