While it has heretofore been our custom to offer an exceptional range of goods, with many unusual values, we are prepared this year to surpass all our former efforts, by reason of many specially advantageous purchases which we have recently made for this particular sale. We invite the attention, not only of all housekeepers who wish to supply their private wants, but the interest of all large users of Linens— proprietors of hotels, boarding houses, restaurants, and of all establishments where Linens of any kind are largely in use.
