THE ACTIVITY
AMONG
NEW DRESS STUFFS
Goes to show that we have been
active in oar choosing?, active as well as
thoughtful. The richnest and beauty
of so many of oar offerings has quite
naturally misled a few into the mistaken
idea that we have none bat the very
highest priced grades higher than may
be they would Dossiblv care to Dav.
Others evidently understand our position
more clearly, as lively selling in the
following goods will prove:
Three lines of Wool Dress Fabric?, all
clean, nice, bright stuffs, varyioe in
width from 32 to 64 inche?, the patterns
being in smooth mixed effects, checks,
broken checks, stripes, mixtures and the
Scotchy looking designs, far 25, 39 and
50 cents a yard.
The most of them are Btrictly all
wool, although some of the others from
the nature of the weave have a little
cotton mingled in their make-up.
Then we also have a line of plain
every day Storm Serge Diagonals, 7
colors and a black, that we are putting
out at 39 cents a yard. Splendid values .
We have just placed on our shelves,
direct.from the manufacturer, a line of
plain serges exactly 44 inches wide,
honest measure and real value for 39
cents a yard. Id sixteen different shades
and colorings.
CARPETS. Nohandaomer, no better.
no cheaper anywhere than yon will find
right here. No matter how low the
run, or how high, our main bobby in
quality something that will suit you.
FOR BOYS' WEAR-shirts, waists.
blouses and suits. No better time to
make such things as we have received
our full lines of&oods particularly suit
able for boys' wear :
Fine cambric
Outing cloth
Percale
English percale
Striped brilliants
French cambric
Imp't'd madras
English check suiting
Figured welts
Scotch homespun
Plain col'd welts
Fancy piques
New cream silk Caps and Bonnets for
infants and Email children.
The Belt season has opered earlier
than usual because shirt waists are sell
ing earlier. Tbe display of beautiful
belts on the centre table, main flor, is
enough to make people buy whether any
thing else is selling or not. The cost is
so little.
