Thuraday afternoon a hundred invited basinees men, arane members ofrthe learned profession, and of the press, participated in an excursion over the new Seashore Railroad to Cape May Point upon i the invitation of the President, Wm.

John Waoamaker's? Plenty of readymade dresses of ?uch sorts as are most in demand now, viz., substantial and not costly. Also plenty of white 'muslin dresses below value; and a fair variety of the more costly stuff dresses. There is no danger of overstating the advantage in buying black grenadines now. There is a clear dollar a yard to be gained in most of the rich ones. Dress-goods trade with us is now very largely upon goods below value. Checks, cneckstripes, melanges, debeige, and others, are at half and twothirds. Not all we have; we • don't mean that; some of all these and other sorts. Add ' low prices are no reflection on the goods. Whatever we buy low we sell low. Of course we 1 lose money on goods some- | times. We are not talking ; about that now.
