I " > r J John Wanam^Jcer'sT : Plenty of readjmade dresses J of such sorts as are most in r demand now, viz., substantial s and not costly. ® Also plenty of white muslin dresses below value ; and a J lair variety of the more costly t stuff dresses. a There is no danger of overt stating the advantage in buying black grenadines now. There - is a clear dollar a yard to be i gained in most of the rich ones. , Dress-goods trade with us J is now very lately upon goods i below value. Checks, check- | stripes, melanges, debeige, and : others, are at half ana twothirds. Not all we have: we J don't mean that; some of all these and other sorts. And , low prices are no reflection on 5 the goods. Whatever we buy ! low we sell low. Of course we i lose money on goods some1 times. We are not talking - about that now. I Peound and third circles, southeast from cantor - 1 Cream cashmere shawls of i $5 quality, with here and there f a dark thread just visible a yard off, $3.50. India chuddas that cost five or ten times as much have such little imperfec1 tions. Imitation chuddas are | made with them purposely. Bur, as they don't belong to ; cashmeres, we sell as above. lsechcknaL 1 It is wonderful how dress- ■ goods have dropped here. ' Fine-wool and silk-and-wool things at two-thirds; some even 1 at half ; the best tilings in the

store at that Literally true! What in all dress goods is bettcr than a fine debeige ? We have one at 50 cents that is well worth a dollar. What has proved better this season titan small-check effects? Why, ' wc have thirty sorts at twothirds and below. What better than a fine melange? Twothirds ; and fifty to choose from. There is no exhausting them. Scotch ginghams of finecheck patterns, so fine as to look like plain coljffs, and even plain colors are in great favor. 25 and 30 cents. The handkerchief patterns so popular last year at 31 cents are now American ginghams thatusually sell for 15 are now 10. Figured and dotted soft mulls ji-cry low : 50 and 75 cents instead of 75 to $1.50. Everything in fine muslins and Hamburg embroideries. Belgian pillow linen and sheeting, almost white; almost as white as Irish ; and a dollar goes as far in them as a dollar- . and-a-quarter in Irish. New have just come ; and it is a good time to emphasize the advantage we always give in such ways! Indeed we consult your interest more than any other way by drawing from each country its best, and by rejecting whatever wc can get better from another source, Outer circle. Clty-haD square entrance. Honeycomb and dimity bedspreads, fi. 10 to $1.45. Finewool blankets as large and light as you like, £5 to £1 1". Colored skirts down ; poplin, stripes, chambrey, etc. The very best, except seersucker, are £1 ; seersucker not much more. One of the busiest corners in the store is that of muslin underwear. We are being rewarded for our patient pursuit of good quality in it. John Wanamaker. *"'iCn>ki snC dtj-ksll spun, IkflaMfMa.
