' 1IQHT HAND MARKET ST.KtlTS. PR I1.ADSI.F Hi . ' SPRING, 1883, 1 AT JOHN WANAMAKER'S. c Note. — Mr. Wanamakfjr extends an invitation to ever)' reader of Wave to visit his store whether to see or to buy. One of the pleasant things about the store is the fact that one can go all over it, either alone or with a guide, with perfect freedom, and without ever being asked to btiy a thing.

Satins of eighteen color* have j come at 81.25. Already we had • satins at 75 cents and $1 of about e the same - number of colors. I There is something very singular r ; in the colors of this season ; and 1 the singularity shows in satins , ' quite as markedly as in anything, r ' . Gros de Suez (Gros dc Lou- , | dres is the very same) is a finc- ' ; ribbed silk with a heavy rib here ' and there. The effect is rather of heavy ribs made apart upon a . flat surface. One of the new 1 silk fabrics, which seems likely r to be a favorite. In the new colors, of coyrse ; $1.35. t More-Ol the same Si. 25 black rhadame for $1. t We are' fortunate in pongee , silks. The new tariff is going to 1 [ let them down a trifle; and we j • have probably discounted the, | change. J9.50 to % 1 1 a piece of ■ 1 about 26 yards, J 1 We "sponge" pongees without ] charge, if the buyer prefers, j Sponging takes out a little of the 1 stiffness of the silk, but improves , rather than hurts the lustre ; but, j of course, the object of sponging I to make it unspottable by j

: v Wc have also" a most extensive 1 and varied collection "of pongee t t embroideries; up to $8 a yard. ■ j Handkerchiefs, unless bought ' s with great care and skill, arc liable 10 be half cotton, linen 1 ought to mean pure linen, bc- - cause cotton mixes with it sb in- !- visibly. We never had a partc cotton handkerchief in the store. | r Linen lawns ready ; all new; and » all the designs new, except dots, 1 " which can't be new, of course. f We stick to small figures, though v most merchants will have large 4 Wc stick to pare linen lawns ' too at 25 to 371-2 cenls, though ' j almost everybody else will sell ' j cotton and linen down to 1 5 ' cents. We will not sell mixed ' | cotton and linen, except at ex- 1 traordinary prices. There's a * : | good deal of satisfaction in hav- s 5 j ing things true. ^ f ' Spring dresses ready made; of c -'flannel, cloth, miscellaneous « ( ! dress-stuffs and silks, low priced ! dresses, arc ready ; down to $C \ I for the very lowest dresses, are t ' ready; down to $6 for the very r ' j lowest; and that is very similar to ^ ' j one that was much liked at the l ' | same price last year. " « j "cmuTuks!* Bnor* Yake ^

1-argc plaid cotton and wool dress-stuff, such as always costs 59 cents a yard, is here for 25 cents ; so inches wide; fifteen patterns. The colors and patterns are satisfactory ; and there's nothing whatever in the stuff to call for such a price. If we sought to get full value for everything regardless of cost, we should sell this at 50 cents. Wc Faults wet* Tmmvnra.*tre« auraore. Silk s — A n a dvcrtiscment ought to say what a salesman ought to say; but a salesman has the advantages of having his before him, and of hating topic chosen for him.
