One of the pleasant tilings 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 buy a thing.

Satins of eighteen colors have come at $ Uf. Already we had, ar satins at 75 cents and $1 of about cr the same number of. colors. >• is something very singular in the colors of this season l and . . - 1 . w the singularity shows in sauns ^ quite as markedly as in anything. ^ I Gros dc Suez (_Gros dc Lon- c I drcs is the very same") is a tine- v ribbed silk with a heavy rib here c i j and there. The effect is rather I ! | of heavy ribs made apart upon a a ^ I flat surface. One of the new v ■ silk fabrics, which seems likely \ 1 tq be a favorite.

Wc wile not sell mixed cotton and linen, except at extraordinary prices. There s a : good deal of satisfaction, in hav1 ing things true. Spring -dresses ready made, of j fl a 11 u.o 1. -cloth, ^Miscellaneous ; dress-stuffs *and silks, low priced j dresses, are ready ; down to 56 for the very lowest dresses, arc | ready; down lo 86 for the very ' lowest ; and that is very similar to ' one that was much liked at the same price last year. 1

Large plaid cotton and wool dress-stuff, such as always oasis 59 cents a yard, is here for 25 "cents ; so inches wide; fifteen patterns. The colors and patterns are satisfactory ; and there's I nothing whatever in the stuff to I call for such a price. If wc sought to gel full value for every- ! thing regardless of cost, »c j Should sell this at 50 cents.
