We'll try the experiment awhile
of giving you a little more spe
cific news about goods, Wc
know well, if we can get such
news to you promptly, that it
will be acceptable. You can
write or come.
White muslin dresses at
about three-quarters value. A
few are shown in the window
of 1 301 Chestnut, each one
marked with its price. Very
many more are within.
The materials are nainsooks,
linonsd'lnde, mullsandSwisses.
Some are very plainly made
with little or no trimming be
yond some deft handling of the
material itself; and some are
elaborate enough. The ex
treme prices are $3.50 and 60.
An excellent plain dress is sold
for 5 ; neat and well made.
Lowpriccscan almost always
be put upon such goods a little
late in the season. It's rather
early now ; but profitable mak
ing appears to be over already.
Just now you have the double
advantage of many suchdresses
to choose from and low prices.

Ready-made dresses of a
black-and-vhitc striped fabric
that looks like summer silk, but
is silk-an .1-cotton. For general
wear thy will ba found quite
food enough; better indeed
than summer-silk. Well made
and substantial ; but the chief
virtue h in the price, $10.

Black grenadines have been
one of the most distinguished
features of our trade for two
months past. We have had
the fmest in the world, and all
grades down to the poorest
that we care to keep; and a
wonderful variety of patterns.
Figured grenadines that
brought $2 lately are selling at
$1. And this may be taken as
a general indication of what we
are doing in grenadines.

An extraordinary debeige,
extraordinary in quality and
width, we are selling at 50
cents ; 47 inches. No lady who
can use debeige will be inclined
lo pass it ; for it is worth twice
the money.
J he melanges at 40 to 60
cents a'e worth a half more,
just about. There are four
qualities, and somewhere about
fifty color-effects.

If dress-goods are lower than
they were elsewhere we don't
say they arc. Advertisements
say they are; but there is a cer
tain shyness in those same ad
vertisements, which makes them
not very impressive. If dress
goods are lower elsewhere in
our city, the fall is due to the
singular spectacle here of three
great classes of the most fash-ionabledress-goodsat
a fraction
of theirvalue: French melanges,
small checks and small-check
stripes of wool and silk-and-wool,
and black lainage.
We mention these three, be
cause they stand out from the
rest of the stock, conspicuous in
two ways; they are fashionable,
peculiarly so ; and they are at
half, two-thirds or three-quarters'
value.
Third anil Jjurth elrcles, south from center.
Sash ribbon, satin-and-gros-grain,
7-inch, of value $1.15 for

to a particular sort, of which we
have three thousand yards.
Black moire, 7-inch sash, 90
cents.
Block sash at $1 we arc out
of part of the time; but we re
ceive some every morning. Do
not confound this quality with
that sold at 65 cents elsewhere.

Silk mitts, ordered from the
makers a year ago, include a

lilch havo candidates lu tho field nrc now

otirnallsU of neither party receive tho re-
ignition or reward which they deserve, u
fact for which in most part they aru to

not assist themselves for their ownlnterests

Aliuut Rose IIiihIich.
Pull your roses, or rather cut them Irom
tho stalk, us soon ns Ihcy havo reached
their full of bloom, and do not cut them too
near tho branch on which they appear.
Every full blown rose taken from the stalk
helps tho growing buds. To allow a rose
to remain and reach an overbloom, until
Its rankness causes it to drop oIT leaf by
leaf, Is withdrawing vigor from remaining
buds. Pluck or cut your roses, and enjoy
them ns personal parlor or dining room
adornments.
A Clever Trick.
A ono nnned pensioner who bus been
going the rounds of Luzerne county for
some months past, called upon n dealer In
old clothes iu Wilkes Barre, one day last
week, and told a pitiful tale to tho dealer.
lie pensioner said that lie desired to go to
Hazlcton to sec his relatives, and not hav
ing any money or clothes to go there he
pulled out u pension Toucher and said he
would pay for n suit if tho dealer in old
clothes would let him have n suit and give
him the balance. Tho clothier, thinking
that tlte U. S. pension warrant was as good
as gold, gave the man a suit and returned
Im the balance iu tolid cash. The cloth
icr sent ids voucher to W'nshlncton, Iclllnc
the pension ofitccrs lo remit forthwith.
Hut instead of gelling ids voucher cashed
written note was enclosed stating that
tho money had been paid. Tho clothier
then had tho pensioner arrested and
brought before Alderman Itooney, who
sent him to jail in default of iffiOO ball.
The pensioner was taken out of Jail on
riday on u wilt of habeas corpus and
brought before Judge Rice, who allowed
tho prisoner to go scot free on his own
recognizance. According to this ruling
the clothier will whistle a long time ere ho
els his money.

Tho Summer number of Strawbrldge &
Clothier's Quarterly Just received, furnishes
the ladies with many well-Illustrated ar.
tides ou subjects of luterest to them ; sucli
as, fashion, homo art, and domestic ecouo
my. Besides tho usual gossip on fashion
which Is supplemented later on Iu tlio book
by hundreds ot illustrations, there aro lu
structlve urtlelcs telling how things should
bo dono. "How to Shop," treats of uu art
that all ladles practice; "Dress Making"
will bo read with profit! "House Furnish'
lug" gives much practical tulviso (hat Is
worth following; nnd reasonable ''Hints
ou Bathing" are given. Iu addition to
which may bo learned, how to make dress
caps, how various articles are embroidered,
how to bu well-dressed, mid how to statu
glass. From the "C.iro of Children
knowledge may bo gained that Is of great
use in emergencies. The serio-comic "Tale
of a Trunk," Is worth listening to ; and ihu
full page of Illustrations should bo cure
fully eXHinlned so that nonool tho "points'
of the artist bo overlooked. Tlio "Kettle-
Drum Hacqult," Is an easy and melodious
pleco of instrumental music that will provo
a permanent addition to tho class to which
It belongs. Tlio frontispiece represents
pair of lovers In a lane, nnd will bu pleasant'
ly suggestive to all.

A recent Issue of the "American Agri
culturist" contains some Insinuations re
flecting upon tho character of tho Useful
Knowledge Publishing Company, or New
York. They aro insinuations only, no di
rect allegations being made. Their only
foundation is malice and fear, on the part
of tlio Agriculturist publishers. Tho
average cost of books published by The
Useful Knowledge Publishing Company,
lu proportion to their real vnluo Is less than
ono fifth of tlio average cost of the agricul
tural books published by tho Orange Jitdd
Co. Within less than threo years tho
"Literary Revolution" gave the American
people over ono million dollars' worth of
the choicest books tho country has ever
scent more In bulk nud In real valuo than
Judd lias given them for llvo million dol
lars. No class Is abused more nbomluably
by tho book publishers than tlio fanners.
I was a fanner boy before I was n publisher,
nnd know something of both sides. Twenty
five years ago I was n barefooted boy,
driving nn ox- breaking team through tlio
hnzel-brush and praric grass of Iowa, nnd
reading Grlmshaw's "England, and "New
York Tribuno" between times by the fire
light nt night, nnd I got there a little too
much of "Useful Knowledge" nnd of
strength to allow baseless slander to over
throw tlio enterprise to which I have given
my life. Judd shall realize his fear that
tho Userul Knowledge Publishing Com
wlll publish agricultural books as well as
other books, nnd It will not chargo ifl.CO
Tor n book Hint does not cost 15 cents to
mnnuracturc. In response to pressing
and almost distressing calls from all over
the country, from farmers, farmers' boys
and teachers, It will also enter the field of
school-book publishing presently, and wo
shall see what will become of tho high
prices of tho rich nnd grasping publishers
iu that Held. The Useful Knowledge Pub
llshlng Company docs what Judd, and no
other of tho old-llno publishers do, It sends
Us books to any part of United States, and
nllows privilege of examination before
payment Is required. It supplies Us agents
with copies of its clieap and beautiful
publications for distribution among their
customers, for examination nt their leisure,
and nllows tho return of any books not
wanted. Specimen pages of Us publica
tions, catalogues, nnd terms to club agents,
booksellers, and canvassers will bo sent
frco upon request. Address the Useful
