SHAMOKIN CITIZENS RELIEVED
Supposed Counterfeit Coins Are De
clared to Bo Good Money.
About a week ago the business men
and a few of the citizens of Shamokln
were startled to tlnd that the town
was being systematically flooded with
counterfeit silver dollars. Most of the
dollars alleged to be bad were dated
ISi'J, 1SS2 ond 1SS4. Those who hap
pened to hold any of the bad coins,
and there were many ,lust kept them
for souvenirs or gave them away. It
icmained for on enterprising drummer
to have, one of the coins tested at the
X'nlted Slates mint In Philadelphia.
There the coins were declared good
money.
What made the "scare" so plausible
was tho fact that that time George
Ozpatlas and C. Okonsky, two resi
dents of Shamokln. were arrested at
Somervllle, N. J., charged with coun
terfeiting. Thlr headquarters In Sha
mokln was raided and a large quanti
ty of "bad" money found. Last Sat

About Novelty
Dress Fabrics
Our Dress Goods Department has
become the Louvre of the nations.
The art weaves of the fabric world
is gathered here. After a careful
survey of the collection here, a cus
tomer remarked "that it is no longer
necessary to send to the cities" for
the highly-exclusive, highly-perfected,
carefully-picked styles in
ultra-fashionable fabrics. The tidal
reach and high-water mark in this
and that nation's loomachievements
are here, and as moderately priced
as you might expect to acquire them
in the cities. For the most part, in
but small quantities a dress robe
of a kindand representing the ul
timate efforts of the designers.
Common-place things are not ad
mitted to this collection:
Silk and Wool BrocaJed Matelasse
Crepoiis.
Plain French Poplins,
Poplins with Vertical Cord
Poplins with Polka Dots.
Plain titamlne.
Silk Stripe ntatnlne.
l:tamine with Polka Dots.
Faced Cloths in Checks.
Spring Mixtures in Imported Coverts.
Scotch Tweeds.
Silk Poplins75c
It's not often that opportunities
for acquiring high-class novelties in
Dress Silks occur so early in the
Reason. But there's an element of
hard luck for the makers in the rea
sons for this so these most stylish
of this spring's silks come to you at
two-fifths under their real value.
They are 20 inches wide and were
made to sell at $1.25 a yard. There's
no flaw in the weaving or dyeing
just a case of bad management on
the part of the makers, and we
send them forth in a half score of
new sensational shades at 7"c ft yd.
