Was a Vory Successful Event!
jyT ANY people had been looking1 forward to its coming- and
made themselves hapjty by visiting- one of the most
elaborate displays of Dry Goods, Coats, Capes and Millinery
ever exhibited in the county. No labor had been spared in
making each department speak for itself. Style, quality and
price was back ot them all and pushed them right to the front.
Many varieties of all the newest fabrics woven were found at
our Dress Goods Department and
to unci just what they had read was going to be the style this
fall and winter, and had been wanting it so badly. Therefore
many beautiful patterns were swept from our counters, but
new goods are supplied daily. ......
.Was and is a very interesting place to those in need
of a fall or winter wrap. It is. impossible tcf de
scribe all the beautiful Capes, Coats, etc. There
are so many different styles, qualities, etc., that
your best plan is to come and see them.
