Having up to date this year enjoyed the finest trade in the history of our Firm, we are anxious to keep the ball in motion, and now are in it for the largest June business. We want to make this a regular red letter June for ourselves and our customers. TO RUN OFF : We offer one lot of Wash Dress Goods we have been sell ing at 12 1-2 and 15c, for 8 l-3c. This includes a great va riety of styles and patterns-most of them are the first goods offered at the commencement of the season. One lot, which has been considered as extra values for 10c, now at 6 1-4 and 7c. There is no mistake about this be ing a bargain. Seeing them is being convinced, One lot of 5c. offerings. Many of them cost us more than that, but we have had them long enough, and have put the prices at right figure to move them. We are offering many Wool Dress Goods at less than New York cost. Why do we do this ? Because it doesn't pay to carry Dress Goods over from one season to another. Goods carried over never bear a profit, and we think it best to "pock et our loss now and have the use of our money for Fall busi ness. This has been a great Millinery season with us.
