SPRING OPENINGS
.EVENT OF THE WEES
Exceptionally Fine Displays of Mill
ucry and Dry Goods?Gala
Day in Lanrens.
Tennyson says "in the springtime
young man's fancy lightly turns I
thoughts of love," and some one hf
said an old man thinks of fishing an
the nibbling trout when the days gro
warm; but a woman no matter of win
age thinks of new hats and new clotl
es when the spring time comes.
In evidence of this, Friday last wt
a gala day with the merchants in tl
city. The spring openings in tl
dry goods and millinery stores kei
the women busy, and a few men wt
think they are capablo of appreciatlr
a beautiful creation in straw and la<
and flowers also visited the millinei
stores.

-of everything new and attractive i
