ONE SPECIAL FACT
Wo wish to call the attention

country and Europe , oftentimes
at a fearless loss to them. We
have a resident buyer in New
York who visits European mar
kets twice a year , with full power
from us to close out any desira
ble lots of goods suited to our
trade. The advantage we thus
hold to constantly place before
, the public the most unaccounta
ble bargains in all classes of Dry
Goods is very clear.
