Fry of Shawance, Tenn., dated September 22, 1895, says: “I write to tell you of the benefit I received from taking Ripans Tabules. In 1803—in May, I belleve—my stomach got fm such a fix I could not digest my victuals at all; everything I ate I threw ap, with great pains in my chest and bowels. T tried several doctors, all of which done me no good. At last, after spending about $75, a friend advised me to try Ripans Tabules. I went three miles to # drug store, but tMfey had none. I inquired where I could get them. The druggist told me I could get them from Chapman, White, Lyons & Co., of Knoxville, Tenn. I sent and got $2 worth and commenced taking according to directions. After taking the entire lot I could eat anything, in fact, I always was a ‘big eater,’ and the way I did eat was enough to shock a person, and I had the satisfaction to know that what I ate ‘would stay with me.’ Iam grateful te you for making such a medicine, and I hope before many days elapse you may have the power to place it in the house of every family in, this United States.”* st'tle price GO vents a bos) is seat te” ‘he haps Chemical Company, No. 10 Spruce ut., New Sample vial, 10 cents, King’s Palace, 812-814 Seventh St. 715 Market Space. 9% E ST.

And since early morning the demand for them has kept several extra salespeople busy. . It seems that the manufacturers made too much—the market got “clogged up” and a “trade sale” was absolutely necessary. The qualities are the best. We did not get a single questionable one in all we purchased. We are sharp silk buyers—knowing that nothing is poorer than poor silk—nothing is more detestable. The prices which we quote are a third less than such silks are usually sold. In many instances we have the same silks in our regular stock priced at a third more than we're asking for these. Thus you get an idea of the remarkably low prices. Black brocade satins—those fash- ionable ones, with large pretty de: signs, which sell for $1 a yard and more, for = 69 cents. Finer and heavier quality of black brocade satins—with prettier and larger figures—the quality which you positively cannot buy for less than $1.35—will go at 89 cents. 24-inch silk selisia, black and white—cannot be had for less than 50c. a yard anywhere—for 39 cents. 21-inch changeable and_ black gloria silk—for new fall waists and linings—variety of light and dark effects—the usual 39¢. quality—for 1g cents. Th street annex. From that big sale of the Arling- ton Mills productions we got a case of figured mohairs in the newest pat- terns. They shall go at 25c. a yard, though we have them in. stock at 35¢., and they’re very cheap at that. Also plain black silk finish hen- rietta—46 inches wide, which we can sell for 59c. It’s the dollar quality 200 pieces plain colored all-wool serges and henriettas—black, gar- net, navy, green, gray—at 25c. a yard. Such an offering is really un- precedented.

We can’t help saying just a word each day about our new Boys’ Cloth- ing Department and the unusual values the clothing man has worked so hard to bring you. He has the right idea of what boys’ clothing ought to be, and he’s got the right sort. Today’s news appeals to the thou- sand careful mothers who want their boys dressed with absolute good taste.

Mr. Batley, the manager in this city for Garbage Contractor Warfield, was inter- viewed today by a Star reporter upon the matter of the slleged dumping of garbago into the river opposite Alexandria and other points on the river. “Not a pouad of garbage is dumped into the river from our scows,” said Mr. Bailey. “I can make this assertion with the utmost cerfidence, and it will be borne out by the testimony of Mr. Taylor, who has charge of towing the scows down the river. The greater part of the garbage transported out of the city by scows has been turned over to Mr. A. W. Kintz, who Ives on the Maryland shore nearly opposite Alexan- dria. We made an arrangement with Mr. Kintz early in the season to deliver to him, free of charge, the garbage which we can- not cremate. He was to unload the scows at his own experse. I understand that his profit in. the transaction eame from selling the gerbage to farmers in the neighbor- hco@ for fertilizing purposes. When Mr. Kintz had more garbage than he could di bose of we gave it to other farmers along the river. Up to the Ist of September we hever got a cent out of this garbage. From this time on we will charge’ the farmers probably fcur or five dollars a load for it lecause it is richer in fertilizing matert in the fall and winter than in the summer. Alno Denies, Mr. A. W. Kintz was also seen et Mr. Bailey's office today. He had come to the city from his farm to talk to Mr. Bailey about the alleged dumping of material into the river. In conversation with a Star re- porter Mr. Kintz said: “Mr. Bailey's statement of my connection with the disposition of the garbage is cor- rect. I have been receiving it on my farm this summer, but have not made anything out of it, except the benefit which I will receive ing it as fertilizing material on my own premises. In order to get this benefit 1 agreed to take the whole output. I thought I could sell tt to my neigh! wi would be very glad to get it. The » which I have received for it ) per scow load.
