THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, JUNE 15, 1897-16 PAGES. : Soatecostontoctente Infants’ Wear in the Clearance Sale== AT-= PERRY’S. Do you realize that we are in the midst of the greatest sale we have ever held at this season of the year? Yesterday's and- today’s crowds prove there are hosts of you who do. : We want everybody to join in and benefit by these reduc-- tions. It is a good time to get acquainted with the ‘Greater Store's” values if you are not already familiar with them from actual experience. Our custom of taking account of stock the last of June sends these live lines to the bargain counters. All up.and down the store you will find the special prices reigning over values that are worth every penny they were marked—but we want to sell twice as fast as commonly, and so we have cut them in halves—some of them. Yesterday’s special mention was of the opportunities that are afforded in Ladies’ Suits, Wash Dresses, Waists, etc. Don’t let another day pass without looking into that. They are small lots—but they are sterling quaitcies. Today we want to point particularly to the reductions we have made in the Infants’ Wears. Couldn't happen at a better time for you, mothers, could it? And it never happened in a better stock We have certainly accomplished much in the line of per- fection in Baby's Clothesmaking. These are all good values—all good styles—a piece here and there may be a trifle soiled—not enough to hurt—and the cut in the price more than pays for it. eteteteeeeeeeeonndgeegedvcenteteteenteteseteadbaeonoeentetetedaceteatettcenennnniodtegteteteteted the % Children’s Waists.

In their communication they say: “We heart- ily recommend that the name of Mr. Hen- ry Leonard be added to the list ef names of members of the senior class reported for honorable menticn. He took both parts of the junior examination before Prof. Cox by mistake, and, of course, Prof. Johnson had no paper from him, but it was not remembered that he had given Prof. Cox papers covering both parts of the junior examination, which he did not need to take, except to entitle him to compete for the ‘Parker prize.’ Mr. Leonard's papers were excellent, and it is but simple justice to him that he should have a place on the roll of honor of his class, especially as through the same mischance he los: the opportunity to be considered as a competi- tor for the prize.” MARRIED.
