A sensation in silk selling! A most stupendous offering. 85 pieces, consisting of hundreds of yards—of the genuine ;corded Jap- anese wash silks which were returned to an importer ;because of tardy delivery—have been secured so considerably under price that we can offer them at 19c. yard.

They are in light, me- dium and dark grounds, with heavy corded stripes and checks, in beautiful spring shades, splendidly adapted for ladies’ cool waists and children’s dresses. As they were imported to sell at 39c. and sell at 39c. everywhere the offering of them at 19c. is extraordinary. 200 ladies’ suits, $6.98—$12.50 values.
