The Boston Dry Goods Store,
Our. Main and Wall 813., Norwalk.
In our announcement each week we aim to present simply the actual
facts. Facts about dry goods are always of interest, and we try to make it
not only interesting, but profitable to read'them. When you are too busy
to call in person, it is always perfectly safe to send a messenger. Remem-
ber that no transaction with us is ever finally concluded until you are
pleased. We cannot afford to haie a single customer dissatisfied. Our
rule is : Money refunded and goods taken back if not satisfactory. Faniples
whenever you write for them.
DRESS. GOODS.
The new “BEDFORD CORDS,” over which you have been so
enthusmstic, and which have been selling as fast as anything in the store,
will be marked down to-day.
We take twenty pieces of the $1.15 quality and mark it 95 cents.
If you really care anything for a dress of this beautiful material, you
cannot afford to miss this sale. This lot contains all the new spring shades
and black If you miss this chance, remember, it may not occur again
this season.
Black Grenadines.
This is the sort of weather to set you thinking
of them—and of all the spider webby weaves.
Only a few makers have the wit to do a Grenadine
as it should be done—so it won’t slip. A mean
We look toit that the
sleasy, slippery sorts are shut out.
Grenadine is mean indeed.
All Silk Grenadines in exclusive designs, open
mesh twisted silk, lace, satin striped, plain, polka
dots, chiffon stripe, graduated, plaids and figures
in almost endless variety, including the highest
productions of the Lyons looms. Prices range
from 59 cents to $1.50 per yard.
Cotton Dress Goods.
Did you ever see such Dress Goods? The
silky look is as distinct on some of our French
Prints as if the fibre actually came from cOcoons.
It seems as if the limit of possibility in spinning,
weaving, printing and finishing cotton had been
reached in these exquisite stuffs, and 12.} cents
the yard price—$1 25 for a dress length fit for a
' queen’s reception. The lovely

. .o ' as only the Scotch can make them, they make
friends of nearly every acquaintance. Those 40-cent Ginghams for 25 cents
speak for themselves. Their story is known all over town. There was a
tremendous big lot to begin with, but at this rate the end will come before
you expect.
M ILLINERY .
Beautiful creations, original and taking designs, combined with low
prices, are winning merits and the approval of hundreds. Every afternoon
our Millinery Parlors are crowded with an admiring and appreciative
throng. Many are surprised at the elegant, quiet and select patterns we
are selling so low. All are delighted and many are made happy in
possessmu.

PARASOLS.
It took a stroke of genius to invent the Paras
sol—probably a. sunstroke—since which time the
Parasol has always stood between genius and sun—
’stroke. You shOuld employ its aid now for
beauty’s sake, just as much as beneath the July
, sun for health’s sake. At all events you should
make your selection now, regardless of immediate
needs, in order to avail of our large assortment.
“Most carefully selected,” just expresses it. The
reason our Parasol trade is so large is wholly or
result of our care in selecting only the choicest
- and most attractive patterns, which we then
exclusively control for the Norwalk market. -
Carriage and Coaching shades in great variety. All the
including the New Rufiied Styles.
Handles of Imported Wood, both Natural and Polished.
Mourning Goods in all the better grades are represented by a large
assortment of styles, at prices ranging from 7‘3 cents to $5.00. ’
