and a most prosperous one it has been never before in the history of our business have we sold so many nice goods no doubt the reason is that many of the styles were confined exclusively to us one great advantage mr bollert will have ovei other buyers who went earlici in the season and will shortly be returning home is that he will be able to secure the very latest productions in the way of high class novelties that may be shown later in the season also broken lines that the manufacturers will be able to clear out at a reat sacrifice then our strong fimncial position in the trade and our
