A large embroidery order was offered at 4,150 yards of fabrics, signaling a sensational sale of real merit. The vast stock, stored for a town of this size, was quickly snapped up by shoppers. Arrivals are due by week’s end with goods ready at 7 o'clock Monday morning unless railroad delays intervene.
The dry goods department devotes nearly all space to an embroidery carnival featuring edges from tiny to large. Hamburg cambric mull swiss and nainsook fabrics display matched sets with elaborate insertions. Prices are advertised as an unprecedented chance to buy multiple pieces at once.
New stock of all over laces arrives with a prettier line than earlier in the season. Prices vary by yard from 50 cents to 1 dollar fifty, including 65 and 75 cent options and a 1 dollar range.
