THE receiving room has been a veritable kaleidoscope of ne Fall styles and merchandise the
last few weeks. With the return of most of our corps of buyers from the Eastern and Euro
pean markets, have come the fruits of their labors by nearly every express and freight. - -
Autumn styles have not been prettier in years, yet they are the most practical. More emphatic
than ever will be the vogue for Tailored Suits. The Coats are picturesque, with their big revers,
immense collars and all-enveloping lines. .
