HO BOtVLES
Beg t rn thanks to
the vast` dumber of their
friends and customers
who turned out in such
force on Thursday even-
ing on the occasion of
their Millinery Open-
ing.
For curiosity's sake
we placed a young man
at the do or, with in-
struct io nn ... to count
-r,.
every one7t Who entered.
and to our intense satis-
faction we received by
actual count no less
than
TWELVE IRINDRED ` 0 AND
FIFTY-THREE VISITORS.
This large attendance at
our initial Millinery
Opening cannot be look-
ed upon, other than as
extremely °gratifying to
us, and we are fully
appreciative of the fact.
Of course it could not
be expected with such
a crowd that .MISS
SIMPSON could attend
properly to each visitor,
but we hope our cus-
tomers and friends will
be pleased with what
they were able to see
and will favor us with a
call later on, when Miss
Simpson will be pleased
p
to see them and . give
their particular wants
