A little stretching, a few wrinkles, will ruin the most fashionably cut, finely tailored gown ever made. Only an expert can accurately judge the quality of a piece of dress goods by inspecting a piece of the cloth. But, when that cloth is made up into a garment, its quality quickly shows to everybody. Every piece of DRESS GOODS SOLD AT BROWN'S is guaraneeed all -silk, all -wool, or wool -and -silk, as the case may be ---its high quality shows in the long wear of the garment as well as in the beauty of the cloth.
