Ladies will have an opportunity, this, week of seeing a fine display pi new millinery in one ol Penrose's windows. Since their show day., many new desiens have arrived, and this firm is fawn*" tho opportunity of placing' them on view tor-public inspection. An immense amount oi trouble has been taken in the gathcrine tocher of this season's millinery. Our duty has been .to avoid the styles our contemporary may show, and at the same timo be a leader in correct style. We do not think our hats arc duplicated anywhere. Wo believe every model hat .show* is an exclusive design, and the exhibition on the whole a most interesting one to ladies. A feature of this seasons millinery ia |ho very smart ready-to-wearlat; can be sold, at 15s and 1? i M each. , These hats are very popular, and will be- scarce enough lent before the season is halt oyer Well it all comes'to this, that alter all Penrose's is the best place for millinery.-PENROSE'S « Drapery Establishment.
