| Bv Special Appointment

SPECIALLY SELECTED DRESS FABRICS, 



Which, are the very best and in the latest fashion. 



They include Selections (only) of all-Wool, and Mixed English, Scotch, Irish, French, German 



and other Continental fabrics, from 5d. per yard single, and Is. 9M. per yard double width, to 



the very best qualities made. Also Selections in Silks ( warranted to wear 



well). Satins, Poplins, Velvets, Velveteens, Plushes, &c, at such prices as 



cannot fail to secure Patrons. 



LALIES **• ^ a9 Deen remarked, usually find a considerable amount of difficulty in making 



' a selection from a large parcel of patterns, and are confused and puzzled by 



the multiplicity of the materials submitted for inspection. We profess to have reduced i his 



difficulty to a minimum, and our patterns of English, Scotch, Irish. French, German, and other 



Continental dress fabrics, are so carefully chosen and such taste Is shown In their 



selection, that we believe no intending purchaser can find the slightest difficulty in making 

 up her mind, for she will find exactly what she wants ready to her hand. Thus time and trouble 

 are saved by our method, which, ihe fashion journals say, " can not be too highly recom- 

 mended." Indeed, the success which has attended the sale of our ''selections" has now become 

 so generally appreciated that many Ladies prefer to send direct to Belfast, thereby saving very 

 considerably in price, while securing the very latest Novelties. Patterns, Post-free.
