07 21 The New Skirt
R. & H. S. Howell have just received
from the manufactures, J. I. & O. J. West of New York, the new Duplex
Elliptic Spring Skirt, which is now everywhere preferred to all others. It is well made, strong and serviceable, but
at the same time light and graceful and so elastic and flexible that it yields
to the least pressure without spreading in all directions and assuming all
kinds of awkward shapes. It encircles
the form symmetrically, readily contracts into a narrow space, and can be managed
with the utmost ease and convenience. It
combines all the latest improvements, is manufactured of the best material, and
will doubtless be adopted by the ladies as the fashionable and favorite skirt. WD
09 08 R.
& H. S. Howell, west side of the river, have now on hand the largest
general stock of merchandize ever offered in this city at wholesale and retail.
