Millinery Opening a Success.
The millinery opening at the new

in this city. Mrs. Harper had spent
quite a good deal of time in the prep¬
aration of the hats for the opening
and the showing was an elegant one.
The new millinery store is at M.

to have all those call who failed to
attend the opening.
