Tr'read wjth much interest and satisfaction

Te which the following reply has been sent:
"Dear Sir:
"Your letter of encouragement in the first mail
this morning, about the Men's Sale of fine new

age.
"Even a little pat new and then en the shoulder
helps a man or even a sensible woman, when they
are doing the best they knew.
"We are keen these days te fit this Stere te the
conditions existing and te get for our constituency
eveiy advantage possible. ""
"We are net wholesalers, dear sir, nor will we
lend ourselves te help speculators get rid of piles
of shoes, clothes and stuffs they have in store.
"We are quite ready te pay cash en delivery
for such things as we can get of our class of
merchandise, that they have in storage, but the
goods must be fresh and of reliable quality, or they
will net be considered.
"Every day brings opportunities and changes
of prices here and there that are reflected in our
stocks as rapidly as possible.
"Repeating my expression of appreciation, I
