Apology
o
We regret our supply of stools,
I advertised for 3-Hour Sale, was not
sufficient to supply the great de
mand. We had only 750, which lasted
but one Hour, instead or tne tnree ad
vertised. We will try to make repara
tion, and have ordered a double quanti
ty, which we will advertise upon re
ceipt and sell at same low price.
Very respectfully,
