friend, "why did you betray the lecret that wai
told you V "Is it betruytu' that you call it ? Sure,
when I found I wasn't able to keep it myself, didn't
I do well to toll it to somebody that could ?" Some

fact that S. Faust, the fashionable Hatter, is manu
facturing and selling goods very fast aud very
cheap, ut his store, on Market Square.
