While there is practically three months of winter weather to be expected yet, the wide-awake merchant begins early to clear his stock to make room for Spring- purchases. The old way of merchandising was to carry over from one season to another all unsold goods, and never parting with an ar ticle unless the full retail prices was received. That day Is gone by. Goods bought for the winter trade must go In the winter, and it is much better in the end that the stock should be closed out at protit or no profit, than to be at the trouble of storing it away and beginning next winter's business with old out-of-date stuff. During the Month of February we shall sell at way-down prices, Men's, Women's and Children's Clothing Blankets, Arctics, Rubbers, Carpets, and with these goods will go at Special Prices. Dry Goods, Groceries, Hardware and Housefurnishing Goods. We want it distinctly understood that when It comes to quality of goods we will not be under sold by anybody.

The effect of color upon mind is most easily noticeable in dumb animals, because they make no effort to curb or control their emotions. Wave a red flag at a bull and he becomes violently-angry. Shaka a red shawl in front of a turkey gobbler and be will storm around fearfully. I made an experiment in the country one summer to see if this same fact held true of other animal. On my farm 1 bad an enormously fat, lazy pig that disliked nothing so much as to move. All day long it used to lie asleep in the sun shine, and sometimes even the attraction of food could not budge it I took a number of pieces of silk of the same quality, but of different shades, and, after wak ing the pig, wived each strip of silk in front cf it. For the blue and green it never moved, but when I waved the red and orange strips, it jumped to its feet, stamp ed about and appeared to be thor oughly angry. Time and again I repeated this experiment and al ways with the same result Frank Alvah Parsons in Good Housekeeping. ' GREAT SALE Buggies, Spring Wagons, Farming Implements, Harness, &a, &c.
