We have been .busy ever since closing last Monday, listing and packing the
balance of stock for shipment to Peterboro. As this work has been going on, we have
come across many lines we simply cannot take with us. There is a short length of
this, an odd pair of that, and ones and twos of something else, broken lines and odd
lots that we would much rather sell than take with us. All these we have gathered
together and they will be arranged on the counters and tables on the ground floor for
a clean -sweep on Saturday.
Remember, we are not advertising to sell general lines, but simply to clean up
everything that for any reason whatever we do not wish to take with us. We will
make the prices so low that the store should be empty when closing time comes on
Saturday night.
Nothing to be sold but Odds, Ends and Remnants.
Everything for sale will be on the ground floor.
Nothing up -stairs or in the basement.
Here is a partial list of what we will have to sell:
Odd lines of Hosiery and Gloves. 1 Every pair a bargain.
Remnants of Silks, Remnants of Dress Goods, Remnants of Oilcloths,
in fact every Remnant in the store will be on big tables
Saturday for quick selling.
Oad Blinds, Odd Waists, OlidikUnclerweaY, five children s Raincapes, four
ladies' Raincoats,Qfour children's Coats, four misses' Coats,
five Suits, three -Verandah Rugs, one Union Rug.
Eight or ten Tables varying in size from 1 I -2x2 1-2 ft. to Work Tables 8 and 10 ft. long.
Madras Curtains from our show -room windows.
Cotton Covers which we use for putting over goods at night. These are made from
{-.good quality factory cottons but are badly'soiled. Give them a good
washing and they will be as good as ever.

"Thanks," replied the other drily.
"May I Inquire what motive has fed you

And men relate that Mrs. Newlywed
went to the grocery store to do her
morning marketing. And she was deter-
mined that the grocer should not
take advantage of her youth and inex-
perience,
"These eggs are dreadfully small," she
criticized.
"I know it.'' he answered. "But that's
the kind the farmer brings me. They are
just fresh from the country this morning."
"Yes,"said the bride," and that's the
trouble with those farmers. They are so
anxious to get their eggs sold that they
take them off the nest too soon!" --
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
The death occurred at Hamilton on
Wednesday-, July 3rd, of Mrs. Emily C.
Lister, widow of the late Joseph Lister,in
