A larger number, perhaps more than ever before,took part in discussing the topic. This is. a hopeful sign. PEDDLERS AND Tesexes.reAgain with the advent of spring, peddlers and tramps are abroad.

The cold and blistery weather of the past week makes one think much more kipdly of the tried and trusty Winter Overcoat and the comfortable Fur Cap, than of Spring and Sum- mer Clothing. Nevertheless, NOW IS THE VERY BEST TIME to order what you need in that line, for two very good reasons. The first is, that the earlier you place your order the better choice you will get, and we have some beautiful things in Suitings and Gentlemen's Furnishings; the second is, that the present cold spell will give us an opportunity to get up -with our orders, but the first warm weather will be sure to bring a rush. It's always wise to get before the rush. Drop in and see our stock; have a chat about Clothing.

Althcnigh we have not made a per- sonal trip to European countries, we have had the agents of manufacturers from England, Scotland, France, Germany, Austria and Switzerland at our doors, each one of whom was confined to ourselves for taking orders in this vicinity. Of course, we do not pretend to say that we import all lines of goods we handle from the older countries. Canada, with the protection afford- ed her, has come to the front with many lines of goods, notably Staples and Clothing. In these we have endeavored to select the very best values fromlocal makers. Our stock of Silks, Dress Goods, Linens'Hosiery and Gloves will be found -exceptionally fine. Prints and Cretonnes, Millinery goods, Car- pets and Oil Cloths, elegant in designs. Clothing, Tweeds, Worsteds, Hats and Caps remarkably good valnes.
