Toronto's All eanada Exhibition.
"Educational an entertaining, aggres-
sive and progressive are the very appro-
priate watch words dopted by the Toronto
Industriel Exhibitio • this year, which will
be held from August 27th to September 8th.
This is the twenty -s oond successive year of
Canada's great Exp.sition ab -Toronto, and
each year has not 0.1y Been an improve-
ment in the arrange ents as compared with
the years that have nine, but the quality of
the stook is very far ahead of what it was
t the beginningeth s proving the inestim-
ble value of Fairs Lich as that held an-
• ually at Toronto. It is an old story to
say that the exhib tion immediately ap•
reaching will be su Odor to all its preee-
oessors, but it can a fely be said that ar-
rangements have ben made, and negotia-
tions are pending, tl at warrant the state-
ment that the Toren o Fair of 1900 will fully
Maintain the reputation it has gained of be-
ing the best of all that are annually held.
A good deal of the space has already been
taken up, and a num ter of entries have been
made, but there are o many divisions com-
prised in the prize li t, with its' 131 classes
and $35,000 in pre iums, that there is
ample provision for all; and, talking Df
those divisione, it is ntereating to note that
there r are no fewer than 55 in class 128,
knitting, shirts, quil s, cloths, etc.; 354 in
class 54, poultry; a d tin average of 16 or
17 in 3ach of the tw dozen classes devoted
to horses and cattle This will give some
idea not only of the cope of Toronto's Great
Exposition, but ale of the opportunities
offered tone -sure a p ize. It is a little early
to refer to what is p ornised in the way of
entertainment, but hen it is etated that
30,000 is spent an ually on this depart-
ment, visitors have ample guarantee that
they will be abunda tly provided for, and
the admiision to th Toronto Exposition
with its myriads of attractions is only 25
cents.. Entries close on August 4th, and
prize list can be ba by addressing II. J.
Hill, Manager Indu trial Exhibition, Tor-
onto. As last year, zO this, the exhibition

Stock -taking always brings to light the odds and ends of a dry goods stock.
There's the last one or two of this line, the last few yards of something else,
that unless cleared out soon accumulate and lock up money we should have the
use of. There's just one way to prevent this accumulation, and that is to sell
them out each season. •
We're going to make next week Remnant Week, when every odd line in
the store, every piece that's short enough to be called a remnant will be gather-
ed together, placed on our counters and marked at a price that will tempt you
to buy, and make it worth your while to come here Remnant Week
Odds and ends means that in all cas s quantities are small, and that first
buyers will get best choice.
