THE VERDICT
Our Millinery Opening Saturday evening was a grand suc-
cess. The verdict of nearly all the ladies, was that our
Millinery was far ahead of anything in town. We are
willing to leave it in their hands to decide.
We don't believe in continually blowing our own. horn (as
seine do) and claiming wehave better goods and facili-
ties for buying than others do not possess. The markets
are open to all who have the money to buy. We will give
you as good value for your money as anyone in the trade.
Our stock is now complete and we ,have everything to be
found in a first-class store.

You *ill stand in need of some new Carpets to replace
the old ones that have done service for some years, or a
few pairs of Lace Curtains which we start in price trona
350 per pair to $8 in both Cream and White. Then .we
have some very lovely things in ChenillePortiers in all
the popular colors,which the people tell us are as cheap as
be got in the city. Then we have a very pretty
thing in Tapestry Poitiers in Brown and Gold, which
come cheaper than the chenille and look handsome.

To our oustomers who have helped us to make our last year the beat in the history of
the firm, we tender onr best thanks, and assure them we will will spare no
efforts to not only retain their trade, but to give them even better value for
their money Etr produce tha9 heretofore. We have just closed the purchase of
ONE CAR LOAD OF SUGAR
Direct from Redpatb's refinery (without doubt the best Sugar produced in
Canada) which we will sell by the dollars worth or by the barrel at prices
that cannot be beaten.
TEAS, COFFEES, CANNED GOODS, FRUITS
And everything pertaining to a first-class trade as low as the lowest. We believe we
are within the mark, when we say our BLACK TEA at 50e a lb.
beats the town. We have had a large sale of CO,OCKERY lately
which has diminiabed our stock somewhat, but have a nice assortment
arriving which we will be pleased to show intending purchasers. Call and
get prices before buying.

The annual report of the Postmaster -
General shower that the number of post -
offices in operation in the Dominion is
8,477, which taking the population accord-
ing to the census of 1891, would give one
postoffioe to every 570 persons. In the
-United States the Koportion is about one
postoffice to 925 persons, so that in respect
to the accommodation afforded by the
postoffice to the people as large Canada
compares very favorably with the United
States. On June 30, 1892 there were 8,288
postofficea in Canada. The increase during
the year bas, therefore, been 189. During
• the same period the mail routes have been
increased by the addition of 2,313 miles of
new routes, and the annual mail travel,
which in. 1892 was 28,462,384 miles, was
for the year ended June 30, 1893, 30,495,723
miles.

In guns, the old style flint locks, with
stocks carved and painted in colors and
with the barrels painted in peculiar hiero-
glyphics, are sold to the Arabs and Afri-
can -tribes in quantities. The South Amer-
ican takes a dainty barrel of the smallest
gauge, with the stocks also elaborately
carved and ornamented. The European
buys a gun exquisitely finished and inlaid
in tracings of gold. The barral is often
of fluid steel, which is considered better
than the best Damascus. The American
cares nothing for ornament, but demands
something that will stand wear and tear.

There were about 700 head of butchers' cattle,
80 calves and 60 sheep offered at the East End
Abattoir. The butchers were out in large
numbers, but it was small stuff they were after
and they only bought cattle when they got a
bargain. Some 280 head of the cattle offered
were held over from last Thursday's market,
and the holding over process will havo to be
repeated with a large number of to -day's offer-
ings. Tho drovers are feeling rather :poorly,
and many of them are bound to lose money on
their sales. Thc best calves were bought up
before reaching the market, leaving only a few

John Swan & Sons, Liverpool, in their week-
ly report of March 30, says:—The home supplies They of home fed fat cattle in Edinburgh and Gine-
gow have been rather smaller. Trade has bare-
ly, been so good, the demand in the meat mar-
kets continuing dull. Owing to the large im-
ports of foreign meat, English buyers have
operated very sparingly. Fat cows met a fair-
ly good trade. The imports from America
have been exceedingly large and a compara-
tively new feature m this trade is the large
number of sheep sent from the States. The
supplies of sheep have boon rather under an
average and trade was quite as good. Ewes
scarce and dearer. Lambe in short supply;
best made higher prices. Calves—A large
ehow; best made about last week's prices. Pigs
met a fair trade. Store sheep met a good trade
at rather higher prices. Good class store cattle
also met a good demand. Milk cows in rather
smaller numbers but, except for a few of the
best, they mot a dull trade. Best beef, 7s 3d to,
7s tid per stone; secondary,68 6d to 7s per stone;
best mutton, 814 Becondary, 7d to 7id per lb.
