Plumsteel & Gibbings, CLINTON Business Colleges To our readers who are trying to decide their future course in life:— This ie the season of the year when many of our young men and women are endea - oring to decide as to the best coarse in life for them to follow. They have been at- teuding public school, high school or colle. oeiate institute to better prepare themselves for the battle of life bat they have not yet chosen their calling. We would recommend those who are de- sirous of eecuring remunerative employ • meat, to consider the advisability of a course of business training or Shorthand in some of our Business Colleges. The pupils of these schools are wonder- fully successful in securing positions with business houses. Forty-one pupils of the Chatham Business College were placed be tween Jan. 1 and May 1, 1897. The institution stands very high in the estimation of the business and general pub- lic. It is the only school of the kind in Canada which has been running for dearly 31 years without change of management, and has had over 2100 students in attend- ance We have no hesitetion in recommending it to intending basiness or Shorthand stud- ents as one worthy of the highest conti- denee.

Men's Suits We sell the 'kind that gives satisfaction to the wearer. The material, the style, the cut, the trimmings and the workmanship, have all had carefn1 at- tention --and they look neater and fit better than many suits that are made to order. Prices range from $4,65 to $10, and we think every suit is A 1 value at its price, but as the cost of making a $5 Suit is about the same es one that sells at $10 the difference in Enloe is owing to superior quality of cloth and triminings, consequently we reepectfully suggest that customers try the bet- ter'clase of goods, which we can guarantee will please in every particular.
