Drapery. STRATIFYING- INTELLIGENCE. Amidst all the changes and improvements we have to chronicle from week-to week, none can be more beneficial to the City than to see old buildings, like the memory of the past, fleeting away, and, Phcenix-like, of their ashes NEW AND STATELY PLACES OF BUSINESS springing up in their stead. To our town and country customers, H. OW E N AND C 0., National Drapery Depot, . Lambton Quay, Embrace the earliest opportunity of returning their sincere THANKS for the Unprecedented Increase to their General Business for the last few month.*!, and they can only view such an increase as a TEST OF PUBLIC CONFIDENCE, in spite of those sensational, announcements which from time to time appear in the daily papers from rival establishments, who quote a few prices in order as a bait held out to allure the unwary. H. OWE N and CO, Lambton Qtiay, May urge as an ample reason, that the present IMMENSE REDUCTION IN PRICE is caused by an Urgent Necessity for Diminishing the Stock, in order that the workmen engaged in the NEW BUILDING may not be retarded in their wort, as a portion of the front buildings must be removed in fourteen days from this date. H. 0 W E N and CO. are determined to give Their Town and Country Customers the benefit of their GREAT CLEARING PRICES, as a Graceful Compliment for Past Favors.
