Drapery. Q.RA TI FT IN G INTELLIGENCE. Amidst all the changes and improvements we have to chronicle from week to week, none can he more beneficial to the City than to see old buildings, like the memory of ■the past, fleeting away, and, Phcenix-like, of their ashes J NEW AND STATELY PLACES OF ■ BUSINESS ■ springing up in their stead. To our town and country customers, H. O W E N and -CO., National Drapery Depot, Lambton Quay, Embrace the earliest opportunity of returning their sincere THANKS for the Unprecedented Increase to their General • Business i for the last few months, and they can only view such an increase as a TEST OP 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. OWEN and C 0., Lambton Quay, 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 worl, as a portion of the front buildings must be removed in fopteen days fx-om this date. , Under these circumstances, H. OWEN and CO. are determined to give Their Town and Country Customers' the benefit‘of tlxeir GREAT' CLEARING PRICES, as a Graceful Compliment foe Past Favors.
