Ist, —Our Purchases are made from Leading Manufacturer and Warehousemen in Great Britain, the Continent, and the Colony. 2nd.—Our buying terms in nearly every iaitsnoe are prompt Gash. If unable to do this in all cases ve approximate as nearly 'as we can. 3rd.—All goods are shipped te us at Lowest Freights, and after subjected to necessary duty and expenses are marked off at smallest modicum compatible with any margin. Selling for cash ws can afford this, the discounts we receive forming a large portion of our income. 4th.— We have reason to believe oar percentage of expanses to turnover is lower by 10 per cant, than that of any firm doing business in this locality. We will be willing to have this certified to by an auditor if any doubt be cast upan the statement. IHB POSITION we take is perfectly sound and clear—All Goods MARKED in PLAIN FIGURES on CASH TERMS; Thoroughly able Heads of Departments ; and the Minimum of Profits, however, extraordinary the value may be. Wt are not disposed here to question the advantage for either buyer or seller of forcework in tbe way of Drapery Sales that usually inundate the place at this time of the yaar. Ws have never required to take this step ourselves, and so far, fail to (re why any well-managed business should haveto do so. We believe tbe aga of humbug to be passing, and find thi>t our system, at all events, commends itself to the intelligence of the community. SHIPMENTS Ex lONIC NOW OFBNING. INSPECTION INVITED. T. & J.
