S. D. & Co. have now fully placed this advantageous system of business within the reach of the colonial public, and here remind all that, by dealing direct with them, the actual Manufacturers, every customer saves three large profitß—the London Wholesale Sealers' Profit, the Color ial Wholesale Dealers* Profit, and tho Colonial Retail Dealers' Profit—in all cvbe obb htodbbd PSB CENT.
