WHTTE &c PIBIE Are giving up Business in Westport. THE MONTH OF AUGUST AT WESTPORT HOUSE
A WOED ABOUT FLANNELS. On tbe present occasion it is not intended to enter on any lengthened dissertation on this subject, but simply to indicate the train of thought that ought to be indulged in at this season of the year, and carried out to some practical and beneficial bearing. The circumstance that medical men so strongly recommend FLANNELS to patients, and more particularly their recommendatiou of NEW FLANNELS, is surely suggestive. Men who have spent years of patient study, and who have had vast and varied experience in the exercise of their profession, are notlikely tobesounanimous in their estimate of the value of this commodity, without some very satisfactory reason. The fickleness of the weather at the change of the season speaks to us in an uumistakeablc manner, to maintain an efficient supply of FLANNEL Underclothing, in order that a scatheless passage may be effected to a more settled and agreeable temperature. What has been most wanted in the district in regard to FLANNEL SHIETS and DEAWEES, WHITE & PIETE are now prepared to supply, viz: — CHEAPNESS, Largeness of Size, and the capacity to stand the ordeal of the washing-tub without becoming so attenuated as to seem only the ghosts of their former selves.
EEMARKS OX COATS. The words—" The mind's the standard of the man " are apt to give some men au excuse for inattention to their outward appearance, and they flatter themselves that, because their outward appearance is by no means indicative of greatness, they must have superior minds, and, drawing themselves up in their unseemly outfits, they recite the above quotation, in bravado. A cosmopolitan, from appearance alone, would be very sceptical of a man's mind being either great or of any great attainments, if he had not a respectable coat on his back, as the will and the ability to wear a becoming coat are indicative, in some degree, of a mind properly exercised. The endless variety of configuration in the body of the Saxon, Celtic, and other races may perplex some to know how and where Coats can be had adapted to this diversity, but a moment's reflection will enable them to see that the mo3t likely place to fad in with the proper assorlment is where the LARGEST STOCK of COATS is kept, aud where they can be had from the nominal price often shillings up to that which would please a Duke. As Y, r hyte and Pirie are determined to clear out their stock of Coats prior to the close of the financial year, those who want Coats, and expect to get them at moderate prices, will not bo disappointed if they go to the proper market.
