A WOED ABOUT FLANNELS. On the present occasion it is not intended to enter on any lengtbened 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 recommendation of NEW FLANNELS, is sui'ely 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 to be so unanimous in their estimate of the value of this commodity, without some very satisfactpry reason. The fickleness of the weather at the change of the season speaks to us in an unmistakeable 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 & PIEIE 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.
EEMAEKS ON COATS. ■ The words—" The mind's the standard I of the man " are apt to give some men an 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 be bad 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 l'aces may perplex some to know how and where Coats can be bad adapted to this diversity, but a moment's reflection will enable them to see that the mo3t likely place to fall in with the proper assortment is where the LAEGEST STOCK of COATS is kept, aud where they can be had from the nominal price of ten shillings up to that which would please a Duke. As Whyte 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.
