THE SHIET CONTEOVEESY. " Shirts are sold which axe not shirts. Let the world consider."— Carlyle. At no season could the introduction of the shirt question for discussion be more opportune than when, according to the good custom of their ancestors, men desire to procure for themselves the Annual Christmas Outfit, and, while Wuyte and Pibie can endorse heartily the statement of the philosopher about Shirts, they can also without fear of contradiction affirm that he who wants a Shirt can buy at WESTPOET HOUSE what will be found to be a Shirt in every sense of the word. If Mr Carlyle would favor Whyte and Pirie with a call, ocular demonstration would be given that the Shirt trade, as carried on by them, is not thus demoralised, and that such a statement could not apply in any case to their Shirt transactions. EEADT MONEY. "Is twice bless'd. It blesseth him that gives and him that takes."— Shakspeare. Men may believe in the power of the Archimedian screw, they may laud the lever and prop, but the startling changes effected by the judicious application of Eeady Money strike them with astonishment. At no time can its influence be brought to bear more satisfactorly than about the Christmas holidays, and nowhere can the transformations wrought by it be more patent than when it is applied to the purchase of New Clothing. Eecoguising its place and power, Wiiyte and Pirie w T ill submit the whole of their Stock to be operated upon by it in order to effect a clearance. ENGLISH NEWSPAPEES BOOKS, MAGAZINES, &c.
