The public had no knowledse of the many interesting items ‘that were to appear, but each stock especially. ‘was early and during the day the center of a throng of ardent buyers. Not at all surprising. Such oppo! transpire—are rarely realized. Taken in their entirety they form s collection of bargains that one word only stands for—Kemarkable. We are the first to get advantage of the ‘‘trade happenings” which occur from time to time. Couldn't do this, though, did we not possess exceptional facilities and occupy au uncommon position in the mercantil® world. Agents in our New York office all the time—our buyers making weekly visits to the markets—an almost limitless distributing ability—these all aid us in collecting and disposing of great lots of merchandise ‘st minimum prices.
