N[EcHrs SYSTEM of TRADE is to warrant
every article of his manufacture, exchange what is defective,
or return the money if required, so that his customers may feel
perfect confidence, and have what suits them best. Ile is desirous of
having it well understood that, although his establishment presents a
large and well arranged stock of rich and elegant manufactures, still
the ordinary articles of utility may be purchased of him cheaper
than elsewhere. For instance, the best single-bladed penknives at
each are warranted ; good scissors at the same price ; excellent
tooth brushes 6d. each, and the best silver wire and solid back at 0.1.
each ; good plain mahogany writing-desks, I2s: each ; work-boxes
at all prizes ; six well Mashed table knives And forks for ss. 6d.;
Britannia metal tea and coffee pots, plated on steel and German
silver articles, all reasonable and good. It may be well to state that
there are plenty of persons In the trade who have imitated articles
of Mechi's solo invention without being candid enough to acknow-
ledge it, such as his patent castellated tooth brushes, his Mechian
dressing-care, his magic strop and paste, and so on. • hlichi thinks it
no more than just to remind his customers t f this fact, and to guard
them against purchasing as hls articles, purporting :to be what they
are not,although dearer in price and inferior in quality.
Catalogues may 8e had gratis.
