and THTRTY inches in thickness. lie is sorry
that the original cost and heavy expenses Of pro
curing IT, will not allow him to put the price So
low to consumers as he would wish but he is per
shaded that when its durability and superior quail
ties are fully tested il will be found cheaper than
any other to DC had, and when the account for tho
whole seasons ice is footed up, the total expense
will not De found To De greater than the SUM paid
for our ordinary ice in common seasons.

We do not covet for our Monthly the no

that others have done or are doing so we'll:
rather will we claim the work of uttering
what others reserve, of pleading for the sup

thoughts which are commonly whispered in
the ear We therefore promise Il large hos
pItaiIty to all Thinkers and all well-consid-
cred convictions. tits said that telling too
