READ! READ READ The great double column
advertisement Of Messrs. J. r. READ & Co.. in this
mornings News. READS is such an attractive
place at all times, we really do not see why any
extra efforts should be made to induce customers
to- call But, on consideration, we have come to
the conclusion that the members Of this firm are
actuated by higher motives. They care not whe-
ther they sell not. But they know the ladies in
Charleston wanted nice cloaks and elegant basques
and at the same time they also bore in mind the
fact Of the stringency Of our money market, and
accordingly brought ont large assortment Of
splendid wrappings Of all kinds, and at amazingly
low prices.
