DISTRIBUTIONS.

We would call attention TO the opinion oil
one Of the leading papers Of Canada Oh this sub
ject:
Most OF our readers have no doubt read some
Of the numerous advertisements Of Gift Enter
prises, Gift Concerts, &c, which appear from
time to time in the public prints, Offering most
tempting bargains 10 those who viii patronIze
them In most cases these arc genuine hum
bugs. But there are few respectable hrms
who do business in this manner, aud they do IL
as a means Of increasing their wholesale ousi-
ness, and not to make money. From such hrm',
II is true. handsome and valuable articles are
procured for very small sum, and what IS
more important no one IS ever cheated. Eve
~ person gets good value for his dollar be-
cause as we have stated, il is Intended 10 ACT
as an advertisement 10 increase tneir ordinary
business.
We have seen numbers Of prizes sent out III
this way by SHERMAN, WATSON s COMPANY,
of Nassau Street, n. T., and there is no doubt
that some Of the articles are worth eight or
ten times the money paid for Them, while we
have not seer or heard Of a single article which
was not fully worth the dollar which it cost.
But this is the only one of the exceptions Of
this rule, for as general thing the parties en-
gagged in this business are nothing but clever
swinders. Saturday Reader, Montreal, c. b.,
Jan. Is, 1866.
