Piper, Drake & Co., have received, and will
continue to receive every few days, additions to
their already fine stock of Goods and as ''ttey
think they haze the INCEST trade in toscn' they are
compelled to keep J1erst-class goods as they have
always done, and can and will sell them at fair
prices.
They will also keep what merchants call 'ssee-
onds'' which are, in some instances, pretty fair
goods, but can, as a general thing, be sold for
less than FIRST class goods cost
They do not propose to sell seasona6le goods at
cost, for if they did their friends would not be-
lieve them, but they do promise to sell as loc as
any other house, for the same class of goods.
They have just received splendid lot of
