one Dollar Store

One Dollar Store
"Well, whoever heard of such Bargainsq
am sure you will question my word
When tell you the bargains bought there,
AT prices that are really absurd
There never was anything like It'll
How they do it really can't fell
For things which are cheap at Eve dollars,
For ONLY ONE DoLLAR they sell!
There are Parasols, Sun-shades, Umbrellas;
There are Work-boxes, Card-cases, Gloves;
There are Necklaces, Brooches and Earrings
And Flowers for Bonnets-such loyesI
There are Brushes Hand Mirrors Cosmetics:
S Sets 9, Lace wristbands and cuffs
And beautiful Tippets and Muffs!
There are Fans and rare Trinkets from china
Such elegant things from JapanI
There such charming triles from Paris:
Curious ancles from Court OF the Khanl
Silver Ffuit-knives, Bohemian Glass-ware
Cups. Goblets. Decanters, beside
Everything which can tickle the fancy
OF maid, wife, widow or bride.
could not begin dear, to tell you
One half OF the things which are there,
But they nave everything you can think of
AID thousand times more declared
Anything you may wish for ONE DOLLAR
You may buy, although it is worth ten,
Inever saw anything like it,
And shall see nothing like it again!
Oh, tell you it's perfectly splendid!
It's really Palace, indeed!
It's elegance, beauty aud grandeur
Not place in the world can exceed,
The Showcases, well they are gorgeous!
You never saw such an array;
thought should ne'er be done gazing.
Or that should meier get away.
And the Bargains they sell for a DOLLAR!
M, DOLLAR buys anything there:
They never ask more than One Dollar
And bless me, how TooDLEs will stare
When he sees what I've bought for ONE DOLLAR
How they doit, Pm puzzled to know,
But get on your bonnet this moment.
And off to the Palace let's 60. u
Put your purse in your pocket, and hasten
Away to the Palace at once
For if you should miss such rare bargains
Your friends would pronounce you a Ounce,
You'll find that the half I've not told you,
When this Enchanted Palace YOU view
And you'll open your eyes wide with wonde]
When you find what ONE DOLLAR WILL DO.

REMARKS.
The receipts of Western cattle during the wecl.
has been less than 500, hardly one third OF the
average number for several previous weeks.
There were, however over 30 head left unsold
from last week. To-day there were about 500
head of Northern cattle received at Cambridge
mostly rather slim stock last Tuesday there were
only about one-half as many. The beef market,
except for the best qualities remains rather stu
