Great Rash of Dry Goods.-Messrs.
TnoRNER Il GRAFT, Of lO7 Summit St.. Toledo
have inaugurated another "Toledo WAR" the
war Of the Dry Goods potcn,atcs.
War in its ordinary relations means destruc-
ton and.t spuilation of the people within its
range. The war which THoRNER & GRAFT are
waging is against high prices in tie dry goods
trade. Its design is not to impoverish, but to
benefit and enrich all their customers. In these
operations they stand without peers, in the trade,
and each day their headquarters are throngcd
by large numbers of the "beier half" VI human
ity, whose valuable trophies taken from these
eminent Dry Doals men a. little cost indicates
more wis dom and prudence than characterized
the other pant Of humanity in the former Toledo
war. Ilurrah then for THoRNER & GRAFT, may
they long continue their war on High Prices"
