ENTERPR1sE.-New stock and low
prices. Beheng & Scherf have closed
out the whole of their old stock, since
the fire, had their store repaired and re-
painted, so that not even the smell of
the fire remains, and have put in large
new stock of goods. They have had
chance to take advantage of the present
low prices in the Dry Goods Market,
and propose to give their customers new
goods at low prices. These gentlemen
have established a reputation for selling
low and they propose to keep their rep
utation good. Who says this is not en-
terprise?
