4 LIBERAL. MONEYS WORTH,

One way to arrive at this result Is TO mark
4 price IN plain figures on everything We
sell, which price is absolute, and TO let yOu
buy what You like. go away, and come and
trade back again it You want to. We find
by experience that this liberAlity is harm.
less to us OF course customers like 1t, and
1t makes quick and steady dealing. We
don't want you to bring back what you
buy. 1t would cost us money every time.
but We would rather you would bring back
than keep what you don't like so we try TO
you get at Fl rst what you will like the
better the more you know of it This il
really the whole philosophy of our dealing
Tie Cloth!ng trade OF the present tiay re-
Tuircs great variety ct patterns. which
people like. because everybody likes to
choose out ni many rather than ont of few.
There are inst TWO THINGS we never
alter, viz: The PRICE and the TERMS.
The Price Of erery Garment is Plainly
Marked and the Terms are Strictly CASH.
With this understanding customers never
waste time in trading, but select with the
knowledge that if they change their minds
afterwards they Can bring the clothes back
and have their money.

Of the Land League. Mr.. Forster asked for
power, in all proclaimed districts, to arrest and
detain sach suspected agents of agrarian crime,
on the warrant Of the Lord Lieutenant only,
the power to last till the end of September,
1882. Further, the Government ask for
power to arrest all persons held, on reason
able suspicion, TO be guilty of treason or trea-
son-felony, 10 any district IN Ireland, whether
proclaimed or not. The object is to strike the
same terror into the agents of the recent terror

had been granted, agrarian crime 10 Ireland

the work of the tenant, and the fact that
ayearly tenant is at any time liable to
have his rents raised in consequence of
the increase in value that has been given
to his holding by the expenditure Of his
W capital and labour, the desire for
legislative interference to protect him from
all arbitrary increase of rent does not seem
unnatural, and we are inclined to think
that by the majority Of landowners legis-

end would not be objected to. With a
view of affording such security fair rent

The "Kangaroos' were separated
from the city by bayou, which was
crossed by q wooden structure known
by the suggestive name of the ''Bridge
of Signs" Across this the now frenzied
people hurried the captive gamblers.
On the other side trees were selected,
and in less than an hour after the muir
der of DR.. Bodley the five gamblers
were swinging by the necks, dead. But
this was not the end it was only the
beginning of the terrible retribution to
be exacted. The mob advanced on the
three houses known as the "Kangaroos"
and found that there were still many of
the gamblers who had not taken flight
while there was yet time. These were
seized, some of them shot down, others
driven into the river, and two of them
taken by the mob and thrown from the
"Bridge of Sighs'' into the stagnant
waters of the bayou far below. For
over an hour this terrible scene contin-
aed, before the vengeance of the mob
was satisfied and their work considered
done. How many men persisted that
night will never be known, but 1 have
heard of between fifty and sixty who
were at s'the Kangaroosn on the Fourth
of July, and who were never heard of
