EM0tfaIn.

We are fond Of the notion that we
know more, that We are wiser, bet
ter, aud more capable than our snces-
tors, and we imagine that therefore We
can afford to disregaId much and to tear
down much that they have said and
done. We forget that, even admitting
our superiority.-which at least IN some
cases may doubted-it is only what
ought to be the case, and what is the
natural outcome Of the accumulative
principle. The tearing down process
would forever prevent this progress. II
is in truly hoporing those that have pass
ed from among us, by nourishing u nd
and developing the best that was In
,hem, that we enrich ourselves and those

The Weight OF a Letter,

A silver dollar weighs very nearly on
ounce. Hence any letter not heavier
than the dollar can go for single two
cent stamp. This is easily remembered
IL you want to be more exact, take q
silver dollar and silver FIVE cent piece,
and you have an ounce almost to q fea'
theirs weight. Provided you haven
the silver dollar handy take two halves
or IL you have nj ckles only, five of them
and small copper cent will give you
nearly an ounce A, ninety nine letters
out Of hundred will fall within the
ounce weight, this simple system Will
serve for general use.

The hest lever q man
can use to make low prices
is ready cash; low price
makes business, and so it
goes. The man who buys
with the cash gets the best
bargains all the time. No
man can do a credit busi-
ness without loss. So
prices have to be made to
cover them to be success
full. We prefer doing a
cash trade because we can
then make prices SO low
that none can make them
lower. We are offering
now special bargains in
Mems and Boys Clothing
We have a very full stock
of handsome suits for
Men, Youths, Boys and
Children, and as a special
inducement, with every
readv.made suit sold for
$l2 or over we give O good
watch and chain ss n pres
ent. We do this as anadver
tisement, and cam O I
afford to continue it long
as we have made no differ
ence in our prices as many
would have you believe
Our prices are all marked
in figures on the gar
ments, which also saves
you a great deal of annoy
ance. Our custom depart
ment contains the lates
