TnE effort to give the people an op
portunity in the most favorable way
possible, under the law, to say whether
they wish a constitutional convention or
not is proceeding slowly and con.
tiously, as it should. There is no haste
for change ia the constitutional or
fundamental law The constitution
is The foundation principle Of ali law
and order ia the commonwealth: hence it
cannot be used for the correction Of
tranistroy evils or to meet abnormal
exigencies in the administration of ius

expense Of an economical administration
Of the laws. The Legislature is estab.
lished for those purposes for settling the
details, after the charter for the act has
been granted. The constitution should
not be overloaded and confused with the

of a freshness and touch with the very

In 1879 an effort was made to induce
Congress to endorse and assist the build
ing of an inter, oceanic ship canal across
the American Isthmus which fortunately
failed. A committee was appointed on
whose report the scheme for aid was
rejected This may have been done
solely on account Of the rigid adherence

The mid-Winter Sale Of
Muslin Underwear is an ap-
parent contradiction. The

We can save more money
for buyers Of Muslin Under

either Spring or Fall. That is
the crucial test.
Such sales have been held
for several success i've Winters.
But the present opel atoms
bring better Bargains than
ever before.
Bleached cotton fabrics of
the makes used in the goods
offered to-day are advancing
in value. The contracts for
this great stock were made
six and eight months since.
Thus fifteen per cent. has
been saved on materials.
The orders are for scores of
thousands of the various gar
ments. Thus the greatest
economy is secured in manu-
facturc.
The Swiss Embroiderics
used for trimmings were spe-
cially imported for this oc-
casion. Novelty and uni
formity of designs are thereby
obtained.
Neatness and strength are
united in all of the garments,
even the cheapest.
The retail prices of the com
pleted garments are in many
cases less than the cotton
cloth for them alone would
now cost.
Wholesale dealers arc ready
to pay more than our retail

In addition to the large

Main Floor are assigned to
this sale.
The goods include gar

"The story OF the disappearance Of
Gainsboroughs portrait Of the beautiful
Duchess of Devonshire belongs to the
romance of art. The history Of the yicis-

more startling than the theft Of this can

Christie's in King street on May 6, 1876

been heard since Of this famous
picture The one of her Grace at

with one Of his pictures of the duchess
that he would not send it to Chatsworth.
He drew his wet brush across the ex-
