Envelopes. Envelopes!! Enve Iopesi,.

Envelopes! Envelopes!! Enve Iopesi!l
 Envelopes-fifty thousand of them all kinds, grades and sizes, were received at the GRAPHIC office yester- day. They came direct from the factory in Massachusetts and they are the best envelopes for the money ever brought to this town. A St. Louis stationery drummer, on seeing the envelopes and invoice for the same yesterday, confessed that they were cheaper than his house could buy them in even larger quantities. The reason of this is that we buy our envelopes from one of the best and largest envelope factories in the United States and then discount our bills. That's what brings results.
 Therefore, we can furnish our GUS toners and the trade generally with as good envelopes as can be bought in this country and at as cheap prices as can be made by any print ing house in the South or West. Don't take our word for it; just call around and see.
 With our steam power and by buying direct from the factory we can set competition at defiance.
 This is no joke. It's fact.
