PHILADELPHIA, Monday, March 70, 1897.
The store life is intense.
Buoyant Spring rules! Stocks are
greater than ever, and freSher. The
seasons work was successfully
planned to combat the times, how
ever bard. Easier times will simply
make the vast preparations more
generally enjoyable.
No shoppers in any city have ever
been invited to such a feast of mer-
chandise-aggregating just now Five
Million Dollars in value. Nor have
prices ever averaged so low.
The store is free from all at
tempts at sensational bargaining
no goods are ever offered here as
"baits" to lead one into paying too
much for some other articles. Every
transaction is based on the we'll
founded confidence that the whole
force of the business is back of that
sale, no matter how small. The goods
are right and adaptable to the pur-
chasers' need, or we stand ready
and anxious to refund the price paid.
1t amounts to a guarantee not only
of right price, but that each pur-
chaser shall be entirely satisfied.
That is reason enough why the
business keeps growing larger each
year. If it stopped deserving, it
would stop growing.
The spring business will be great,
because it is being we'll done-prof-
itably to you.

Ralph Wilkes 2.062, that he sold for
$40, 600, brought two fast mares, viz.
Nellie, a half to Ralph Wilkes 2.06a, to
Hedge6eld, to be bred to Bellman 2.14a'
whose get he had heard so much Of from
other horsensn. After seeing Bellman
brush on the road. and examining him
and his offspring at the farm, he at
once decided to send him three other
mares, expressing his opinion in the
presence Of several other visitors, that
he had rather own Bellman, or breed
from him at the same fee, than any
other trotting sire In existence in Ken
lucky, or elsewhere. and hence should
sent him all his mares, before his fee
was advanced, as he is sure it must be,
as soon as breeders realize how rapidly
the demand is increasing, for the type
of animals he produces, from all kinds
of dams.
