A GREAT SURPRISE .

There seems to be nothing startling, at least
nothing alarming, in the strange hand which
comes from the other side. 1t comes from the
darkness 1t is true but perhaps the lady can
account for it, after the surprise is past. The
door is closed and there does nota appear to be
sufficient shield for hiding. Whence then
comes the hand9 Perhaps the reader can ex.
plain it.
Similar surprises inbusiness are shown every
day. A citizen of Middletown made Holi-
day purchase in the city, carried it for hours
atgreat inconvenience, returned home to find
the indentical article at the same price on the
tables Of a local dealer. That was an annoy
ing surprise.
One of the real and constant surprises to the
people of Middletown is the very low prices
maintained by Mrs. Thos Massey on all lines
ofjewerley, watches, clocks, sflverware, cut
glass, &c. 1t should not be; it is simple enough;
it's In the buying-and the selection. There's
much In selecting. If you have present to
make, or purchase for self in Mrs. Massey's
line, a comparison of prices and quality Of
goods with any other Is invited, especially
city prices. Repairing speciality.

PHILADELPHIA. MONDAY, Feb. Is, 1887.
A singular store. That is why
you like it. Wanamaker's and a
world-fuI of stores-two classes of
stores. Just two. Always new,
always attractive-more than a
store. As much more as we have
the room to make it. But first and
foremost a store-an outlet for
goods so important to producers that
It is really downhill from every
where.
Dependable goods gravitate here;
a college of watchers scour the
world that Philadelphia shoppers
may have the best. Sellers of trash
avoid us-and save their time. In
teresting at all times. Interesting
these gray winter days because new
goods are getting first showing, while
lots of goods for present needs are
being turned to cash-to your ad-
vantage and ours.
