ADvICEs from down the river are
to the effect that all of the boats of
the Morgantown and Pittsburg Packet

the river at Brownsville waiting for

rather precarious predicament when
the ice breaks up if it goes out with a

THE successful merchants of every
city in the United States testify that
steady advertising brings immensely
better results than spasmodic adver-
Using. Ordinarily the best bargains
are to be had after the holidays. Why
then should merchants stop advertis-
ing? Make business by calling atten-
tion every day to what you have in
the way OF leftover bargains. For a
comparatively small investment mer-
chants can make permanent business
