These are times when, between seasons,
the rush of buyers have been supplied,
and the number of buyers is relatively
small There is never Il time, however,
when there il not a class Of buyers whose
trade is worth seeking, and those who
Inv in what is called between season
shoppers are particularly well worth
seeking. They are the people who stay
n home when the seasonable shoppers
,,e ont of town. Another thing about it
il these buyers are they who always buy
at home stores. This we take it is such
n season. and there are such buyers III
this city. The buyers are the working
n,,nle who read The Sun. There may

customers do not read The Sun, but there
