business on a Cash Basis.

AS the Woman's Exchange Is a
branch of the work Of the Young Wo-
mems Christian Association to help
worthy women make livelihood al

be no accounts of long standing, and
owing to the fact that a number of pa

become necessary for the managers OF
the exchange to establish cash busi-
ness, and they hereby give notice OF the
same, and ask that their patrons pay
for all articles when they are delivered,
thereby assuring better success finan-
cially for the exchange In the future.
