In. COUTURE.
While canvassing Manchester De-
pot went into "Henry's" new store
and say it is splendid store, so neat
and clean, with all new, fresh goods
and fixtures, and the prices make you
smile, they are so reasonable. Hen
nv" las we all call HIM came to the
Depot over 80 years ago, bright,
pleasant young man, neat and smiling,
and courteous to all. With good word
and a warm hand of welcome he has
under all circumstances remained the
same. Now in a new $4,000 store he
bows as courteously and smiles as
pleasantly as ever. Henry" speaks
both English and French and thereby
is able to understand most of his Gus
toners; he also uses the JOURNALS
columns, which shows he knows how
to advertise to the best advantage.
