CANDIES THAT WILL TICKLE
Such are to be Served to Pleased
Patrons by Griffin
e Walmer

Having recently greatly improved
their facilities for the manufacture Of
all lines of high class confectionery
Griffin & Walmer, Is E. Alder street,
have decided to conduct their business
somewhat different in the future to
what they have in the past.
The changes they propose to make
and adopt are Of great interest to the
local public because from now on it
means that they are going to have an
opportunity to buy candies-all kinds
at prices much lower than they ever
paid before.
The Griffin & Walmer idea in the
future will be to sell candies at such
prices that will give them a greater
volume of business. Doing a large
business they can sell their patrons
at a minimum of profit.
An idea of price reductions for can
dies that are home made and strictly
the best, may be gained by noting the
following prices: Best chocolates and
bon bons, Csc per pound; put up in
fancy boxes, one-half pounds, zoe;
one pound, 40; two pound, 75s; three
pound, $100; four pounds, $1.25. Old
fashion chocolates, zoe per pound;
Nougats, 25c per pound; taffies, 15c
per pound; all crisp and nut bars, zoe

pound; fruit drops, Csc; stick candies
zoe; cream homemade mixed, 15c per
pound; Turkish rolls, Csc per pound !;
cream caramels, Csc per pound; pep
permint chews, Csc; peppermint waters,
