all the enthusiasm for another
such day. The merchants seem
all of one kind, lets make it big

streams.

are your companions and the more
that you trade with them the more
they can honestly afford to give
you more for your money, by be-
ing able to- do more than get along
on little profits where the sales
are numerous. So lets all of us
when the time comes show that
you appreciate such things by be-
ing here and taking advantage of
the bargains offered.
