our handsome mantle room and the choice guods with whicfi it is filled although if that were all we would not consider it a marked success but wheu these remarks havebeen followed up by purchases from us on the part of those who informed us that they had formerly bought iu toronto and were much pleased to find we carried goods that rendered going- out of guelph unnecessary we felt encouraged and
