As Market Clerk Collaghan was not present to collect the fees, the “box" was not as remunerative as it should have been. The way the battle commenced was just too nice for anything. Frank led ofl‘ with a neatly turned bit of oratory that struck Jim right over the heart and staggered him somewhat, but he rallied and sent back several very cut- ting remarks that caught Frank on the jaw and rattled him consulerably.

Notice of them were crowded out last week and we take pleasure 1n publishing them now. Britton Bros. had a great rally at their jewellry opening.

The three grades offered this year will make a warm summer of it for competitors. Mr. R. 5. Porter. of Wall paper time, had an exhibit in his windows that proved an eye opener.

Mr. Porter has the newest things in domestic and foreign papers, and is making a heavy haul on the local trade. Mr. W. A. Goodwin is entirely “in it” when wall papers are under discussion. When buying that article Mr. Goodwin exercises not only business ability, but a high degree of artistic taste. We were thoroughly impressed with that fact when looking over 1115 display of papers on a recent visit to the store.
