Edmund Osborne Respectfully calls your attention to the Spring and Summer Goods which have arrived at the CENTRE OF COMMERCE. A special feature in this season's purchases i> a lot of Dress Muslins of Ppaneil Designs > They are really First-class Goods, but so as to create a sale we have decided to add only 26. per yard over the wholesale price on the expensive ones, i.e., where the wholesale price was is 6d we will retail at is 8d per yard. This is done so as to bring the VERY FASHIONABLE GOODS within reach of all. As most of the pieces are in short lengths, friends might arrange to take a piece. The New Hats are rather pretty this season ; there is nothing conspicuous about them. What appears to be in favor is a Sailor Hat with a tie fastened around, allowing the fringed ends t« hang at -the! side. Drew Materials, as usual, will be one of our Specialties. We hay« just received a nice lot 'of Boy's Washington Tweed Suits, in pretty colors, to be sold at frenv 7s to ids* We have three or four hundred Ties and Bows with the Patriotic Colers, arid tiave decided to reduce them all to is each from the day that the Mayor advertises the date of the Peace Demonstration ; in the meantime they are is 6d, and Itst they 7 should all be sold it might b^ as well to secure one at once. By the 6th ot October we hope to have all improvements completed, goods marked off, and the shop dressed out. In the meantime we will be most happy to show Customers the Goods* before they are displayed. An early visit will receive our best attention. Yours obediently, EDMUND OSBORNE.
