Drapers and Clothiers, There is a tide in the affairs of men Which taken at the flood leads on to fortune. THE TIDE In tho Qffniri of the EXHIBITION wne in taking the "NET PROMPT cash " obanoel and leaviDg tbe aboali and the nanowi of Credit, therein so ra&ay once good coaimeroials crafts lie atranded. When we set our sails for the new coarse all the pilots eri rl " there ia no water there to float anything but a little boat, yon will Dever get the EXHIBITION round the rlr«t bend, she draws a lot of water." She does draw a Jot of water but still d.fl9 do&u We have foand the water deep enough for us and the winds fiir jad -»ar ,»_ce conaorts — §uch of them as yet float — are hall down in the distdaee It ia patent that if goods can be bought for caah in Britain from first hands, and aold for cash here, that they can be sold at prices against which % any competition 18 hopeless, in caßee where goods are bought at second-hand and sold at oredit prices We are astonished at oarselves that we lacked the courage to carry out fiimly a Oaßb policy many years ago when there w«b more money in circulation. Any business is bound to grow year by year which is conducted on the Bound principles on which onra now is, because every year will make the fact of the unoenal qualiiy and value of the goods more widely known. When we introduced our Cash System we promised onr Cnstomers that " so soon as a larger turnover rendered smaller profits possible, smaller profits would be taken." This Season we have in accordance with this policy felt justified in reducing the pro t on inßny lines. Shopkeepern do not buy Calicoß, Shirtings, Sheetings, or Flannels from the whole sale cheaper by the piece fban we sell by th« yard. NOR FLOORCLOTHS, LINOLEUMS, NOR CARPETS. In READY-MADE CLOTHING and SHIRTS the same quality cannot be got at all elsewhere at any price. They are made by ourselves on the premises, and our first consideration is excellence in workmanship and trimmings, but even with this they are as cheap to look at as the usual slopped up article. In French and English DRESS GOODS we are an easy first. Nowhere else can you get dresses first class in material, fit, and finish for so little money. Again our motto is "Excellence." On our ORDER SUITS only first-class workmen are employed, the fit and finish please the most fastidious, and the prices agreeably surprise the most careful. We are determined if choice goods at low prices will do it to send our Showroom tride ahead with a boom. We have noticed that the first exclamation on seeing our NEW MILLINERY ia " bow pretty," and the second ou hearing the price ia " it must be low clbsb," but it is not low class, as the moat cursory examination con vinces everybody. The JACKETS and the MANTLES elicit similar remarks, but neither are (hey low : they are very choice goods. We mean business. THOMSON AND BEATTIE. TTISIftIfIS— PROMPT NET CASH.
