A WEATHER DISASTER.
"What's wrong with tho weather? That’s what everybody wants to know, and although Rev. Bates tells ns prottv correctly what is coming, he does "not tdl us the “why and the wherefore.” Anyhow, it has completely knocked tiie life out of the Drapery Trade, and brought about the most serious setback to the sale ot Summer Goods, that the writer, during 35 years’ experience, has ever known. However, “Nil clesperan(lum,” the Robinsons “Never' saydie.” They believe in taking lile as it comes, and making the best of it. They have determined to move out their season’s stock, a great part of which lias just arrived ex “lonic and “Turakina,” at the same keen cut prices—irrespective of profit in some lines—as they do at their After-Sea-sou-Sales. This means that they are going to do now what they visually do. at the end of February - —hold a big realising sale of tff&ir spßndid stock, for flash only, as a Christmas greeting..- Tins sale .will start on Saturday Next, December iGth, at Robinson’s, Manchester House. x
