As building sites in the town are now 1 so scarde, 4:lns sale offers an opportunity to investors not often met with. ' Messrs R. H.' White and Co. have imported a shipment of non-inflammable flannelettes for children's night-gowns: The danger to children with the ordinary flannelette is so great that most mothers have always felt uneasy in .letting a child so clad "go near the fire,. Tlie non-inflammable flannelette is an ideal material for children's wear, and Messrs R. H. White and Co.'s enterprise will no doubt be well repaid by large sales of the material.
