The fLtn'iS premises situated at 171 Peterbaro street, are wall worth a visit, and in every sense wall adapted far tha burin jbs, being commodious, cool, and well veitilated. Thorough cleanliness is noticeable everywhere, and tha general neatnes9 and business method apparent io the internal managem nr, strike tha visitor on entering and make a lasting and favourable impresrioa.
