A Simple Trick!

ANYONE CAN DO IT.

Most houses, however, have too much self- respect to indulge in it

We prefer doing our business honorably rather than cain a cheap notorie’y by appropriating Other peorle’s ideas.

Some time ago we named e certain brand of Gloves

CHICAGO GLOVES. We guaranteed the quality and advertised the

prices. Another firmadvertised the Glove under the same name and cut the price. It's a simple

trick— anyone can do it, To-day we are «losing out the balance of our

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

on bes In View of the Pog Days. Six —Soine time ago all owners of dogs were required to have them distinguished by acoilar round their necks with the owner's name written or stamped upon it, under a penalty of the owner being fined or the canine confiscated to the tender mercies of a young man hired to make away with dogs whose owners did not pay up according to law. The times seem to have changed and the city is almost in- fested with dogs without nave or dis | tinction. Have taxes been paid on them / [f not, why not? The warm weather is here.

Thrilling Adventure With a Bear.

Yesterday morning about nine o'clock, as Mr. James H. Mallard, of Gowan Brae, was driving his young mare to pasture, he observed a bear in the centre of a ten-acre | field of vats Having no weapon, and) knowing that bruin would make his ezcape before he could return from home with a gun, be determined tu attack him with his filly, Adjusting himself, he drew rein and charged. Tho filly made for the bear in right down earnest, and was upon him im aniastant. She struck at him with her fore and knocked him over, then turned and went for him with the heels. Mal ard, thinking the bear was dead, dis mounted, when, to his surprise, the then | wounded bear stood on his haunches and | showed fight. James went for him with | the boots for a short time, but seeing that | bruin was regaining strength, began beat- ing a hasty retreat towards a stone that lay

feet

ata short distance from him. Picking up the stone, he struck the bear on the head and = knocked him} down, he again went for him with his | boots, but the bear finding it a little too! hot, made fora bush near by. Mallard! returned home, gave the alarm and _ re-

turned to the bush armed with a pitchfork After searching for bruin again for some} time he caught sight of him runaimg for | another bush. James pursued him and overhauled him on the run, drove the fork into his side and held him there until one of his neighbors arrived on the spot with an axe and finished him. Looking around they observed two other bears making fer} the wood. Quite a posse of markemer, | well armed, are.now in the forest locking

for the two bears thet made their escape. | But it is doubtfu! if they will be as succes- | ful as young Mallard wes without firearms or wi a on. SOuRts.

TO-DAY the Annual Regatta of the New York Yacht Club takes place. It’s a great day, because the winner vill be the yacht selected to meet the English vessel which has crossed the Atlantic in the hitherto vain effort to recapture the America’s Cup. The cup is lost if our best yacht fails to win the race.

They will look after the races; you look out you wont ‘ose your bargains which we are offering now. We have decided to sell everything in the Store—it matters not what it is, it’s bound to go if you want it. We cannot afford to give them for nothing and send them to your home with a coach and three, but for a consideration scarcely worth mentioning we will do as much for you as any other white men. Seeing is believing Step in and see what we can do if you want anything in our line; and if you don’t want anything, come in and we will grent you rest to your weary bones.
