international Bible Students oi' (‘llnr- lottotown and vicinity at a nleeting on March 21st, voiced their earliest protest against your action ill barriut: the “F‘iliisliotl Mystery." the se\"viill. volume in u series of Scriplllre Stu- dies, together with the tract literal llre of their organization known as the “Bible Students’ l\Ionthly."

in our estimation the people oi' Can-

ANNOUNCEMENT
Mr. Alexander Horne in the firm known as Miller Bros., it is my intention to con- tinue the business under the same name. I take this opportunity of thanking the public for their past patronage and solicit ti continuation of same.
Or. account of the war, the cost of mus-
r-_~.l ilistl-unients has advanced so that it .ulld be impossible for us to oi’t'er‘ them at .l rcasollable price under our present sys- teln of long' credit. After this -date it is our intention to establish a ONE PRICE SYS'l`EM. All goods will be marked ill plain figures at the LOWEST CASH PRICE possible. The customer whopays cash had sl right to get the best value pos- sible for his money. The customer who buys on time has a right to pay for the accom-
_ modation. A ONE PRICE SYSTEM can
only be established by charging bank in- terest from date of sale. By curtailing every possible expense, and doing busi- ness at a closermargin of profit, we hope under a ONE PRICE SYSTEM to be able to sell as cheaply as any dealer in the same
