Ce tike hd T IS A FIRST-RATE PLACE TO BE, and as we undoubt- edly possess the ability to keep ahead, we can afford to lend a helping hand to our numerous struggling c:mpetitors. As’ we have attained to the proud position we now enjoy as leaders in our art, through years of toil and hard work, we would say to our competitors, DON’T BE DISCOURAGED. Step by step, if you persevere, perchance may find you approaching our pre- sent standard. BUT REMEMBER! you will not find us there. Perfecti n is our Standard, and nothing short of that will satisfy our ambition to present a faultless garment upon a faultless gentleman.

To supplement our own natural skill, we employ artists who acknowledge no superiors in the Dominion of Canada. Thus equipped with superior heads and unequalled hands, and Goods of the finest quality, we feel safe in saying that we are prepared t» fill the bill every time.

A_FickLe Pspestrian. —Geo. Cartwright, the English pedestrian, who was a contestant in the recent walk at Madison Square Garden, New York, was to have been married to a youug Saratoga lady on Wednesday last. He did not materialize at the appointed time, anda subsequent investigation revealed the fact that he has a wife and family in England. A brother of the jilted bride was looking for| the Knglishman with a gun, and on Saturday |

he took asteamer for home to escape the angry relatives. ~_ eee | CoLp.—Duving the recent cold snap a good! r |

joke was perpetrated on one of our civil ser vice officials. Entering a well-known book store he announced the fact of the weather being ‘‘awfully cold,” and enquired for the record—per thermometer. _ The proprietor could not give a positive reply, but handed} the official a thermometer which lacked the necessary mercury, requesting him to stand outside the door and ascertain for himself. After waiting about half an hour for the bloomin’ mercury to drop he- discovered the joke and returned the instrument in a rather summary manner. ieatiiies Xmas Tree.--On the evenings of the 19th and 20th of December, the Sisters of the Con-

i Hicn Licensz.—From an exchange we learn that high license and the reduction of

the number of saloons appear tohave work- ed well in Philadelphia. There are now 1300 places where liquor is sold in that city, which claims to have nearly a million inhabitants. This reductionfrom the 6,000 or more that existed prior to June, 1887, is said to have been beneficial in many ways. There are less arrests and eommit- tients to prison than under the old law, and a more general observance of the laws. These facts have impressed themselves upen the minds of the judges, and if they can keep the number of saloons within 1.000, they wiil do it the coming year. o

George W. Childs, of Philadelphia, possesses the original manuscript of Dicken ‘*Our Mutual Friend.” It is the only manuscript of Dickens, with the exception of a few short stories, outside of the South Kensington Museum. Mr. Childs has refused $6,000 for it.

Mrs. O, C. Converse, of Waterbury, Conn, now nearly 80 years of age, is remarkably proud ef the fact that years ago, when a school teacher in the West, she had two pupils who became famous. In South Bend, Ind., she taught little Renny Harrisvn his let- ters. One fall in Ohio a sudden cold snap troze a cana] near her schoo!-house, and some boats were caught and held there several weeks. A boy who drove for one of the boats came to her school. He was 14 years old and the boys called him Jim Garfield,

The legal and commercial exchange of Canada, having gflices in Montreal, Tor- onto, Hamilton, and London, England, have issued the following circular to sub scribers: ‘*‘Reports from eur agents throughout the Province of - Quebec warn us of fears prevalent that there may soon bea good many’ failures among retail dry goods, clothing and furs. “The weather has been so inclement for some months past that stocks have been almost unsaleable and settlements difficult. We are advised that many of these merchants are privately obtaining indulgencies from their chief creditors for the universal reasons given We would therefore respectfully suggest chat extreme caution be exercised in dispensing credit, and only after full and thorough inquiry into the position of each buyer.
