Are we to be, ot not to be,
n part of the Great Republic,
seems to be the burning ques
tion of the clay, and one we
had rather leave to wiser heads
than ours to solve; and while
great statesmen are wrestling
with this momentous question,
we want to have a little "kkv-
vo-iV witn you on some otlier
subjects, that concern you as
well as ourselves.
lias it not occurred to you
that you've been wearing that
old hat long enough ! In these
progressive times if you intend
to be "in it," you've got to keep
pace with fashion. No matter
how otherwise well dressed
you may be, unless your hat is
the correct thine: vou bear a
shabby appearance.
We have already laid in a
stock of the Latest Hats of the
Htm Spring and Summer
styles, in hard felts, soft felt
and straws, and including a line
of the celebrated " Fidora'
Hats, at present all the rage in
the United States. There is
therefore, no necessity for you
to hang on any longer to that
old Tile that bears such
strong resemblance to the hat
" your father wore."
Believing that business wil
be better in the near future, we
have not hesitated to keep our
stock full in all lines. Take
collars for instance : We have
almost everything you could
wish for. I f yon wear a stand
ing collar, just come in and
take a look at our " Narenta"
or "Ardonia ;" or if you prefer
a turn clown collar, try the
"Winnipeg" or "Goswell;" we
have have lots of others, and
can't fail to suit you. Cuffs in
abundance, links or otherwise.
I
Neckwear in profusion, scarfs
Windsors 4 -in -hands, and a
special lot of " Boys' Bows;"
suspenders in great variety,
leather and woven ends, good
strong, serviceable goods.
We might go on indefinitely,
but space is valuable, and to
enumerate everything we carry
would fill a pretty fair sized
Book. If there is anything
you want in the men's line,
just drop in and see us, and if
we can't suit you, we don't be
lieve any one can.
If you should want a pair of
nice shoes, let us try a hand at
httino; you. Did it ever occur
to you
How much a man is like his shoes;
For instance, both a soul may lose. -.
Both have been tanned; Both are made
tight by Cobblers; v
Both get left and right,"
Both need a mate to be complete;
And both are made to go on feet.
They both need healing; oft arc sold,
And both in time will turn to mould.
With shoes the last is first; with men
The first shall be the last; and when
The shoes wear out, they're mended
new;
When men wear out, they're men dead
too.
They both are trod upon, and both
Will tread on others nothing loth.
Both have their ties, and both incline
When polished, in the world to shine;
And both peg out, Now would you
choose
To be a man, or be his shoes.

New Ideas!
A merchant is nowhere
unless abreast of the times.
We have gotten several
new ideas through the ob
servation of Mr. T. J.
King, while on the coast
and we propose not only
to profit by them ourselves
but to give our customers
the benefit of the low
prices that shall henceforth
prevail in our establish
ment. As time rolls on, we
shall gradually unfold our
new ideas to the mutual
benefit of our customers
and ourselves.
Call and be convinced
of the sincerity of our
propositions.
