Beautiful! Cheap!

You don't say so! And only five dollars a pair! Oh my! Every up-start in town will—wash? Of course they will—Ask Father if they don't.

Come down Same—you ought to see Mother's new shawl. Only four yards in the vamps, all French calf cut bias, two rows of buttons around—the shop full of customers—more of the same pattern—Next Sunday at Church—Father got enought to make a pair of the hoopskirts, twenty springs, all in the Madame Demorest's style of new stockings—Low neck and short sleeves—and such beautiful tops made of any color and bottoms to match.

But say did you know that W.M. Dawson always keeps on hand the best assortment of calf skins, and makes work in the latest and most fashionable style? If you are not aware of the fact, ask any of his numerous customers or friends, or call at his shop on the Main street two doors east of the Drug Store, and satisfy yourself.

The subscriber takes this means of returning thanks for the past liberal patronage received at the hands of his friends and respectfully solicits their future encouragement, assuring one and all that he will do all in his power to give satisfaction.
