When you order a sack of patent flour from your grocer, do not tell him to send you "a sack of good flour", but tell him to send you a sack of "Clifton," because "Clifton" is the best patent. Every sack is sold with this guarantee, and if it does not. prove as represented, your money will be refunded. "Clifton" is an all-round flour, and is as good for cake and pastry as light rolls and bis cuit. T. J. H AYs. Do you want one of the prettiest and most stylish Hlats in town this season?
