Sullivan Hardware Co. have a regular Wnolesale Department, ?nd since opening same tUeir trade has increased in volume very rapidly, la this Bge of sharp competi tion, uiercbants are looking more closely after prlcec, aod thoy are finding that they can buy at wholesale Irom this bouse cheaper than by sending their orders ?way from home and paying freights. Tbe reason for this is that the Sullivan Hardware Co. are always wideawake aud ranko contracts ahead with the manufac turer direct; besides they employ a resi dent buyer in I w York, with branch ollices in other ernes, who keep in touch witb all large factories, which gives this hou^e the advantage of knowing just where their spot caab orders will oba.in the lowest prices. It 1B much more satis factory for merohants to buy in a home market when they can save mouey bv do ing so, and that ia what Sullivan Hard ware Co. propose to do for their trade. Anythiug in the Hardware line can ba bought from them as low, often muoh lower, than the same class of gooda are offered by other wholesale houses.
