tbo result, ami to this day it occasionally
happens that tbo thawing of
a mass of ico by tbo short summer's
sun rovoals tho carcass of ono of tbo
gigantio beasts, its moat still frosh
enough to bo fed to dogs. Such a
thing occurred in 1799. Tho mounted
skeleton is now in tbo Imperial museum

was a small ono, comparatively ;

When tbo Siberian natives had

I Horace Greely I
We believe whs the author/of this plain but
truthful saying:
"iW can J(*>I some people all (he lime; you can
r 1 _n
Jool all the People SOtHC time; fall you cant jooi ail i
I he people all I he time."
These words of the great Philanthropist are
applicable to the many methods practiced no-wadays
by some merchants who throw out small
"catch-penny" baits at and below actual cost of
i production, in order to try and give the impresi
simi that tlwv sell everv article just as cheap, -*
j " *" - O
But beware! Such is not the
i
j ease! -This same Horace also ra
marked: \
I 77/g/ reyrv art tide of merchandise
should bear its Ugitimatcsha re cj pro jit.
Now wc arc not doing business like they did
in Horace's day and time, but we arc selling
every article at One CLOSE. Legitimate
Price, undercharging or overcharging 011 nothing.
