Th e com m and being given, the itemizer donned h a t'and coat and sallied forth upon his mission. T h e first place visited was the auction and comm ission store of WALDO AND NEASM 1 TH. These gentlem en have recently en gaged in business and have a Stock consisting of harnesses, robes, cut ters and whips, that, will bear in spection.

T h e stock is so full and com p lete tin t it is al iiost an impos sibility to give it the notice which it should have. T h e stock for ele gance far surpasses any which they have shown in former years and must be seen to be appreciated. After leaving the drug store of Shaw & Stiles a close inspection was given .0 the stock in the store of E N. STONE.
