There Are No Patents on Merchandise Nor Mortgages on Manufactures All the gales of the business world are open to every one. The old freight stat ion of the Pennsylvania Railroad In Philadelphia, in which the New Kind of Store started, was for sale for two or three years in the eighteen seventies, and any one could have bought it who wanted to do so. Nowhere in the United States was there the kind of store we thoutrht of, nor one as large and far-reaching as the one we established there in the Centennial year.

The merchants of the city scoffed, sneered and made fun of it. Like a ship in shallow or unexplored waters, it had to be piloted through many difficulties to reach its present roomy, good harbor. We are now widening and improving the harbor of this business and we shall never cease to add to its facilities by making the best use of the same opportunity, open to every one who will expend his energies and experiences for a public that is as generous as New York and Philadelphia are to us. this borough, hut now of South Mrs. 0.
