O. R. Keith and Company,

The great Chicago Fancy Dry Goods and Millinery house, opened the fall trade with full lines of Millinery Goods, Notions, White Goods, Hosiery, Yarns. Woolens, Flannels, Cloaks, Shawls, etc., with full lines of Domestic Dry Goods added. Each new d sparture has brought a great increase of trade, and their sales for August,lßß2, have doubled those of August, 1881. The house is well known wherever Chicago trade reaches, and has the confidence of the public in an unusual degree. Its salesmen are all instructed to represent their goods truthfully. It purchases for cash, and its large sales enable it to sell at bed-rock prices. Any prominent Chicago business house if asked which is the leading house in these lines would answer, O. B. Keith & Company. “Porter’s crossing!” screamed a brakeman on the Michigan Central railroad as he put his head in the passenger car. “ Well, what if he is?” snapped an old lady, tartly. “I don’t see any sense in making such a fuss about it;” and she muttered something about folks minding other folks’ business, while the tired passengers smiled audibly among themselves. — Detroit Post.
