MR. W. P. ROCHE'S EXCHANGE STORES.
The Exchange Stores is one of the oldest established businesses in Rylstone, and occupy one of the best positions in the town. The establishment is fully stocked with general merchandise, comprising drapery, grocery, ironmongery, boots and shoes, crockery, fancy goods, and produce. The business is now conducted by Mr. W. P. Roche, and is looked upon (especially by the ladies, who are the best judges) as one of the most up-to-date business places in the West. Mr. Roche also deals largely in produce and marsupial skins, and is generally spoken of as a "live" man of Rylstone1
