ton to enjoy this season the most delicious !.
Strawberries that have appeared in our market. n
Now instead Of purchasing on market days the r
quantity We may desire, and running the risk M
Of having them spoil on our hands, we can 10
procure them fresh every day and OF the best q
quality. All have experienced the inconveni- W
lnce, not to say modification, Of having friends 70
drop in on us on the Z" off days." when the "
arder was empty and no opportunity offered to W
replenish iii but as things are now, owing TO W
the enterprise and energy of our fellow towns IA
man, MIR. VIM. d. Wharton, formerly of the &C
i' Delaware Democrat" we shall have no q
more complaints Of not being able to get any Of p
the good things of tho season, and our friends y
may call on us ever so unexpectedly, yet shall ~
we be ready to receive them and feast them i,
for II is only necessary for us to send ut any 4,
hour Of the day, to his store, No. 100, in b.
Market street, Arcade Row, and supply our VI
selves with the choice fruit of Kent and Sussex tn
counties, which have heretofore found mar co
ket in Philadelphia.
II is the intention OF Mr.. Wharton to " keep ~
the ball rolling" and have every kind of fruit ~
during the season, and we ought to sustain M
him in this laudable enterprise, by literally ii
his store, and thus enable him pl
to carry out fully his plans in the matter. We re
presume it is not generally known that this ar Sc
has been made, for only day or w
Two ago, lady who had just been informed of ~ ~
the fact, said-'s D won't that be convenient, nt
Tor now we can have an abundance of fruit q,
without waiting for market days" So look ar
put for fine fruits at VIM. ID. Wharton store, NJ
