Among the many recent tokens OF business
success in this city, VIC notice with peculiar
pleasure the enlargements aud improvements
Of the fine establishment of Messrs. Smith d
Dwyer, wholesale merchants and dealers in
drugs and medicines, an old and well cstab-
1shed firm, who, By long and well directed
efforts and close attention to business, have
built up the structure Of q business already |
large and constantly increasing. This in
crease has rendered IN enlargement Of their |
store and salesrooms absolutely necessary.
One of the Improvements that have been
made By the firm is the addition OF another
firstrclass store, in which all the wholesale
custom is supplied; this is the adjoining
store On Lake street, and it gives them a front
on Lake street Opposite the fremont House,
| offorty feet, and On Dearborn street Of ninety
| ftet. They occupy the entire basement under
the whole building, and also all the upper
| stories. Thus they have room enough for an
almost unlimited stock Of goods.
From casual inspection Of their stock just
received, We do not hesitate to say TINT it is
as large and good one Is was ever Brought to
this city. It embraces every article or drug
known to the trade; and all have been select
ed by one Of the firm with the utmost care and
Judgment
There has never been displayed in this city
larger OF more elegant assortment Of toilet
articles than is now to be seen at Smith &
Dw3cr's. French, English and American per-
tume1ies, foreign and domestic fancy soaps Of
all kinds, are displayed by them In the great
est variety and richness. With such enter
prise, skill and judgment as this house mani
tests, it is certain to be more than eyer popu-
lar and successful
