a New Advertisemeut

We like enterprise, energy and go-aheaditiyeness
in any legitimate business. 1t is through the iniu
ence of such business men, that cities are built and
made to grow and prosper. Our friend, r. Simmons
in connection with the Dry Goods Business, which
he has carried on so acceptably to his many Gus
toners, as well as successfully to himself, has
opened in the south store ofSmmons Hall Block, a
MANN 9th stock of Groceries and Provisions, all
new and fresh. His stock of staple and Fancy Gro.
ceries, has been surpassed in this city, and
will compare favorably with any similar establish
on this shore ofthe Lake. The Basement has been
fitted up especially for the Butter Trade which he
proposes to make specially, both buying and
selling. Farmers and Dairymen who have extra
nice butter should always go to Simmons, with it
Mr.. CALKINs who has been so long and favorably
known with Messrs. Slosson & Co., will preside in
his department and in this branch of trade he is at
home.
