Hurrah for MORRAN'S boots and shoes that
will never wear out. Get pair and see how long
they will last OF his own manufacture and first
rate leathers-moroccos and kids. No workman
can excel him in neatness and strength of work and
prOmptness and despatch in attending to job.
Ifyou want your Christmas turkey stuffed with
oysters you can be supplied with the bivalves in
quantities to suit by MOORE BROOKS at the
restaurant in Sappington Hotel basement
How cheerful the glowing Goals in the CRATE, and
how cherries the hearthstone Without If you

Having the holiday season in view Capt AVIS
Bars supplied with best Mountain Dew" and
those who will indulge in such things by him can
be accommodated.
In these days of fun and frolic, when fast trot-
ters and sleighs are brought into requisition a
sharp lookout should be kept that trace or the
breeding don't break. To avoid such catastrO-
Plies call upon r. SHUGART who has excellent
harness of his own manufacture-none better-and
repairs breakages promptly.
WEIRICK d WELLER have had the enterprise
to 90 to work and build up fine large shop and
foundry, where they manufacture and repair plows,
harrows, drills, threshers, reapers-all sorts OF
farming implements, and are always in readiness
to attend to any business in their line.
1t will thus be seen by the foregoing that our
Merchants have in store

Like the Fabulous tale of Arabian dreams.
