4 New Enterprise in Rutland,

n NeW enterprise IN Rutland.
Our village has many retail stores of
| every description. Merchants Row and
Center street are lined with them. They
arc just what every thriving town must
have, and of which Rutland may well be
| proud. Her business men, who are the pro-
| prctOrs of these houses, are among our best
| citizens, and deserve the confidence and
patronage of the entire community.
In connection with the ietail business of
| our town, new enterprise has just been
| started at 90 Merchants Row which de-
serves the especial attention of the public,
| and to which we desire at this time to no
tice more fully than heretofore. A brief
| look at the :" 90 cent store cannot fail To
| impress the observer with wonder and adj
| miIation. The simple idea of selling those
| goods, of which the stock is composed, at
| theinslgnliicant price of nincty-ninc cents
is something never before thought of in this
region, and attracts the attention of every
| person.
This store is to be permanent institution
in our midst, as its proprietors have, after
long experience in the business, become
satisfied with small profits, and are filled
with the idea of pleasing the public at all
hazards. This they cannot help accom-
plishing with any of the articles they offer
for sale The goods are all ne,o, never hay
ing been opened to the public until brought
here few days ago. The proprietors man.
ufacture or import all their goods, and
Know Just what they are selling.
On yesterday the store was opened to
public inspection and patronage, and all
day long it was filled with the curious OBJ
server, each Of whom was shown through
the store by the ladies and gentlemen who
attend to the wants of customers. no mat
ter whether they wish TO buy or not. All
will find the very best attention from be-
hind the counter.
The stock is one of great variety, most
OF which comes under the head of House
Ornamental Goods, among them a large
stock of oil paintings, steel engravings and
chromos, which are elegant in design. well
mounted, and make fine picture in every
particular Then there are large assort-
ment of walnut ornaments, such as heavy
brackets, pockets and the like, which will
stand the closest inspection and are sold for
far more than the price asked at this store.
Another of the most attractive stock of
articles is that of ornamental glass goods of
the German imported ware, Bohemian
style. The stock of books comprise the
best authors, such as the works of Shaks-
peare, sold elsewhere for 50 90; the poems
OF Whittier and Longfelew, diamond edi-
ton, also autograph and photograph al
buns of new and unique patterns, ele-
gantly bound and strongly made. Then
the stock of jcwelry consists of solid gold
rings, Masonic and other emblem pins,
solitaire pins, coral sets Tor ladies. guard
chains and other varieties. Then there is
splendid assortment of silvcr-plated ware
spoons, forks, knives. napkin rings, etc;
also fine steel cutlery of every description.
The approaching holidays will find the
'Boston % cent store" the deSideratupa of
all, Tor here is found holiday goods for
every purchaser; the games for children,
fancy dolls, toys, etc, will meet the wants
of all classes.
The proprietors announce in their circu-
lar that all goods sold at their establish
lishment are warranted to be exactly as
represented, if not, the money will be re-
funded. So we see no chance for fraud.
and from what we learn from those who
are well acquainted, the proprletors are
men whose word can be relied on
