HAIR WORK AND FANCY GOODS.
One of the principal attractions in tbt
east end Of the gallery, is the upright show
case of Jos. L. LOiseau & Co., in which Is
displayed elegant hair jewelIy, wigs of va
riOus kinds, fancy articles, and human hail
Of almost every shade. LOiseau & Co. are
the only manufacturers Of hai- jewelry in
the city, and they have the reputation OF
turning out work, equal in every respect tC
any hair jewelry made in the country.
They have attained great success in thi:
branch Of business, and have given unqual-
flied satisfaction TO all who have favored
them with orders for work. In the manu-
facture of wigs, this firm probably has no
superior. Their work speaks for itself, and
the hundreds who have had occasion 10 Sc
cure their services IN this department can
testify to the skill displayed. As men Of
public enterprise, it is appropriate to men
ton the fact that they have never allowed
a Fair CT Exposition 90 by without making
a full display Of their goods, and in no in
stance, we are informed, have they failed
to win the award for superiority over al
competitors. They have lately fitted up a
room in connection with their store at No.
% North Cherry street, for the especial &C
commodatiOn of ladies, and have engaged the
services Of Monsieur Augnste, from Paris,
a ladies' French hair dresser, who will wait
on all who may favor him with a call. This
is a long-felt want in Nashville, and will
doubtless prove a great success. Ladies
who save their combines can have them
Strengthened out and made to look as good
as new by leaving them at No. D North
Cherry street, where hair work Of every de-
scriptiOn is manufactured and perfect salts
faction guaranteed.
