SECOND EDITION
TOYS FOR THE MILLION.
ADAMS a. Bros Great AssOrtmept .
Toys and Fancy Goods.

Adams q Bros Great Assortment of
Toys and Fancy Goods.
Year by year, Adams g. Bro, No.
QUO Market street, have been extending
the toy and fancy goods department of
thelr business, until they now have the
largest wholesale and retail toy house
between Philadelphia and Baltimore.
and an establishment as large as any
OF the toy houses in either of these
two cities.
This year their stock is unusually
large, and embraces all the multitude
nous articles of foreign and domestic
toys. In dolls, their assortment is su-
perb, including all styles and sizes,
from the minute China baby to the
large waxen German beauties, with
delicately tinted complexion and hair
growing naturally from well shaped
heads. The prices askel for these in
animate members of the baby kingdom
are unusually low.
Of course it is impossible to enumer.
ate all the various articles which
Messrs. Adams g. Bro. have for sale.
but the people are heartily invited to
call and lock for themselves. The
large room In the second story of Fer.
ris 81 CARROTS building, No. 5O4 Mar.
ket street, is used as a toy department
and here can be found every article of
amusement which the juvenile heart
could desire. Tool chests, furniture,
musical instruments, sleds, hobby
horses, and thousands of other TOYS are
here displayed, and marked at prices
which bring them within the reach of
all.
Messrs. Adams & Bro, within the
last six years, have built up "a toy
trade that is not surpassed by any one
store in Philadelphia. They are now,
and have been. for years, wholesaling
toys in every town and village in the
State, and their trade extends in Mary
laud, Virginia and away down tc
Georgia. Just think, five wears az,
you could not buy $50 worth of toy.
in Wilmington, while now you car
buy from 500 to 81 900 worth, and a
prices as low as they can be purchased
for anywhere In the United States.
Mcssrs. Adams s. Bro. are direct i'm
porters of their goods, which are pur
chased in Germany and France, an,
!; are not opened until they arrive here
, Therefore they have the same advan
) tage as any toy house in the country
They buy all domestic goods direc
from the manufacturers, and sell ri
; the list with the same discount. Th
. advantage to buyers is, in the frs
place, the difference in freight an,
r travelling expenses, and at the sam
| time Just as large an assortment to 81
q lect from.
g Therefore, all who wish to buy toy
9 and fancy goods, should not vast
), money in going to Philadelphia, b,
should buy of Adams S Bro, withol
delay.

Shipping Wheat West.

A curious circumstance, which we no.
tice as taking place in Ohio. is the impor-
State, to enable their millers to make
good -four of Ohio grown wheat of the
present season. 1t is notably the fact
that Western wheat is, this season, poor
in quality, owing to wet weather during
the harvest season. The lowest averages
in Western States are Illinois, Indiana,
Ohio, Kentucky and West Virginia also
give low averages. This does not, how
ever. mean less bread, but that of poorer
quality than usual. The wheat of the
best quality is, this year, said to be that
of the New England States, Delaware
Maryland, the South and the Pacific
coast

How many wretched homes in our

Life with many signifies mere onerous
existence. All are subject to disease,
but when health is removed the hope is
nearly gone out. Sickness Is usually in
CURED through exposure or carelessness.
Especially Is this true with those dis
eases peculiar to women. Through her
own imprudence an folly she is made
to drag out a miserable existeuce-a
source of annoyance and anxiety to her
friends, and anything but comfort and
pleasure to herself. Exposure to the
cold at times when she could be most
prudent, and overtaxing her body with
laoorious employment, are both fruitful
causes OF many of the u.aladies from
which she suffers. Gradually the bloom
leaves her cheeks, her lips grow ashy
white, her vivacity departs, she contin-
ually experiences feeling of WEAKNESS
and general languor, and altogether pre-
sents ghostly appearance. What does
she need! Should she take some stimu-
iatins drug, which will for the time make
her Jeet better" or does her entire sys-
tenn demand reparatlon? She requires
something which Eot only will restore to
health the diseased organs, but will tone
and invigorxte the system. DR.. Pierce 8
Favorite Prescription will do this. 1t
inparts strength to the diseased parts,
brings back the glow of health, and re-
stores comfort where previously there
was only suffering.
Every invalid lady should send for
