Next seeking style and show in dress
Ending with HAIR for comeliness.
Chiefly for the information Of our
lady readers-though probably with
some degree ofinterest to many of
the sterner sex-we have long desir-
ed an opportunity to refer to the
important business Of our highly es-
teemed friends,
j. G. & E. B. PAINE.
OF 16l, Summit street, Toledo, whose
established and extensive trade in
artificial hair-wholesale and retail
AS also the manufacture of hair
work, generally, has rendered their
name as familiar as household words.
So far back as 1S57-when society
was equally given to chairs" as in
these days-it suggested itself to
the PAINE Bros, that the csprices
offashion and the growing impor
tance of Toledo, as city, would un-
doubtedly warrant them in embark
ing in business, which they did, at
t9lk California Row, and it took but
a comparatively short time to con.
vince them that their enterprise was
destined to become a success. Bus
mess prospered, and nothing trans
pired to mar "the even tenor of their
ways" up to 1852, when Mr.. Z
Paine, retired, and Mr.. j. G. "buck
led to the wheel" single handed
removed to the present address, 161
Summit street, and conducted the
business with unerrlng diligence to
1865, when E. B. Paine associated
with the house, and to this day the
trade has continued to prosper, and
still 6ourishes, under the style OF
j. G. Il. E. B. PAINE. Their pres
ent store, 130 25 it., is admirably
fitted, presenting one scene of glass
cases containing the better grades
ofstock, while in other parts, sus
pended on lines arc. the middle and
more inferior grades. Everything
is arranged in the most orderly and
systematic manner, while the ganer-
al appearance and cleanliness Of the
store we presume to reflect largely
tothe credit Of the lady, assistants

teous attention upon customers.
The impression made first upon Wis
itors is the endless variety Of the
stock-its magnitude and charming
effects. Whether in the rares,
shades or textures of hair it is de
sired to obtain curls, braids, switch
es, crepps, rolls, coils or twists, there
is everything there in fact, an as
sortment rarely equalled in nortl
western Ohio. Nor are the occa
