AN ELEGANT STocK. The estab-
lishment of Messrs. Raphael Kahn &
Co., Shreveport, is now one of the most
attractive places in that city to the la
dies. Their stock of staple and fancy
dry goods is superb and is the admira-
ton of their visitors, as, are their low
prices. Their stock of clothing and
shoes is complete, and their line of car
pet goods is unrivalled. IA q 81,
A KAHN & Co.-This firm, which
keeps the only exclusive house-furnish-
ing establishment in the place, has on
sale one of the very finest and largest
stocks of crockery, glassware, cutlery,
stoves, tinware-in short all articles
embraced in the house-furnishing bus
mess, ever offered in this market.
Their prices are as low as those of any
similar establishments the Southwest.
They are also the sole agents in
Shreveport for the sale of the famous
Charter Oak Stoves, with all the late
improvements, which they are offering
at reduced prices.
REMovAL.-Mr. John Caldwell
having disposed of his lower stable,
corner of Texas and Edwards streets,
Shreveport, La, will concentrate all
his time and talentn upon the Eclipse
Stables located farther up on Texas
street and near the middle of the block.
He proposes to make these stables a
regular "Horse Palace" at the mere
sight of which animals of the equine
persuasion will neigh their apprecia-
ton and delight. Fine saddle and
harness horses, fine buggies and car
riages and hearses, will be his pro-
gramme, and he is determined, by
strict attention to man and beast and
business generally, to win for his board
ing house and stables a yet higher
niche in the temple of fame. f
