wholesale trade extends over
wide scope of the surrounding
country. In addition to their drug
business they, some years ago
bought ont the book and stationery

dismayed to warn our comrades of

Thoughts too deep for tears"
Mrs. Rosenfield
having just moved into her estab-
lishment has some of her arrange
ments yet to complete. The general
plan of apartments is similar to that
above described. The store in front
is large and handsome apartment; ;
the fittings of which are cEaste and
elegant. The show window is of
a semi-octagon form enclosed with
immense sheets of the purest plate
glass, and constitutes the hand
soonest stone front in town. This
is occupied every day with a new
combination of feminine apparel,
showing every variety of symmet-
rical form, sumptious texture and
gorgeous combinations of color. The
decoration of this store is perfect
in taste and elaborate in execution
and reflects much credit upon the
enterprise of its proprietor and the
skill and taste of the artisans en-
ployed, among whom we may
mention the painters, Messrs. Tar
pley, Parish & Co., who have law
ished all the resources of their art
upon this establishment, and many
others which have arisen from the
ashes of our last April'S fire. We
may here mention that Mr.. Rosen-
field has been twice sufferer from
fire and deserves the sympathy of
his fellow citizens as well as as their
admiration of the energy and spirit
with which he battles with his mis-
fortunes. His family are now es-
tablished in the extensive and COM
modious apartments over the store.
He has adopted the right and only
method of ensuring success, that of
deserving it.
