the way, Resumptiou," with the crops
and prices it has brought us, is working
miracles in our city. White paint and
green shades appear on all sides. Bust
ness was never better since the year Of
1865. .b..
Among the ncw enterprises that have
opened up, the most noticeable is that Of
our new Boot and Shoe store. NJ X, Man
ley presides here, and does put before the
public the best assortment of boots and
shoes, Ladies and Misses wear, ever offered
in this city. His " Glove KidsP fine NOR
roccos, &C., at the prices he offers them,
cannot be exceled in the west. Itis use
less going to Toledo, thinking TO better
ones self with styles and prices. Mr.. Mm-
ley can always be found in his new and IL
dy store room, corner Of Main and Rushta-
boo streets.
Opposite to him, looms up our Hotel
| ID. Worth, proprietor, who will meet you
with smile and outstreched "paw," sug-
gestivo of Hospitality and pay. The Hall,
or second floor of tins esttb lislment, has
been kept warm during the late political
contest, and is now about To open ont with
series of balls and socials, for the cold
season near at hand.
Across Main street, and little south, is
the establishment of Mr.. ID. q. Bemis,
where boots and shoes are manufactured to
order, aud in any conceivable period of
| time. For instance, il So measures were
lett to-day, they would all be furnished
with their boots nert Week. We all know
what that means. But Dan" is good
fellow, and turns out A. MOL work. The
writer brides himself on possession OF the
| finest pair of boots, Of Dams manufacture,
that ever fell to his lot. think, ii re.
member correctly, il was when | was on
earth the first time the measure was left,
but got the boots all the same. If you
want good :" it," call on Dan.
Next door south, is the little brown
shop Of r. V. Slauson, who caters TO the
wants of this vicinity, in cumming and
| filing saws. Cumming" ! think, is his
best hold. Mr.. Sluuson belongs to the
Haskins band, and Is one of the best vio-
| linists in the west. lie Is also mmuidcttr-
er of violins, and lately turned ont the
sweetest instrument to be found in Ohio
| The sign over his door, is rather unique,
| yet tasty. 1t consists OF three capital "F's'
us follows: "F +. F." ~. Markle. !
What this means, other than Fat Funny
| Fellow, / can not divine. Go TO Rufus
if you want a good violin or a saw filed.
Around the corner, and further west, you
will find an establishment, this town and
vicinity could not do without. 1t is 4 re-
Gently enlarged and well ordered Black
smith and Machine shop. g. a. Repass,
our worthy Mayor, presides here and no
one need go away TO get the best job of shoe
setting by Burt;" nor need any proprie-
tor OF Threshing or Hulling Machines 60
to the Novelty Works OF Toledo for journ-
ais, pullies, or anything else necessary for
| their use We had tCo shops here until
recently, but Mr. Bnughman having re-
moved to Elmore, Ohio, leaves his many
| customers to Repass, who has found it nee
essary to enlarge his shop and employ
more workmen. The machinery depart
ment. and most Of the fine-toned work, is
presided over by Mr.. Joel Repass, the May
or's father, who is q natural genius, and an
exemplary gentleman.
We come back toward Main street, till
we strike Canal avenue, where is one of the
best Grocery and Provision stores in the
northwest,J e. Nufer, proprietor, Il sort of
German Yankee" who buys goods only
for the purpose of selling. Flies can't
buzz round his store with impunity. Mr..
Nufer keeps a complete assortment of gro
ceries and confectionery, with provisions
of every kind besides full line OF crock
ery, glass and stoneware, also line ol
Hardware that supplies the blacksmith
and farmer. He also has clocks looking
glasses and stationery. He is about NOV
ing his stock on the cast side Of Main ST.,
in the store building formerly occupied by
&. w. Nonnt. We prophecy for him a
lively and paying business. Indeed, the
r. r. Agent at this point, says Nufer'S
freight bills amount to more than all the
other stores and groceries together. e..
made one great mistake. In passing
from Mr.. Slawson, around the corner, |
skipped over the one " Bed Rock of thi:
town, viz: Mr. A. j. Wilson, who keep:
grocery and provision store on west side
of Main street. Mr.. Wilson is an "Old
Liner" in this town and vicinity, and is al
A. No. l man; always on hand to attend
to the wants of his customers, except wher
he closes his hope" and goes a fishing
When this occurs he usually leaves his es
timabe wife in charge of business, and
think never loses by the change. Mrs
Wilson is a lady of very decided character
and is as well qualified to attend upon the
, grocery, or any thing else she puts hel
hand to, as any member of our society. II
