The" Old Variety" blooms forth this year with
avigor and beauty that shows uncle Gabriel has
put his years of experience to good use. He
spent about three weeks at the North, and the

JAS. E. TAYLOR.
A glance at Taylor's confectionery and toy
store seems like glimpse at Fairyland. Such
an endless array of amusement for children
was scarcely ever condensed in so much space.
The shelves are made to do double duty and
seem almost broken with their weight of
childish wealth. Not only in toys does this es-
Establishment claim special attention but in can
dies, fruits, nuts, mincemeat, canned goods &C.,
is it abundantly supplied Everything is fresh
and new, and nothing seems to be wanting TO
make the assortment absolutely complete.
GEO. W. NAY & co.
have their show cases filled with novel and
beautiful assortment, embracing elegant toilet
sets, handsome celluloid ware, velvet goods
and superb line of Christmas gifts of all des-
criptons. There is scarcely anything that
could be imagined suitable for Christmas
present that cannot be here found, and to the
ladies especially is an invitation given. Fem
mime fancy would be delicate indeed if it
could not be gratifed in contemplating the
contents of May Is Co.'S. show cases, and
purses would be exceedingly slender that could
not afford to purchase

think of any article that cannot theresbe seen.

Our citizens viii find themselves well repaid
for their trouble if in making their purchases
they will so little out of their way to find
the store of Mr.. J. H. Picker on North Au-
gusta street. A splendid line of glass goods,
Kaolo, Majolica and other ware in beautiful
designs can there be seen, whilst his assort
ment of china is something rare No place
offers more attractions to the present buyer
than does this, and we repeat that it will well
repay all to give Mr. Picker a call.
