There is no business in Sacramento
which illustrates more strongly the ad-
vantages in the market than that pre-
sented by Ackerman & Co. The house
began here in very simple way and is
now one Of the most extensive in interior
California. Its manager is Mr.. Block. 1t
makes speciality of all grades and kinds
of crockery and crystal wares, and also of
all the fine and finished crockeryware
known to ceramic and decorative art, to
which 80 much attention just now is being
attracted OF white goods Alderman &
90. import directly the make of Charles
Meakin Burslen, England, which house
turns out the best goods known to the
trade, and also keeps the new pattern
Of notable beauty called the DERBY"
All the usual brands of white goods are
also imported by Alderman & Co. In
decorated toiletware the house imports
from Thos Furnival & Sons, Staffordshire,
England, class of goods which has no
superior in style, art, work or durability.
Pearl porcelain, which is a true imita-
ton of French china, is brought from
the establishment of John Edwards,
Staffordshire, for whose goods Alderman s.
60. are the sole agents for the Pacific coast
French china is imported from the factory
of Havland & Co., Limoges, France.
Glassware is imported from all the large
and approved manufactures of Pittsburg,
Wheeling, Boston, Philadelphia and Bel
laire. Silver-plated ware is had direct
from the Rogers Bros works, West Meri-
den, Conn, and these goods have no supe-
rior in the markets of the day, either as to
wear, artistic design or richness of finish.
Table cutlery Ackerman & Co. have from
John Russell L Co. factory, Green River
Falls, Mass. American cutlery, and espe.
cially this brand, has no superior, the En-
glish cutlery SO long ranking first no longer
occupying that position. In the line of
toys there is no house outside of San Fran
cisco which keeps such varied and extern
sive stock. Toilet goods, show case goods,
goods especially fitted for friendships gifts,
goods in Russia leather, In the new crinkle
ware, in willow, in wood, in silver, in stat
uary, in Parian marble. in Bisque, IN Dres-
den, in Palissy, majolica and other orna-
mental goods of rare workmanship of art.
Also, in carving, bracket and scroll work.
The stock in this respect is not equaled IN
all the interior, and Is constantly kept up
by daily receipts from the best European
and American depots of supply and manu-
facture Mirrors, lamp stock, etc, are OF
course included in the crockery and glass
ware department, and are kept in full
stock and of all approved brands. The es-
Enlistment of Alderman & Co. covers a
great area. The main store-room is 40 by
l20 feet, and the firm also occupies five
basement stories for goods in bulk. The
house enjoys all the economic advantages
of the Sacramento market. Can fill or
ders two days IN advance of San Fran
cisco; is not fettered by the invest
ment of a large amount of fixed capital,
makes no charges for packing or drayage,
has great trade in the central and north
ern part of the State, and deals also largely
in Nevada, Utah and Idaho. 1t must
suffice to say that it offers superior induce
ments to all the interior trade of CalifOr
MIA and the transmontane business. Its
importations are from first hand. The To-
cation, methods of doing business and ad
vantages of the market enable the firm tc
deal at lower rate of profit, and the re
suit is a gain to the buyers, which they
are generally availing of throughout th'
State and adjacent Territories.

This is the largest exclusively CROKER,
and glassware house in Sacramento, anC
occupies one of the most spacious store
rooms in the city. This house was estab
hshed in 1852, and claims, with eviden
business, to be the pioneer house in thu
business. 1t alleges that it can sell tel
per cent. cheaper in all lines of imported
stock than San Francisco houses in Ek
business. This establishment makes NJ
charge for packing or drayage, and on non
of its packages is there any wharfage o
like charge to the purchaser. The chic
lines are all kinds of American and Euro
pean crockery and glassware, cutlery an
plated ware, and the usual variety of shell
goods Working with a small fixed capital
buying direct from manufacturers at HON
and abroad, transporting almost entirel
by rail- selling at small margins of profit
and with rapid transactions, the house
enabled to offer to the interior advantage
that few Others can. There is needed n
further statement as to these advantages
