BUTT, DePUE & co.
A Live Firm and Growing
Business

In no branch of the wholesale trade
has there been q more marked in
crease than in the wholesale stove
and tinware business, and the above
named firm leads in East Tennessee.
You can go into the establishment of
Messrs. Butt, DePue & Co. at any
hour of any day in the week, and you
will find every member of the firm
just as busy as he can possibly be,
and not alone the heads of the house,
but several energetic statesmen. They
have extended their business until
now it extends almost over the entire
south, especially so in some of their
specialties, for instance their patent
Jacket Can, more useful article than
which has never been invented. They
keep constantly employed large
force of competent workmen and
manufacture plain tinware, while the
pressed ware is kept in abundance.
They also have number of workmen
for plain and ornamented cornice
work, and can point with pride to
many beautiful specimens of their
work in this line in this city. Their
stock of stoves is the largest ever
carried by any house in East Tennes-
see, comprising everything from the
cheapest step stove to the finest
range and at prices to defy competi-
ton. They are always ready for
roofing. and guttering or any other
outside job work, and always give
satisfaction. In fact if you want
anything that should be found in a
first class stove and tin house do not
fail to give Butt, DePue & Co. call,
and our word for it you will not be
disappointed. They have also added
plumbing and gas fitting to their
other work and have employed q
number one workman for this speci-
atty. Taking it all in all, it is one of
our most enterprising firms, and they
richly deserve the success they are
meeting with. Enterprise, push, fair
dealing and liberal use of printers
ink will always tell, as the above
named firm is an exemplifcation. Give
them call.

A FASHIONABLE RESORT
ThrOnged Every Day with Gus
toners.

In our travels up and down Gay
street we have noticed with pleasure
that Mr.. FL. j. Owens Dry Goods
and Millinery establishment is always
crowded with customers, and after
taking a look through their estab-
hshment we are not at all surprised
to see this. A handsomer and bet-
ter selected stock of goods would be
hard to find. We dare not at
tempt to enumerate all the
handsome articles in his
line we noticed, for if we did we
would have to devote all of our
space to his store alone, and we have
many other friends to mention, but
suffice it to say that lady can find
almost any article she may need, of
the finest material and the lowest
price at which such goods can be
sold. A word for his milinary de-
partment. Mrs. Owens made the
selection in person, and has brought
with her lady to take charge of the
same, who can not be surpassed in
the art of trimming a lady's hat or
work of that kind. This is indeed
an art only few are possessed of, and
this lady stands at the head of the
list. Call and examine some of her
work. Mr.. Owens regrets very much
that his room is so small and he is
working all the assistants he can
possibly work, and assures his lady
friends that when they call they
shall have as prompt attention as
possible. Mr.. Owens, his estimable
lady, and pleasing accommodating
assistants, do all in their power to
make it pleasant for their customers,
and this is one secret of their suc-
cess. His establishment is certainly
a pleasant place to do shopping, and
we would advise our lady readers to
give him call.

nice for your Christmas dinner, go

tioneries for Christmas parties, Sun
day school Christmas trees, school
exhibitions, sociables-in fact, to all
parties buying in any considerable
quantity. All are invited to call and
see them, young and old, rich OF

able feature in the fact that all are
treated alike, for the poor mans

ness as the rich mans dollar will
gain for him. Their stock for the
holidays is well-selected, and parties
out laying in their Christmas sup
plies should not fail to give them a
call

KING AND QUEEN COMBINED
The Crown Sewing Machine Leads
the World.
Five Dozen Sold in one Day by Mr..
Maskall.

Mr.. G. f. Maskall, one of the pio-
neers in the sewing machine business
in this city, and who has handled
many different kinds of machines,
has at last dropped upon machine
which simply sells itself. He says he
has never seen the like before, and
business is on ''boom" with him
now. The reason for this is that it
has claims to many superiorities over
all other machines. 1t combines all
the talking and selling points of all
the other machines. It is claimed to
be unquestionably the most satisfy
ing machine ever put on the market.
It embodies the results of twenty
five years experience and experiment.
of other makers, and has all the con-
veniences and good points of all the
popular machines of the day. Most
other machines have good poiuts, but
it is claimed that the Crown, as a
whole, is better than any particular
one of them, from the fact that it is
largely made up by combining in it
self the best features of all good ma
chimes. Thus by taking the essence
of the worlds experience, and by ad-
ding some new features, entirely their
own, and which experts everywhere
consider to be marvels of simplicity
and perfection, it does seem that their
claim that the 'Crown" is the best
machine yet produced, and that it
possesses the merits of all without the
defections of any, is well taken. Be
sides, it is one of the handsomest ma
chimes built, and proves an ornament
in house. It's noiseless, light run
ming, high arm, and it's many conven-
iencies commend it to all who see it,
and the machine is so simple and
easily understood that any one can
easily learn to run it. In fact Mr..
Maskall informs us that it is the only
machine he has ever handled which
sells itself. We would advise those
of our readers needing sewing ma
chimes to give Mr.. Maskall call and
examine this machine for themselves,
and he will be satisfied with the re-
suit of your verdict. Mr.. Maskall
also has everything in the sewing
machine line, attachments and needles
for all the different machines, and
will treat you right if you give him
a call. Remember the place on Gay
street, opposite W. W, Woodruff &

MERCHANT TAILORING.
The Old Reliable Gland at the
Business.

What is a man without q good suit
of clothes? And how can a man get
a good suit of clothes unless he can
find a Tailor who is capable of fitting
him in the latest style?
Mr.. G.. W. Hand, a gentleman who
has been among us for several years,
is just the man for this purpose. He
can fit any man in the latest style,
and hide all defects of nature. He
is a perfect judge of the quality Of
goods, and is always ready to give
his customers the benefit of his ex
tensive experience. He has on hand
a stock of the very best quality of
goods, among which we noticed some
very tlnN Scotch goods equal to any
thing we have ever seen. MI. Hand
informs us he * ready to receive
orders from any part of the country,
and will warrant perfect fit or NO
trade.
We looked over his book OF orders.
and feel safe in saying that, II he
suits the customers whose names we
saw there anyone may safely trust hin
in making a suit for them He GER
tainly has on his book of orders the
names of our best citizens, and fol
suits of the most costly kind.
Our friends at a distance will dc
well to correspond with Nh. Hand
who will reply promptly and salts
factorily. In looking over his prices
we were astonished at the reason
ableness of his charges, considering
the quality of the goods and thu
style in which the work was done.
Mr.. Hand is at present located il
one of the stores of the Baptis
church, on Gay street, where he il
always glad to see his friends.

UNBoUNDED SUCCESS
Assured to all Young Men Possess
ing the Requisite Energy
And Following the Example Of
sa. Herbert w. Hall

The name of Herbert w. Hall has
grown to be household word in CON
nection with the shoe and hat trade
in Knoxville. His example is also a
bright and shining illustration of the
success of worthy and deserving
young men in business, for which
Knoxville is becoming famous. 1t
also points with unerring certainty
to the fact which is being clearly de
monstrated every day that energy
and close application to business is
sure to be followed by success.
It has been something like twelve
years since Herbert Hall embarked
in business in Knoxville, then a mere
youth. Nevertheless he possessed
Unnecessary qualifications that early
in life, and his path was constantly
onward and upward For a number
of years he was a member of the
progressive firm of McNulty, George
Il Hall, and now he is proprietor of
a leading boot, shoe and hat house,
one of the permanent establishments
of Knoxville. Besides being endow-
ed with real personal magnetism,
which attracts and builds up friend
ship among all classes, and being the
living embodiment of all that is hon
orable and upright, Mr.. Hall is every
inch business man in the true sense
Of the word, thoroughly educated and
trained In all the rudiments. He is
fully conversant with the demands of
the, Knoxville and East Tennessee
trade and keeps his house well stock
ed with the most complete line of
boots. shoes, hats, caps, umbrellas,
trunks, valises, rubber goods, and all
other articles known to the trade to
be found in the city. Halls is real
ly headquarters for everything that
is nobby, neat, stylish, durable and
desirable in the shoe and hat trade.
He knows how to meet the demands
of the Knoxville and, East Ten
nessee trade, and consequently
makes it a point to handle all
the approved and warranted brands
Of goods, and his customers may re
ly on what they are told as to the
quality of goods purchased of Her
bert Hall. It affords us great pleas
ure to bear testimony to the true
worth of one of Knoxyille's noblest
specimens of sef-made business men
and to commend him in, unqualified
terms to the very liberal patronage
which he and his business merit. ...
