CHARLES l.. S!EOEL.-Thc thoughts oi
All Richmond people who read the cogno-
men Of this respected citizen will recnr
rather 10 Siegel with baton i'm hand leading
some gigantic chorus (such rs the York
town Centennial one, for instance) than to
the Siegel OF No. 42l Broad street, the
modest dispenser OF unlimited boot and
shoe-leather, done up i'm most seductive
guiSe hy the cordwainer's noble art. And
yet the musical Siegel and the boot-and-
shoe Sicgcl are one and the same--a soleful
~ "a v.
SieSel firmly believes that
The man that hath no music in himself
Nor Is not mCYd with concord Of sweet sounds.
Is NJ FOR troasons, stratagcms, and spOils:
The motions of his spirit arr duh as night,
Ana his affections dark as Erebus:
Let no snch man be trusted.
This is Sicgcl when disporling himself
before the pleased eyes Of admiring fellow
citizens at Mozart Hall, or mayhap York
town. At No. 42l Broad street he wiclds
not the potent baton, but the equally potent
and quite often more useful boot and shoe.
Here il is in his home life, surrounded by
the implements Of his calling, that YOU
will find Siegel-
TWO sOlcS with but single thought.
TWO hearts that beat as ono.
He says that if i'm these festive, Jolly
Christmas times you do not feel like get
ting entranced with his superior exhibit OF
boots and shoes, You must succumb 10 the
potent influence of his incompatible slip
pers, suited to either sex, and constituting
iirst-claSs present, or you will yield 10 the
destinations OF the many other pretty and
useful things he has congregated for your
delectMion. In any event, Siegcl will bc
on band to serve you, pleased il you buy,
and not mad ii YOU do not.
JOSIAH RYLAND Il Co.-Thcse gentlemen
may be found daily at their capacious
wareroomS, No. 9l3 Main street. ready TO
serve their friends and the public. They
are men OF melody, their specially being
respectively the soul-Stirring organ, the
emotional, bracing, and inspiring piano,
and the soothing, embarrassing harp. The
latter instrument was first introduced
to an Asiatic public some centuries
since by the weIl-known King David,
who, as old chroniclcrs hath il, possessed
ga harp Of solemn sound" Perhaps it
took the latter complexion from its owner
being often put in peril by those who
would not only have robbed him OF the
musical instrument in question but other
wise have rendered him Of no consequence
aS a mciOGy-producer. Necessarily his
dulcet carnations had q sombre tingc. The
modern harp is one OF the most elegant Of
instruments. In pianos and organs Messrs.
Ryland Il Co. offer the best, each and all
splendidiy adapted for Christmas presents
for wife, daughter, sister, or friend. What
an aggregation Of pleasure, what a tout
ensemble of JOY abounds in the fem
mime heart when the dear one is the
proud owner of an upright, square,
