WHERE THE PEOPLE GO.
WALsHN INSTALLMENT STORE
JUST THE PLACE FOR
CHnIsTMAS GOODS.

However much tho IL stallment store
of Phil. j. Walsh & Co.. 5O6 Market
street, appreciated in ordinary times,
by all classes, it is only when Christ
mas draws close upon US the adVan
tages of an installment store are shown
J la the great benefits conferred upon a
worthy class of people. There are hun
dreds of families in this city whowould
not be able to present there child
rem with desirable christmas presents
were it not that they had credit at the
installment store OF Phil, j, Walsh IL
| Co.
ANY respectable, industrious mechan-
ic or laborng man can make home p
paradise and the hearts Of is wife and
children glad because he can sup
ply pressing wants by credit given
him or goods which he could obtain
nowhere else. 1t is much easier for an
industrious mechanic making say Sl2
a week, to pay one dollar cash on $40
bill of goods and one dollar n week
thereafter until the whole is paid thal
! TO be compelled to pay the whole cash
down.
If this were required and no help for
| it hunger and cold would be the lot of
many. But new era has dawned up
on Wilmington. There sis a place
where credit is given there is a place
where the merchant and his patrons
are made mutually happy by the conf
denCe TepOsed in each other aud that
place is The credit house OF installmeDt
store, named.
"Can goods be bought as cheap there
as at other stores," did you say?
Most undoubtedly they car, even up
on the credit system they are as cheap
as the cash system at other stores.
"But are the goods kept in this in
stalmert store as good in quality as the
same priced goods in other stores? did
you ask
What a question why certainly
they are.
Jus. look at the quality Of goods of
ferred for sale at the installment house
of Mr.. Walsh & Co.
just look at those rich and magnif.
cent silk -fnr. lined circulars, Dolman's
and Princess Louise, from S25 to $50.
Not another store in the city keeps such
goods for sale. Just look at the ladies
millinery department. What splendid
hats and feathers.
Look at the watch and jewellery de-.
partmenU which for quality and varie-
ty of goods cannot be excelled. Look
at the dress depa artment where is there
richer line OF dress goods displayed
What soft dONny blankets and thick
puffy quilts Beneath them we can
we'll afford to laugh the bowling winds
to sCOrn.
Look at those rich brussels, tapestry,
and ingram carpetiug. Why these are
the very best of goods. Then take a
,Ook at the we'll supplied hat and shoe
department. What better varieties
can murtals want 2
Then up-atlirs is a whole clothing
house wnere boys am. mems suits greeL
| the eye in all directions. He who
cannot get suited here is indeed hard
to please.
Then down to the basement and
what a labyrinth If household goods
are mei-none of the rickety trashy
kind but strong snowy, gOrgeously i'm
ished, parlOr, cottage, and bed room
sets.
| But we pause here, We cannot go any
furtheriu our researChesC christmas times
are here and our space rust not al BIZ
used ina description of all we see to talk
about in the great instaIlmeLt empor-
ium. We hazard nothing in saying
that hundreds of families will enjoy a
a more happy Christmas this year on
account Of tue easy means by which
| hapDiuasa has hHen hrOu -It within
their reach by tho liberal credit system
of Phil. j. Walsh Il Co., and hundreds
more may still enhance the happiness
OF Christmas, by embracing the facili-
ties offered at COG Market street.
