the best article of the kind ever offered TO the

chewing tobacco still holds its place among
the best on earth, and its sales show q steady
increase daily. When in the city, dealers are
requested by the firm to call at the factory, 81,

the State at least who has not traded with or
heard of the old-establshed book store of j.
A. Roys, SO Woodward avenue ? 1t is to be
presumed that few who have had occasion TO
buy anything in his line from Detroit have not
communicated with him. Mr.. Roys enjoys
reputation that few can claim. Honesty Of
purpose. strict integrity and square dealing
with customers" should be his motto, for he
has won this opinion from all who know him.
His stock of books stationery, etc., being one
OF the largest and most commendable in the
city, customers have an ample assortment TO
select from, and they are guaranteed at the
start prices in favorable comparison with those
of any house in America. 1T should be said
that Mr., Roys makes specially of school
books and carries the most complete line and

Offices are located at 1913 and 1875 jefferson ave
nue& probably have as large O retinue of
friends as any house, East or West, efor the
sufficient reason that their goods invariably
prove according to sample and retain at all
times their uniformity. The "Sam Scott"
cigar, made by the Banner Tobacco Company,
has been in the market not less than twenty
seven years and none of the thousands of its
regular consumers during that period have
detected the slightest change in its remarkably
fine qualities. The institution is of large pro-
portions, and in looking through it the visitor
observes stacks of smoking tobacco on the
labels of which he may read Banner, "''Snow
Flake :" Chic, 4" Uno,"setc |; fine-cut chew
ing in !" Banner,n Blonde. nasPrairie Rose"
and June Bug" and various other evidences
that the lines of tobacco manufactured here
are so complete that customer need not seek
elsewhere an assortment with which TO COM
plete his stock. Dealers who have not as yet
dealt with the house will find it to their inter-
ests to do so. The officers of the company

EDISON, MOORE 6 Co.-The citizens of
Detroit point with pride to the splendid cdifice
in which Edison, Moore 81 Co., transact their
business, and feel that were they to give utter
ance to their thoughts all that might be spoken
would only be in praise of O firm which has
by its honorable career, its enterprise and in
tegrity, done much to advance the business
interests Of the city. Jobbers of and whole
sale dealers in dry goods may be found in
every city, but tits doubtful If any one Of
them all possess more staunch and true friends
than Edison, Moore & Co. The secret of this
good friendship lies in the fact that in all
things that may be beneficial to the city and
State they pledge their aid, while in their deal
ings with customers they invariably endeavor
to quote prices that will so far as they are con.
cerned make Detroit the market for all the
state. Their immense warerooms at this sea-
son are beautifully stocked with every de-
scription Of dry goods and novelties, and pre-
sent q most interesting sight to one unaccus-
toned to seeing the interior of such an estab-
lishment. The firm will he pleased TO receive
the public at any time, and the assurance may
sa1eiy be given that those who are unacquaint-
ed with the house will leave it after visit
with the firm conviction that Its success and
the kind regard in which 1t is held are we'll
deserved.

table. They have travelled all over the Uni
ted States and made the acquaintance of all
the largest growers and shippers, who consign
them goods for distribution. At the same time
they have carried large stocks of the best
qualities of all classes of canned goods, fancy
fruits &c. The retailer must find them very
satisfactory depot to get supplies from, and no
doubt has to judge from the present large
proportions of their business. After finishing
fresh fruits &c. in summer they endeavour to
get the best oysters to be had and it is the
general verdict that those dealers give their
patrons better satisfaction. and are more sure
of getting fresher stock than from any other
house. This winter they intend to place before
their customers better class of oysters and
tbeter filed cans than has ever been offered in
this market
