II may appear strange bat il is sneverthe.
less true that, however humbly in the
mercantile world one begins their career,
after years OF prosperity and the addition
, to their stock Of articles calculated TO srit
the purses Of the wealthy only, while their
varerooms may lie crowded with every
thing TO please the masses, there are those
who timidly shrink from entering the
domain of u merchant whose stock at first
sight presents an appearance of ceghnce
and costliness. Why this is so only those TO
whom the assertion applies can understand
AS an illustration Of this we will take for
example the furniture house Of Messrs.
Kirchberg q Keenan,, Of Detroit. II is
true that few establishments of the kind in
America can lay claim to so varied and
extensive an assortment of rare and unique
articles for interior decorations as they,
but the fact is none the less apparent thar
what they have not in medium or cheap
goods it is absolutely useless to look for
elsewhere. 1t would be n revelation 10

these goods nj least as cheap if not cheaper,
than any other house in the city. The
fact that such would he the case dies not
admit of the slightest question, for the firm
not only assert their ability TO prove it but
invite investigation. For the spring trade
they have prepared parlor and bedroom
suits in endless variety, some as low as $50.
and of no mean pretensions either. Tables.
chairs, lounges, hall racks, book cases.
desks etc, are shown at wide range OF
prices, so that all purses may be suited and
all desires gra.ified Non-residents Of the
city may count upon a cordial reception
when visiting the house. no matter whether
they wish TO purchase or not. The chief
aim Of the proprietors Is 10 show their
goods, for they arc satisfied that they will
recommend themselves In conclusion, a
little advice on the subject Of furniture
buying may not be out Of place. Don't
