Among the most substantial business
men of Fort Worth, we know of none who
stands in the commercial world better
than do the gentlemen whose names ap-
pear al thchead of this article. The
name Plnkard & Joyce has gone forth
throughout the land as one of the most
reliable firms In the state. and il Is with II
good deal of pride that we chronicle
the fact. They began business in a
modest way about four or five years ago,
and to-day they occupy double store
building 50Xl00 feet, two stories high, on
Houston street, right in the heart of
the business center The stock car
rled by this firm is fun and varied, COM
prising all the --latest agony in fine and
costly furniture down to the cheapest
bedstead and washSiand, The splendid
and costly parlor suits, and elegant bed
room snits, mirrors, pier mirrors and
lounges cannot he eXcelled by any other
house IN the Southwest. And their office
furniture is simply beautiful TO behold,
and should be seen and examined 10y all
who anticipate making purchase The
one all important point with this firm is
that they make their purchases direct
from the manufacturers of these goods.
hence ii is that they can afford to sell you
low; To sell goods cheap You must buy
cheap, and that is the motto of Pinkard 4
Joyce.
The immense trade transacted in this
city renders il necessary for the mer-
chants of Fort Worth To carry large and
wcll-assorted stocks, and this establish
ment IS by no means nm exception to the
rule, as visit by you to their mammoth
store will readily demonstrates. Pinkard
4 Joyce keep Il full corps of skilled
workmen employed all the while unpack-
ing and packing new goods, and
putting up all grades OF knocked
down" furniture for the retail trade.
The trade OF this house, though extensive
in the city, reaches out To nearly all parts
OF Texas, and is growing daily SO parties
from n distance, visiting the city, should
not leave the Fort until they have paid
this great furniture hodsc visit, as their
trip to the city would he incomplete
without so doing, and If you don't want
TO buy goods you will meet with the same
courtesy and attention by these gentle
men, and be shown through their cXtcn-
siyc stock Just the same as ii you wanted
TO make n big bill. This house con
ceiyed the idea of selling goods on the
installment plan, giving people in the city,
cmploltS. clerks ana business men on
small salaries the opportunity of out
fitting themselves with full set of bed
room and parlor furniture 10 set up
housekeeping ON. This plan has proven u
success, and they continue to make sales
on the instalment, hence you see the
libSral spirit in which this popular firm
carries on their business This house
has by honest and upright transactions
built up trade second To none i'm the
city or state, and they propose by the
same means 10 hold on to it.,
and it is by such liberal dealing
that they have grown 90 be one OF the
largest dealers in furniture in the state of
Texas. Their successful career in the past
is the best evidence OF their future great
ness in business in this city, and 10 the
thousands of readers of THE GAZETTE
during the reunion, both in and ont OF
the city, we say when visiting the Fort,
and before leaving the city, call and cN-
anime the elegant stock of furniture OF
