There is recipe going the rounds of
the press that is calculated to make watch
repairers gnash their teeth and slip a cog
or two, If the treatment proves ciliclcious
AMI don't spoil the time piece, to-wit:
Simply boil the clock or watch in water,
taking care that the same is h0t Mark
this: Lul1c-warin boil will not do the
Act; it must b. particularly hot. Some
foolish young min ''soAl1' their ''turnips"
and that is the last of them as far as the f.
y. M. are concerned 1t is said that a
time piece properly boiled is relieved of all
accumulated dirt, dries quickly, and when
properly oiled afterwards, goes right to
work, and thus you save your two dollars.
1t might be well to try it on Waterbury

gagged IN trade, and on account Of It's exten-
sivc operations has become most i'm
pOrtant addition to the Industries of Wash.
ington. OF such houses IT. Is not necessary
TO speak any words Of praise. Their very
existence Is more emphatic evidence Of the
honorable position they occupy aud the
long course Of faithful dealing they have
pursued Such an establishment is that Of
The Bon Marchc, Nos. 3l6 and BIS Seventh
street northwest, who established this
enterprise about one year ago, and ever
since its foundation has enjoyed a
liberal and hrst-cass patronage. The
premises occupied are commodiOus
and equipped with every facility and ap.
pliance for The display Of the varied stock.
The stock comprises a full and complete

which are to be found in Washington, as
well as other places, there are establish
ments that take a prominent lead In cater
ing to the wants of the population In gen.
eral, and supplying class of goods suit
able, not only to the. use Of the most
humble, but to the fastidious tastes and re-
quirements of the opulent. In making,
therefore, detailed resume of the business
industries of Washington, one house in
particular that sells its goods on the INSTALL
ment plan, requires something more than a
passing notice at our hand 'r r2yn., as
it has for some time, a pr" .io,i'ion
In supplying class of &c able Tor
people In every grade OF /. 40 hntse
alluded to is that of Mr. ,rOgan, in
the old Rink building or 49, York Il ye-
nue., between Thirteenth 3u. fourteeuth

and most reliable houses of. its kind in the
city dealing in furniture, bedding, carpets,
oil cloths, mattings, clocks, baby carriages,
stoves, refrigerators, pictures and an i'm
mense variety of housekeeping goods of
every description, with prices that defy
competition. 1t is q known fact that this
house sells its"goods on easier terms and
at lower prices than any other similar house
in the city. The purchaser can make his
terms to best suit his convenience The
facilities of this house for transacting n
large trade are not surpassed by any con-
temporary concern. This house has bus-
ness history dating back some years, and is
most favorably known in this community,
upon which the enterprise and success has
conferred many advantages, and this house
occupies position to which 1t is justly en-
titled by force of an enlightened business
policy and those principles of fairness and
integrity without which no prosperity is

j. II. Magruder.

The grocery trade occupies very i'm
portant position in the commerce of every
city, because this department of trade In
cludes every necessary article of food,
among which are the products of every
country In the world. One of the best
stocked establishments In Washington Is
that of Mr.. j. IL. Magruder, No, 14l7 New
York avenue, which contains full and
choice assortment of fine wines and liquors,
staple and fancy groceries of every deserip-
tion, including fine new crop teas from
China and Japan, fragrant coirees from
Java, Mocha and South America, tropical
aud domestic fruits, valuable selection of
henmetically sealed goods in tin and glass
spices, condiments aud table deli
cacies, and In short everything per-
tanning to the legitimate grocery trade
Mr. Magruder is highly respected in the
commercial world for his strict integrity,
and is thoroughly conyersant with every de-
tail OF the business and the requirements Of
the markets. The experience of the pro-
prietor affords the best guarantee to fami-
lies and consumers generally, and his es-
tahlished reputation for dealing only In pure
and Ilrst,class goods has long been a matter
BEYOND dispute. The equitable manner IN
which the business Is conducte !, as well as
admirable qualityand reliability Of the stock,
are guarantees sufficiently obvious why
Ctalels aud consumers generally would do
well to place their orders with this house.

Cigars, tobacco and smokers goods. The
magnitude of the proportions which the
consumption Of tobacco has attained In this
country, in the form of cigars especially,
would seem to indicate general belief in
the truth Of the saying she who smokes
thinks like philosopher" Every year the
demand increases and the industry grows,
and, with Cuba as source of supply, we
cannot fail to be the largest manufacturers
and consumers of cigars In the world. These
goods are produced and dealt in to quite a
considerable extent here in Washington, one
of the most prominent houses engaged
in 1t being that OF William A. Hen
derson, 1C5 Fifteenth street, near New York
avenue, who has increased and developed
his business to large proportions solely by
his personal eXertions and the aclsnowl-
edged merits of his goods. lie deals in fine
cigars, tobacco, pipes, and smokers arti-
cles of every description. His cigars have
gained deservedly high reputatlon, and
the readers of this paper will fad it to their
interest to visit his store when they are in
want Of cigars, tobacco, or smokers goods,
and we assure them cordial reception aud
geItlemanly treatment.
