"The Chrystal Palace" in attractive
letters over the door of 40 South d.
ylslOn-st., next attracted my attention.
On passing through the door | saw |
was entering a very handsomely ar-
ranged sample room. X. skinner : the
proprietor, and ne prides himself on
the excellent quality OF the wines and
liquors handled by him. His line of
cigars is also fine one, and after
selecting one from box of Kiss"
Iretraced my steps north tot the grocery
store of Phil Graham. Mr.. Graham
was in business when visited here IN
1852, and | found him yesterday to be
the same cordial, atfable gentleman.
Seven years of success has not changed
him one whit. The stock of groceries
handled by this gentleman is
one of the largest. if not
the largest in the South End and no
| grocery store in the city can boast OF
more varied assortment. In crockery
and glassware, a large line Is shown and
/ in the assortment are to be seen many
/ very pretty novelties. In connection
with his grocery Mr.. Graham for the
benefit of ms lady patrons conducts Il
/ dry goods department, embracing full
| lines of hosiery, underwear, gloves,
mittens, etc, all of which are sold ut
rock bottom prices. Mr.. Graham has a
large and efficient corps of assistants
and a feature in his business is the
| courteous treatment given a patron
| even though the purchase Is small
one. lt Is unnecessary to state Mr..
| Graham is an experienced man
in his line of business, rs
his long residence here has
made his name familiar in almost
! every household, especially in South
| Grand Rapids, and that ms stock Is one
| of the best assorted, and sold at the
most reasonable prices OF any III the
city is a fact appreciated by residents
| IN the vicinity OF the grocery; as Is de
mOnstrated 10y the great amount of
| patronage received daily.
Nothing is more refreshing than
| fine dish of ice cream, and / enjoyed
one at F. +. Bridges parlors, 507 South
DivisiOn-st. Mr.. Bridges prepares his
own ice cream, and uses pure Jersey
| cream. His patrons may rest assured
/ that the cream served them IS not
manufactured by any of the cheap con-
| Germs that make this Il speciality. Mr..
! Bridges uses extra care, and cleanliness
IN every way is a feature. Parties,
balls, etc, are supplied by the quart or
/ gallon. A soda fountain is run in con-
nectiOn, and the beverages served are
/ the best that money can secure.
In the "Belvederc" sample room |
came across my friend. Charley Rcghel.
| Charlie is in business for himself now,
and fortune seems to have smiled
I favOrably on him. His stock of liquors
( Is a fine one and embraces only bever-
| ages that are of the best. In cigars a
I full assortment viii always be found on
I hand. Anyone visiting the "Belvc-
/ dere" may rest assured of cordial treat
mcnt, as one of the features of Charles
success Is the genial atfable way he has
| of treating a guest.
think one of the finest milk shakes
! ever quaffed / procured at Pages
| Drug store, and evidently great many
residents of the South End think the
same way, because even while | was
drinking mine, at least half dozen
persons came in and gave orders for
one. Mr.. Page Is making n feature OF
/ his soda fountain, and Is serving a
| large number of extra fine and very
refreshing summer beverages. The
Juices he uses are all made from the
pure fruits. and his soda is always cool.
When a first-class beverage is desired,
