J. J. K1LGALEN.
PLUMBER AND GAS FILTER.

The houses located in Staunton en-
gagged in the important industry of
plumbing and gas fitting are noted for
the able and intelligent manner in
which they are conducted; the work
done by them is seldom excelled by
any of the houses in larger cities. Mr..
Kilgalen holds high place among the
reliable houses engaged in this bust
ness, and is very justly proud of the
success that has attended his efforts for
the five years he has been engaged in
business here. His success is not to
be wondered at when we consider the
causes that have led to it; always at
tentive and prompt in business affairs
and an excellent workman himself, he
has employed none but skilled employ
ees. He has in this way commanded
the confidence of all his patrons and
has secured a large and very desirable
patronage. His store is located ON w.
Main street near the Y. M. G. A. bull
ding. 1t is stocked with full line of
all goods used in the business, con-
sisting Of gas fixtures, plumbers sup
plies, lead and terra Gotta pipes, etc.
Mr.. Kilgalen is native of Richmond,
Virginia, capabablc mechanic, re-
liable merchant and an energetic citi-
zen. We bespeak for him further
prosperous business career.

T. X. LIGGETT,
DRY GooDs AND MOTIONS.


Among the mercantile firms which mark the
progress of the City of Staunton, is the above
house-one of the oldest establishments in its
line, in the City, having been established by
Mr.. F. M. Young about twenty years ago.
In Sept, 1887, Mr.. Young was succeeded
by W. P. Whitmore, Z. p. Denny and J. X.
Liggett, who conducted the business underth
firm name of Whitmore, Denny & Liggett, un-
til Sept, 1888, when Mr.. Denny withdrew from
the firm, and the business was continued by
the remaining partners, under the firm name
of Whitmore 4 Liggett. On March goth, 1890,
Mr.. Liggett purchased the interest of his part
ner, and since that time has conducted the bu-
SneSS alone.
Mr.. Iggett has been in the mercantile life
of this enterprising City for many years, du-
Bile reputation.
The large retail trade of this house reaches
almost every family in the City and county.
The store occupied by Mr.. Liggett is located
at No. 10 w. Main street. The building is a
commodious two-story building, ~ KS feet,
admirably adapted for the business done, and
is filled to overlooking with stock which, for
variety and completeness, is not surpassed in
the City. A full line of Foreign and Domes-
tic Dry Goods, Fancy Dress Goods, Silks,
Linens, White Goods, Mourning Goods, Cas-
simeres, and Ladies' and Children's Wraps.
Also Dress Trimmings, Woolens and Fancy
Goods; and in Notions is found an endless
variety, of American and French manufac-
lures. "A full line of Trunks, ETC., completes
this large stock, from which every one can be
suited.
Five competent employees assist Mr.. Lig-
gett in the transaction of his business, and we
can say that the growth of the business has
always been commensurate with the excellent
quality of goods offered for sale, and the reli-
ability of representation.
Mr.. Lisgett, the sole owner of this prosper
Gus establishment, though a young man, is
one of the shrewdest and most energetic. He
is native of Salem, Va, but during his long
residence in Staunton has been noted for his
zeal in all matters touching the welfare of the
City.

THE MAGNESIA LITHIA

OR VIRGINIA WAUKESHA SPRINGS.
Just beyond the city limits of
Staunton is situated this valuable pro-
perty, which has only recently attract
ed public notice since its remarkable
curative qualities have become gen
orally known.
The spring is located on the pretty
soak Hip dairy farm of Davis A.
Kayser, Esq, who being himself in a
low state of heath some time since,
and convinced that there was unusual
virtue in the water, had it brought to
his home in the city, and using it liber-
ally, was so completely re-established
in health that he determined to give
the public the benefit of his discovery.
MIR. Kayser at once mentioned the
water to his friends, told them what it
had done for him and allowed them
the full use of it, and the result has far
surpassed his expectations.
A number of persons, well known,
not only in Stanton but throughout
the State, who were affected with in
digestion, dyspepsia, insomnia, kid
ney and bladder troubles and other
f1eshly ills that usually find relief and
cure from lithia waters, have availed
themselves of this fountain of health,
and the writer has it from the lips of
some and the pen of others that they
were healed.

ed that he had found lithia water of

EAKLE & BOWLING,
WHOLESALE GROCERS,
To South Auousta Street


Next in line, but standing at the head of the
profession, in the amount of business and pop
ularity of its members, is the well-known
firm of
EAhZE g. BOWLING.
Situated in the very heart of this prominent
mercantile thoroughfare, and occupying a
three-story brick building 81 x 100 feet, as
store-rooms, together with large and COM
madious ware house, of like dimensions, in
the rear. The business from which this is
the outgrowth, was founded little over eight
cen months ago, by B. F. Eakle, Jr., who has
been long and favorably known to the grocery
ira de in this place, and who, with character
istic sagacty aud untiring energy, pushed the
business to its present success
fdr. Eakle is Virginan by birth. and has
been identified with all enterprises that affect,
in my measure, the prosperity and future de-
vel opment of Staunton. He is also Director
Of the Buena Vista Building & Investment
Co., and member of the firm of Eake, Au-
gust & Donovan, of Clifton Forge, agents for
the C. & o. K. X. Co., in the development OF
that place.
Mr.. Bowling, the junior member of the firm,
is too Virginian by birth. and one of the most
public spirited men in our midst, both in lib
eral dealings with his fellow-men and in the
interest he takes in all the enterprises that di-
fectly a1fect the CROWN ana advancement OF
our growing wholesale center. He is also the
sole owner of one of the largest Touring mills
in the State, and may justly feel proud of the
reputation his mill has made
Messrs. Eakle & Bowling are fortunate in
having for their manager Mr.. Jno. M. Spots,
whose knowledge of the business, coupled
with his large acquaintance and popularity,
make him an invaluable adjunct to the house.
The stock carried consists of Staple and
Fancy Groceries, Flour, Tobacco, &C., all Of
which are bought in large quantities from
manufacturers and importers, thus nsuring
lowest prices to their customers.
This firm, recognizing the necessity of con-
trolling some of their own brands of Tobaccos
and Cigars, have caused to be placed on the
market the celebrated Dark Horse, Iron Noun
tain and Greenbrier Tobaccos, and Hopes
Greeebrier, Jno. SPOTS and His Mob Cigars.
In addition to the above, they have acquired
exclusive control in this section of the varied
assortment of Cereals manufactured by the
celebrated Hover Co., and the world renown-
ed Globe Soap Cos goods, which are by
word in every household.
Last, but not least, Especially in avoirdu-
pois), we would call attention to Mr.. M. A.
Hope, who was one of the first to take his
"grip" in hand and set forth to do battle for
his employers and the city in which he had
decided to cast his lot. Faithfully and we'll
has he done SO, as the fruits of his labor show.
