A LOCAL WORLDS FAIR.
A Display which is Worth Going
to see by Everybody.
IT Isl GREAT CREDIT TO THE CITY.
An Establishment which would be n
Matter Of Fluttcrlng Comment In
any City In tho Land...Whcrc tho
Fashionable Crowds arc Always to
be Found.

Wheeling can boast OF sevcral bust.
ness establishments which are not sur.
passed for style and extent outside Of
the largest cities OF the country, andsh
has II in particular which will com.
pare fayorably not only with all in the
same line in America, but would DO con-
sidered modern and creditable rs 10
style in any city on tho globe. 1t is a
palace OF beauty, a brilliant display to
which the name Worlds Fair" may
well DO applied. 1t looks rather like
tho artistic exhibition Of a number OF
firms or individuals than the sales-room
OF one man. 1t is in short Il business
palace.
10 those who arc familiar with the
city II Is OF course unnecessary to speci-
iy that that this description refers to
George l.. bursts Palace confectionery,
at l2l7 and l2l9 Market street. To those
who only occasionally patronize Wheel
Ing merchants, and who have never
been in Mr.. bursts place, especially ut
holiday times, there is q now and rare
treat Awaiting them there. 1t is known
to almost everybody that Mr.. burst has
M establishment the rival OF which for
beauty, fine fittings and extent is sell
dom seen anywhere, but it is perhaps
not generally known that in his palatial
place Wheeling can boast n contection-
cry admitted to be unsurpassed for
tasteful adorIacnt in the land, no city
barred, and that there are Tut four sim
liar establishments III American cities
in which greater expense is represented
in tho fittings. Nowhere, either, can
there be found greater variety OF fine
CONNECTIONS, OF tho most popular and
fashionable kind, always fresh and al
ways pure and wholesome.
An lSTELLIGEScER reporter yesterday
went through MIR. bursts shops, and
watched the large force engaged with
nimbie fingers III preparing the candies
and the cakes which are scarcely on the
counters till the piles begin to grow
smaller by degrees and beautifully less.
Again i'll this department is one remind
cd OF the worlds lair. The long shops,
filled with the most modern and inseni-
GUS machinery and tools for the business
look rather like an industrial exposition
than a workshop.
Everything moves like clockwork,
and it is q revelation to anybody not
thoroughly posted in the business to
SEQ what q concern it requires to supply
with tho sweets Of life such n patronage
as that Mr.. burst enjoys. Cleanliness
is the marked characteristic OF every
thing i'll the shop. The materials are
all pure and OF high grade, and the way
they do disappear into the big kettles
and the machines and coma out ready
Tor the daintiest mouth is worth going
far to see.
At these times when everybody wants
something in his line, Mr.. burst is OF
course rushed with business, but he
can by increasing his force increase his
capacity and supply the biggest demand,
but it will be wise to buy early. His
establishment must be seen to be
appreciated. No description can do it
justice. The picture in another place
in this mornings paper gives a good
idea OF the main store.
