r.. ID. WOrrell.
Among the finest and most artistic
displays OF goods in Mexico, and one
that would equal many metropolitan
stores in everything that goes to make
a complete stock to select from is that
of MI. r. d. Worreli, the jeweler.
This rich and diversified stock of jew
elry speaks in language most eloquent
and tells a tale, that the citizens of
Mexico demand the best goods in this
line. Its location is on the south side
of the public square, where its quar-
tiers are commodious, and fitted up in
keeping with the best jewelry houses
in the state, and is not only q credit to
its proprietor but is an elegant addi-
ton to the mercantile interests of the
city. Mr.. Worrell has had thirteen
years practical experience as q jeweler,
four of which he has been proprietor
of this establishment. His stock is
made up of q full line of jewelry,
watches and clocks from the best
American manufacturers, and also
silver and silver plated ware and q
full line of optical goods. In the mat
ter of plated spoons, he carries a line
that is sold with a guarantee to wear
twenty five years. This gentleman
buys his diamonds direct from the inn
porters, and does his W setting, and
at the present writing has over $1,000

glass ware, a. also onyx-top tables, the
former being in designs tina are beau
tiful and unique, and the latter with
metal standards.
In connection with his jewelry de-
partment Mr.. Worrell desires to call
special attention to his eighteen carat
plain gold rings, the same being the
finest in the market. 1t would be inn
possible in a newspaper article to
specify and comment on but a small
portion of the artistic display of goods
in store at this repository, and only a
brief outline of the more noticeable
featufe s has been given. As a whole,
however. the jeweIry establishment of
r. ID. WOrrell reflects taste and expe-
rience in selection, an outlay of capital
that is large and a wealthy community
to buy and cater TO.
