A stroll up and down Main street
reveals the fact that dealers in wares
suitable for Christmas presents are
ready for business. Among the first
to catch our eye, being nearest to us,
is the attractive display of
J. C. WELLS,
His stock embraces diamonds,
watches, silverware, cut glass, fine
china, clocks, &c, and he can suit his
customers both as to quality and price.
His show windows are beautifully ar
ranged, and contain only suggestion
of the many things to be found in
side.
w. II. SLATE.
Going up street a few doors, the
eye is next caught by the pretty win
dows of w. Fl. Slate, and the inviting
exterior quickly lures one inside, where
a great array of books, games, fancy
articles, vases, china, stationery, lamps
and shades, and more than we can
possibly enumerate, are spread out at
uactively His goods are all bright
and new, and will have ready sale.
CLARK & SON.
At the immense store of Clark &
Son we found profusion of goods
suitable for the season. In every part
of the store there are displays of va
Iious kinds that fairly bewilder the
senses, and make it very difficult for
one to decide just what he does want.
There are beautiful banquet lamps
and shades, onyx tables, vast assort-
ment of china, screens, easels, pic
lures, perfume bottles, cut glass, UNI
brella stands, fur rugs, coats and
capes, handkerchiefs of every kind
and size everywhere, and other things
so numerous that we could not name
them all before Christmas. Go and
see for yourself.
M'KILLIP BROS.
A beautiful crayon of little Clarissa
Peacock hangs at the entrance to the
gallery of M'Killip Bros. Does it not
suggest to you that similar one of
your child, or dozen photographs of
yourself, would make acceptable gifts
to some of your friends ? The work
is all done in the highest style of the
art.
