w. R. JOHNSON.
Practical Horse Sheer.

One of the things that is sure to be
noticed and commented upon by a
person who is visiting blacksmith
shop is the manner in which horses
hoofs are treated in the process of
shoeing, for they are cut, scraped,
burned, and hammered as if they
were made of stone. Even if they
We're made of stone they could not
escape serious injury under such
treatment. Every horse owner should
exercise great care in the placing of
orders ii he wants to be sure that
the work will be properly done. In
this connection we may fittingly
make mention of the shopacarried on
by Johnson on Perry street, opposite
Koller's mill, as it is devoted entirely
to horse shoeing; it is one of the best
equipped, and most carefully lnanag-
ed in this vicinity. He has built up
so high reputation that many own
ers of valuable horses makeit rule
to have them shod exclusively at his
shop. He gives particular attention
to the treatment of stumbling, inter-
fering, speed cutting, corns, quarter
cracks and other defects of the feet.
Owners directions are strictly follow
ed, and we would advise parties hav-
ing lame, or interfering horses, to
give him q call. He is moderate in his
charges and fills all orders promptly.
He enjoys the confidence Of his pa
irons and the public in a marked de-
gree

JOHN HALTER
Marble and Granite.

One Of the most gratifying evil
dences of the spread of correct artis-
tic taste among all classes of society
is the great attention that is now be-
ing paid to the production of beauti-
full designs in granite and marble in
the way of monuments, headstones,
etc. Our productions in these lines
are not surpassed by those of any
other country in the world, and every
year the national excellence in this
respect becomes more distinctly
marked. A leading house in this vi.
cinity of the state, in these lines is
that of John Halter, who established
his enterprise here in 1876. Skilled
mechanics are employed, in the man
ufacture of a beautiful assortment of
monuments, head-stones, memorials
ETC., all of designs embracing artistic
taste and conception in the highest
degree. Ithas been the aim of this
house to furnish strictly tirst-class
work to the trade and public at rea-
sonable prices, and he cordially in
vites intending purchasers to call and
inspect his large stock, and get his
prices before purchasing elsewhere.
Among the notable pieces of work
done by him we would mention w. L.
Heller's, G. Bitzer's of Napoleon,
Wilcox, Mcclure cemetery. Personal
lyit can be said of Mr.. Halter that his
reputation for producing the finest
and mostartistic works. beyond cavil,
at the same time his honorable meth
DDS of dealing assures confidence to
all having business relations with
him.

HARMS & RoHRs.
Shoe Store.

One of the most attractive and pop
ular shoe establishments in Napole-
on is that conducted by Harms u
Rohrs, and owing to their efficient
management it has been most graft
flying success. They occupy spacious
premises located on Washington
street, which are fitted up in the
most modern style, and with special
reference to the business. In the
large and complete assortments may
be found everything in the line of
fine and medium grades, in hand and
machine made boots, shoes, slippers,
rubbers etc. for ladies, men, boys and
children's wear, also all the new and
fashionable novelties of the season.
These goods have been selected from
among the productions of the best
makers known to the trade, and are
unsurpassed in style, quality of ma
terial, and workmanship. They buy
for cash, thereby saving the discount,
and their prices are always beyond
the reach of successful competitions,
consequently the house stands high
in the favor and confidence of the
trade in this vicinity. ea
Messrs. Harms s. Rohrs are public
spirited, pleasant, courteous and en-
terprising gentlemen, prompt, aceu-
rate and reliable in all business trans
actions, and justly merit the success
they have achieved by their ability
and perseverance.

The Great Chevalier Will Visit
Toledo During the Holidays.

Through the enterprise of the man
agement of the Valentine Theatre at
Toledo, that and the surrounding
cities are to be given an opportunity
on Monday and Tuesday evenings,
Dec. % and 30, of seeing the great
London entertainer, Albert Chevalier,
who is probably the most justly fa-
nous artist in the English speaking
world. The short time that Cheva-
lier allotted to his American tour
necessarily limited his visits to few
cities only, and to secure his appear
ance necessitated the giving of a very
large guarantee. So far on his tour he
has been given an ovation at every
point, and the theatres have been
inadequte to hold the crowds. Cheav-
lier nights have been great events
and surrounding towns sent hund-
reds to the cities to see him. His ap-
pearance at the Valentine in Toledo
on the 28th and Goth will be made
special event, and our readers cannot
afford to number it among their lost
opportunities. Cheavlier is accom-
panied and assisted by his own COM
pany of high class vaudeville enter
tainers-all from London, and the pre-
formance is at once so novel, unique
and refined that it will never be for
gotten. Special rates on all the rail
roads have been arranged for the
benefit of those who wish to go to
Toledo to see this great artist. 1t
will be well to order seats in advance
by mail and we are assured that
orders addressed to the Treasurer,

all times are the most reasonable.
Since his embarkation in the restau-
rant business Mr.. Reidelbaugh has
created a reputation of the highest
kind for his unsurpassed manner of
supplying his patrons with the best
and most finely provided menu to be
desired, personally thorough busi-
ness man, polite and courteous gen.
tleman and is doing a live business.
The establishment is known to all
lovers of first-class home-like meal,
regular dinner served from II to 1.
The location neat, and attractive
apartments are among the finest de-
voted to the restaurant business in
the city, everything fresh, and the
service first-class in every respect;
bill of fare always contains a gener-
Gus list of tempting substantials, and
all the delicacies Of the season are
served d-Ea-cdrte. The public and
visitors to Napoleon will find this
restaurant a model one in every re-
spect, first-class table, reasonable
rates and agreeable management.

D. WILSON.
Dry Goods.

In no class of trade and with no
house in the line of an extensive
dry goods business in the promise of
increased activity in trade is more
striklngly Illustrated than at the
store OF d. Wilson. In speaking of
this house we desire to impress upon
our readers first, Mr.. Wilson does
at all times and under all condi-
tions of business keep constantly
presented to the public succession
of new ideas in the way of novelties
and styles. Second, he makes it his
constant aim and study to procure
the most desirable goods for each de-
partment, and being closely identified
with many of the leading manufac-
turers is enabled to offer a most super
ior line of goods at prices beyond the
reach of successful competitors, and
he Is daily receiving abundant evil
dence of the just appreciations of his
efforts to please his many patrons
throughout Napoleon and vicinity.
The stock displayed plainly testifes
to the extent of the business connec-
tions, in fact this store is filed to
overfowing with the choicest designs
of silks, dress goods, jackets, wraps,
underwear, hosiery, corsets, emborid-
cries, lace curtains, notions, fancy
goods, and miscellaneous merchan-
disc pertaining to this special branch
of trade. A special and most gratifY-
ing feature of this house is its sys-
TENS of guaranteeing. all goods to
be exactly as represented. All goods
being exchanged or inoneyrefunded
cheerfully. 1t is not saying too much
to claim that Mr.. Wilson possess an
adaptability and capacity for devel-
oping and carrying on gigantic en-
terprise. A visit to this store will
convince anyone that it is not neces-
sary to look further for anything in
the dry goods line.
