General Invitation From L.. ID. King
81 Co., China Merchants, Detroit.

In none of the many magnificent
ana beautifully arranged business
emporiumS which make Detroit
famous, can the. visitor derive more
pleasure, than in the establishment of
l.. Il. King * Co., the Wholesale and
retail dealers in china, glass and
crOckery ware, 1O3 Woodward avenue,
that city. The house is one Of the
Oldest in Michigan and the West. Half
a century ago, a. X. w. King d Co., it
was the base Of supplies to the then
sparSely settled region which now
numbers millions of residents. 1t had
the trade of the grandfathers of the
present generation, rs it had that of
their fathers, and it keeps the conf
dence of the present descendants Of
the pioneers. These facts are of easy
explanation.
One Of the chief reasons why this
establishment has been able to hold it's
trade and to extend it, in the face of
active competition, is the absolute re-
liability of its goods. From the be-
ginning of its efforts and all along in
It's career to this day, the goods sold
by this firm could always be depended
upon. In these days of limitations,
more numerous and deceptive than of
old, it is comfort and satisfaction
to know where one can procure the
finest and best of those delicate goods,
with the assurance that they are ex-
actly as represented. Very few peo-
pie outside the trade, and not all in
the trade, are fully competent to
judge correctly in this matter They
would like to be sure of possessing the
genuine article. 1t is only required
that it be procured at Kings" to
guarantee this.
The immense and carefully selected
stock of this house comprises every
thing in china, cut glass, queensware,
and kindred articles. Every novelty
and everything Of beauty in these lines
may be seen there. Retail dealers in
Michigan and the West will learn
what is new and popular by visiting
Kings" They will find such n visit
highly profitable, be their require
ments much or little.
Young housekeepers (and old ones
as welD will derive much pleasure
and satisfaction from an inspection Of
the many beautiful articles displayed
in this veritable palace of art. We
live in an age of culture and taste, and
all who can possibly afford 1t wish to
III UP CuelT uOueS WIFI elegance, anu
according to the prevailing styles.
Our readers who desire to have their
pantries, sideboards and dining tables
furnished as they should be, should
call at "King's" and look around.
They are invited to ask questions, and
they will have all information given
them by persons whose business it is
to know, and whose success in busi-
ness is a proof that they know.
Scattered all over Michigan and
States adjoining, in the homes of the
wealthy and humble alike, are
souvenirs and heirlooms bought at
Kings" in Detroit. These articles
Of use and beauty have endured be-
cause they were "good," outlasting
much that was only supposed to he.
The season of spring replenishing
is at hand. The long-established
character Of this house, and its we'll
known facilities. make it the mart for
spring buyers Of china, glassware and
crockery. The firm extends person.
