delieacies, as well as the staple lines
of family groceries. At this season
this enterprising dealer has a large
line of all grades in candy, fresh and
nice, a tempting line of fruits, nuts,
etc. At the prices Frank makes, no
child's stocking should be without a
liberal supply of Christmas sweets.
o. NJ. WATERMAN,
who, beyond question, carries the
largest and most varied stock of
clothing and gents furnishing goods
in Lamoille county, is better pre-
pared than ever to respond to calls
for Christmas gifts. His very large
line of gents neckties, muf1ers, col
lars, cuffs, caps, umbrellas, bags,
gloves, etc., taken with his regular
stock of suits, ~overcoats, listers,
pants, nice underwear, hosiery. etc.,
make up a list that can easily sug-
gest the proper thing to give.
Waterman's is a thoroughly reliable
~place-good goods and prices that
can be relied upon are there. A GUS
toner gained remains a customer
with this institution in which swat"
and "Billie" hold sway.
G.. K. CURRIER & CO..
Outside their regular dry goods
business in which a very complete
stock offers timely hints in nice dress
goods, table linens, stamped linens,
warm underwear and all that, this
live house, with the veteran mer-
chant at the head, has a large dis
play of fancy articles suitable for
Christmas presents. In metal, parch-
ment, cellulOid, silveroid and other
goods, there are lots and lots of in
expensive things that will find ready
buyers, indeed many have gone al
ready. The children are remembered
with a great show of toys, games,
books, etc. To enumerate is i'm
possible. The line of ladies' and
Misses wraps and fine shoes is COM
plete and low prices prevail. An
elaborate showing of handkerchiefs
is always seen here.
COL G. W. DOTY
is what is sometimes termed a ''cork-
er" when he gets to buying. This
year it would seem that several
wholesale houses had given him free
sway to wade into their stocks and
bring up to Morrisville an endless
variety. The store is full from cellar
to attic and the Colonel will shun all
trouble about those bills when they
come due by selling at his usual clip,
which is something like a two-minute
gait. Doty's furniture store has an
endless assortment of the best there
is in handsome china and glass,
fancy crockery, nice lamps, rugs, has
socks, draperies, easy chairs, fancy
desks, tables, chamber and parlor
suits, sideboards, carpets, etc. There
is q bewildering maze of all such
goods, new, fresh and at the right
prices. Ii you want your wife to re-
feet a smiling face buy one of those
handsome mirrors. Doty buys to
sell and then sells; no one will be sold,
however, if they spend an hour in his
store before deciding upon anything
there or elsewhere.
H. p. MUNsoN,
the old reliable, is on deck with a full
line OF staple and fancy dry goods.
1t is not his practice to make q large
display of strictly Christmas goods,
but he has a great variety of goods
suitable for this occasion. Dress
goods. bedding, table linens, warm
hosiery, gloves, underwear, wrappers.
boots and shoes of solid worth, for
all ages, o%vershoes, ETC., are much in
evidence everywhere. FL. P, his
good wife, and the genial Gates are
always ready to show to lockers as
well as buyers, and if you don't SET
what you want it is no indication
that it is not there, for it is a great
rambling store, with a lot in it
reaching back to his complete stocE
of groceries and provisions and be
yond to where great bins of corn anC
meal and the like meet the eye. This
comes neal being an all-a-rOund gen
eral store.
GEO. F. EARLE
and his sprightly wife have fast mad
for their attractive store a plac,
very near the hearts and desires o
the women folks of this locality. Thil
store does not go into many of th'

line Of handkerchiefs, kid gloves, jack
cts and capes, collarettes. fame,
neckwear for the ladies, choice selec
tions in dress goods and trimmings

broidery, etc., etc. The Earles hav,
an established reputation for carry
ing goods of good quality and relia
bility. The interior of the store is al
ways attractively arranged.
