The daily morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1883-1899, 1898-12-24

The holiday display at Griffin & Reeds
is the greatest ever made in Astoria. The
toy department equals In variety and ex-
tent any department store on the coast,
and prices are actually as low as the larg-
est stores east Of the Rocky mountains,
Never before have the children OF this
city had an opportunity Of seeing such
an aggregation Of mechanical and other
attractive toys. The stock Of books
shown is not only greater than ever ex-
hlblted before, but books IN all bindings
are marked at prices positively as low as
the famous cheap book stores Of eastern
cities. The stock Of bric-a-brac Is con.
ceeded by competent Judges 10 be the
largest and best selected Of any ever seen
in town the size Of Astoria, and Is
offered this year, for the sake Of a clean
up, at prices never duplicated, perhaps
In any city In the country. II has alwaya
been a subject OF remark by strangers
visiting Astoria that the stock carried
by Griffin e. Reed was far ahead OF the
population Of this city, and the return Of
good times has induced this enterprislng
firm to prepare ON a larger scale than
ever for the present holiday season. No
place in the city offers the same in
ducements to gift buyers, and articles Of
all sorts can be found TO suit the heaviest
as the lightest purses. The force OF
clerks will be doubled today, but II would
be well for those who contemplate the
selection or purchase Of Christmas
present at this store to be down carly
and avoid the confusion and rush which
