MERCHANTS HAPPY OVER THE CHRIST
MAS TRADE.
The Christmas trade of 1899 was a
most successful one, and the merchants
were naturally happy over il. G. H.
Booth, the veteran and successful dry
goods merchant, told A BEE reporter he
had been in business in New Milford
since 1860, and never had enjoyed Iarg-
or trade. w. g. Barton, another popu-
lar Bank street dry goods merchant, said
his Christmas trade was most agreeable
surprise to him. His trade for Christ
mas week alone was $1,000 above that
for the same week year ago, showing
the general improvement in business and
OF Mr. BsrtOn's strong hold on. the public.
G. E. Rlddiford, the genial Bank street
jeweler, said his, Christmas trade was fine,
never better, and he was greatly pleased.
NJ. W. Hill, also in the jewelry business,
said he never gold so many valuable
goods before. Mr. Hill carried splendid
stock and the people supported him sur
prisingly well. Levy, the newsdealer,.
said his Christmas trade was ahead OF
anything on record, while his neighbor,
A. L. Conkey, had a good call for music
81 instruments and their accompani
ments. Staub & Mallett, the popular
hardware men, also had an unusually
large Christmas trade. This is one Of the
best trading places in the line in Litcb
