B. B. TOPPING.
Jeweler and Optician.

The latest acquisition to the up-to-date
trade facilities of Milford, in the jewelry
and optical lines is the jewelry store on
Walnut Street. which was established by
B. B. Topping i'll 1898. It is new and up
to the times in appointments and the
successful patronage that has been tie
veloped is a forcible illustration of the
growing needs of the town. The store
is well stocked and has gained an enviable
reputation as place TO buy thoroughly
reliable jewelry, gold and silver watches,
clocks etc, which will always be found
just as represented. The facilities include
display Of an exceptionally fine assort-
ment of clocks, watches, diamonds,
jewelry, plated and solid silverware, cut
glass. novelties etc, and this store is the
local distributing agency for the cele-
brated Howard Watch. Mr.. Topping
makes a speciality ofrepairing, cleaning,
adjusting and regulating watches and
clocks, branch Of the business in which
he has gained distinction as an expert,
always giving the best of satisfaction at
moderate prices. Mr.. Topping is an OPP
tician of broad knowledge and practical
experience and deyotes special attention
to the correction of errors of refraction
by the adjustment Of proper lenses to the !
eye. During his eleven years here Mr..
Topping has maintained a merited repu
tation for honorable dealings, always pre-
ferring to give square deal, TO making |
excessive profits. His goods are always I
found as represented.

W. c. ABBOTT.
Ship Yards.

Possibly no concern of any kind
doing business in Milford has done
more to give the town a reputation
beyond the confines Of its home
State than has the ship yards in
South Milford which have for the
last - wears been conducted by W.
G. Abbott. The enterprise was es-
tahlished by J. w. Abbott, way
back in 1869 and has during all
these years been a source Of liberal
support to the town through the
employment Of large number Of
skilled mechanics and woIkmcn at
salaries commensurate with the du-
ties required of them. At an early
age w, G. Abbott, the present pro-
prietor, became associated with his
father in the business and until 1890
the yards were conducted bv J. w.
Abbott & Son. The death Of the
senior Mr.. Abbott made it neces-
sary for the son to assume all re-
sponsibility. and that he was amply
qualified for the position has many
times been demonstrated by the sue
cessful achievements of the past -
years. The energies Of the Abbott
Ship Yards are devoted to the con-
OF all kinds Of -eoastwise
and sea-going vessels made Of wood
and they enjoy the distinction of
having built the largest vessels ever
south Of Wilmington.
Facilities are complete in every de-
tail for the perfect construction Of
barges, tug boats, schoon-
ers, sloops, sail boats and pleasure
crafts of all kinds, and the fact that
The reputation of the Abbott make
IF boats extends from Maine to
is a guarantee of their SUI
DeriOrity in the matter Of sea-going J
qualifications, safety and durability. |

Walter H Davis. Mr., Davis es-
tablished himself in business here

gressive and enierprising methods,
has built up a desirable patronage
and been particularly successful
Here may be found at all times the
freshest and tenderest of beef, veal,
mutton, lamb and pork as well as

Of his business, having had a wide
city as we'll as country experience, /
and his congenial courtesy to every /

the town itself, but the entire sur

MISS E. C. STlDHAM.
Fashionable Millinery.

It is interesting to note that Milford has
ladies engaged in commercial pursuits
who have been as successful, enterpris-
ing and progressive as the men. Among
these none have been more successful
than Miss r. q. stidIisin whose millinery
parlors on Walnut Street, are regarded as
millinery headquarters. Her parlors con-
tain a particularly large assortment Of
shapes, ribbons. wings and millinery ac-
cessories and her creations always have
distiuctiveness about them not easily

WILLARD F. DEPUTY.
Building Materials.

Nothing more forcihlv illustrates
the development of Milford than the
increase Of its successful business
concerns which has marked its pro-
gressive advancement during the last
decade. Another Of the concerns
adding greatly to the wholesale and
retail facilities ofthe town is the lum-
Der and building mat. rails establish
ment at the corner Of Railroad and
Maple AYES, which was founded bv
the present proprietor, Willard F.

growth of business has been phen-
omenal, indicating clearly what can

D G COLLINS
Groceries and Provisions


Another Of the active and sue
cessful business men of Milford who
have within the last ten years fore
ed themselves to the front and de-
veloped a prosperous and growing
trade, is D. g. Collins, whose groc-
cry and provision house on Walnut
Street, is one Of the best in town
and one Of the most literally pat
ronized This was formerly one of
the departments of George H.
Halls department store and Mr..
Collins was its manager and when
Mr.. Hall expressed a willingness
to sell Mr. Collins took advantage
Of the opportunity to embark in
business tor himself The store is
most conveniently arranged and
contains a heavy stock Of pure food
supplies among which may be
found everything in choice staple
and fancy groceries, canned goods
butter, eggs. teas, coffees, cereals
and breakfast foods. table delicacies
fruits, vegetables etc, and the pat
ronage comes from among a class
of customers who appreciate the
fact that nothing is ever allowed to
leave the place but that Of the very
first quality. 1t may be said in
passing that Mr. Collins has built
up a splendid reputation for super
Tor qualities and right prices, and
few if any Of the stores in town
cater to a better class Of trade. Mr.
Collins is a thoroughly conscien-
-ious business nan and the manner
IN which he has conducted this
place since taking charge Oft nine
years ago has made him felt as a
strong competitor for the local gro

of the house TO handle only reliable
