A Day in Norfolk.
acting.

The editor of The C COMMONWEALTH
spent a day in Norfolk recently. The
city grows apace, both in buildings
and business, and its development is
marked on every hand. Norfolk is
fast becoming a great commercial
centre and no city of the South is
more favored. The good people of the
city have the same cordial greetings
for all who go there that have char
acterized them so long. For more
than quarter of century the col
umns of THE COMMONWEALTH have
been an appreciated medium through
which many of the businesses of
Norfolk have presented various in
terests to our readers, and they con-
tinue to do so.
COPPER MARBLE WORKS.
This we'll known firm has carried
an advertisement in these columns
for many years and still so bid for
the patronage Of our readers. There
are no more clever men in business
and all who deal with them are pleas
ed.
TUCKER, HALL & COMPANY.
These gentlemen do a most sue
cessful business in fitting eyeglasses
and their customers are pleased with
their service. See their advertise
ment and write or call on them when
you need glasses.
PAUL-GALE-GREENWO CO.
If it is something fine and valuable
in jewelry you need these gentlemen
can fully supply you. Theirs is a
mammoth establishment, glittering
throughout with things of rare
beauty and great value. See their
advertisement elsewhere, and give

Inns CAFE.
When you are hungry and need
strength go to Linn's Cafe for some
thing good to eat. The fact that
nearly two thousand people are fed
there daily need not cause you to
hesitate to go, for the wants of
every guest are fully met. A splen-
did service is given in every particu-
lar and those who leave Linn's Cafe
feel the better for having gone
there.

editors and publishers not responsible tor the
views of correspondents, and the publication OF
