Engaeed in Business Here for
Twenty Years and Just As
Aggressive As Ever.
Sam Milavitz, whose place of bust
ness is at 215, Chestnut street in Vir-
ginia, has been in business in the
town nearly 20 years, and there are
very few people who have lived on the
range for any length of time that do
not know him.
He was in partnership with his
brother, in the same line, for the
space of ten years; then he became
the sole owner, and has been such
ever since.
: He aims to carry and does carry
a complete stock in his line, and he
will let no man undersen him. Quick
sales with small profit suits him bet
ter than slow sales with big profits.
He claims there is more than one adj
vantage in the system. First and
foremost, he gets the latest on the
Market; then he can also take ad-
vantage of the market flctuations and
buy reasonable, and it keeps things
humming; the dry rot and indiffer-
,ence which comes with slow business
nave no opportunity to settle and
root. 1t keeps the seller up to date,
active and all the time alive, and it
pleases the customers who are ever
on the lookout for the new things as
we'll as for bargains.
The most expensive goods, though
not always the most essential, that
Mr.. Milavitz handles, is the jewelry
department in his store. In the line
of timepieces and timekeepers he
carries as fine line Of waches and
clocks as any dealer, and also does
general watch repairing.
Next in the same line we find the
gold and silverware. Jewels in rings,
pins, brooches, etc., in the endless
varieties. Plain gold rings, lockets,
medallions, and all kinds of ornaments
flor the person as we'll as for the
home.
Silverware, solid and plated. for
ornaments and for use, both of the
person and for the home, Of the latest
designs and of the most approved
manufacture.
Cut glass for all purposes and in
all kinds of patterns, and at prices
that the person with a modest income
can reach.
Handpainted chinaware, that is
really made in China, exquisitly de-
signed an finished; all kinds and styles
of ordinary china and glassware.
Toilet articles that prove delight
to the maid and the matron; to the
dandy youth as we'll as to the sedate
gentleman of age and discretion.
Notions of all kinds, and notions
that will make people take a notion ia
buy them.
Musical instruments of all descrip.
tons and designs, and parts of such
instruments usually carried in music
stores. Albums of all kinds, designs
and varieties; blank books and sta
tionery for men and women.
Books, magazines, periodicals and
newspapers, toys and candies.
Also, a full line of pipes, cigars and
Ftobaccos.
Mr.. Milavitz knows that the PEG.
pie know him and his place of bust
ness; he is confident that he has
treated them in the past so fairl,
that there is no reason for complaint
but he knows also that a live business
Iman must, in season and out of sea
son, let the people know, not only thai
he is alive and has goods for sale, bu
that he is anxious to sell them, ant
THAT in order to meet the expenses
he must sell them.
He wants you all to understand
that there is not lazy bone in hi
body, and if there is one he'll have
removed; his clerks and employee
are not affected with the Sout
African sleepy fever, and for tina
reason it's no trouble to show 20
the goods whether you purchase Q
! not.
Mr.. Milavitz wishes you all a merr
holiday season and a very prosperou
and happy New Year.
