Re=Opening
At MCMahOn'S


ditiOns and extensive altera-
tons to their store at No. 600
King street, this enterprising
concern has announced their
Re-Opening Sale to take place
on Tuesday and Wednesday,
October 18th and 14th, at which
time they will offer furniture
and stoves in their store, at 10
per cent. of regular price.
The alterations which have
been made, give Mcmahon
Brothers the largest display
space of any furniture and
stove store in the city. The two
adjoining properties at Nos. SOP
and GOA King street, have been
purchased, and the dividing |
walls taken out, making this
one large store, 62xS7 feet.
This addition enables them to
carry at their Sixth and King
streets store, stove repairs, and
they claim to be able to supply
repairs for any stove made
since the Civil War. A visit to
their basement where these re-
pairs are kept is an "eye
opener" to anyone who has
never thought about the mag
nitude of the stove repair bust
ness in Wilmington. In order
to supply the people of Viii
mingtOn and the surrounding
country with their needs, it is
necessary to carry on hand at
all times, anywhere from Is to
20 carloads of these repairs.
Another feature which will
prove very popular to the Viii
mingtOn public is the bargain
basement" entrance to which is
made from the main aisle-way
of the store to its location
under No. 6O2 King street. In
this basement will be found at
all times, slightly used or
slightly damaged goods; and
the accumulation from their
bedroom stock from which part
of the pieces have been sold. II
is their intention to close all of
these articles out at cost and
their advertisements hereafter
will contain a few of the bar
gains to be found there.
I
ii This new arrangement also
gives them the entire first floor
of No. 600 King street for stove
display, and they carry the
largest line of stoves, ranges
and heaters to be found any
where in Wilmington. They
are also the sole agents in vii
mingtOn for the famous "MOn-
arch Beaver stove. This stove
has proven very popular in
deed, as attested by the fact
that nearly 5000 stoves of this
make are in use in and around
Wilmington, and every pur,
chaser of them is loud in
praise of their superior quality,
and the satisfactory results OBJ
tanned from them.
II Mcmahon Brothers reputa
ton for stoves is well known
they in the past having giver
more of their attention to this
end of their growing business
than any other part, The re
mainder of the first floor, for
merIy Nos. COZ and GOA King
street, is used for the display Of
furniture, which line will here
after be the largest part o.
their business. Furniture of al
grades will be kept on hand a
all times and no matter how
large or how small your pocket
book, you will find whatever
YOU need at this up-tO-dati
store, and better than all, tn,
prices lower, according Il
values, than can be found any
where in Wilmington or Phila
delphia. This store calls atten
ton to the fact that the stool
of this concern is owned b,
Wilmington people and ever
dollar of profit is invested il
Wilmington. Besides this the

is the motto of all their en-
pIoyes to trade in Wilmington
