1797 - L Dec. 22; adv:4/3,4 - MERRY CHRISTMAS floliday Presents and Where
to Buy Them.
R. B. Douglas and Company have everything in the line of pāotographs,
stereoscopic views, etc. -
E. C. Jones has a fine collection of pictures, and that finest of
"institutions," the great baby tender.
Copies of the human face (your own), divine (hers), are inevitable
gifts, and J. F. Ryder can put so fine an image on your face, or hers,
as to make a transcendental egotist of you.
Next to pictures, jewelry is perhaps the most current gift. Cowles
and Company have a very large stock. -
Ingham and Bragg have the finest photograph albums in the city. There
is one that an oil-prince might buy for his wife.
But the dry goods are enough to distract the female mind. E. I. Bald-
win and Company have Scotch plaids, plush cloakings, scarfs and ties of
every color, delaines, wool blankets, gloves and winter hosiery. -
Ilower and Higbee di late on their cloak and silk departments. A large
stock of breakfast shawls an nubias, may be had at their house.
J. M. and H. T. llower have just opened their new dress goods, balmoral
skirts, cassimere etc.
L. P. Sherwood waits to give all and sundry for slight consideration,
belting and belt buckles, point lace collars, and the best hoop skirts,
in the country, and well, please go and see for you rself. -
It is not the custom to go through this world in the primitive condition
in which we entered it. Modesty and the rigors of the season constrain
all to hie to the merchant tailors. L. A. Keppner has a large and choice
assortment of goods, and at prices to suit.
Ladies who don't know what to get for gentlemen go to W. P. Fogg's.
He has presents for every one. Beautiful Parian vases, moustache cups,
unique cigar cases, and toys. -
S. Brainard and Company have everything in the musical line except
"sack buts." . . . ‘. . . . . -- - .
At Mrs. Shaw's millirery rooms "you can get a love of a bonnet, and
all the other eleganticimas that take captive the female heart," while
you can get, for a trifle, at the library rooms the privilege of reading.
the best books. . . . . . . . . . . .
Jacob Frank can sell you the best hoop skirts in town, but if your
stomach is weak, Mynheer, and you prefer ale to hoop skirts, F. D. Stone
is your man.
If you are of phrenological turn, and seek a comb, coarse or fine,
to examine: someone else's head, go straight to G. W. Clark.
"Or if you, Uncle Ned, have no wool upon your head, William Day can
clapia wig upon the baid pate that will fill the bill, for he has wigs
so perfect, they seem for man's illusion given."
But if you are toothless and dyspeptic and savage, go at once to
Hall iwell and Daniels and get a set, partial or complete, of their
Wulcanite-based teeth.
Or if you are afflicted with toothache and violent fits of swearing,
fly forthwith to. H. H. Newton, who will speedily relieve you from all
your woes, and enable you to spend happily the Merry Christmas that is
coming. - -- (44)
