Ready for Uuslness.
Mr. II. J. Gillen's dry goods store has been
ouite restocked during the past few weeks, dur-
tog most of which time Mr. Gtllen's efforts have
been chiefly exerted to make the stock for the
holidays as largo and elegant as possible. The
entire house has been refilled with goods, and he
has now an enormous stock on hand or goods or
every variety, filling the building completely.
They are goods particularly desirable at this
time, and all the novelties of the trade will be
found In stock:
A complete line of cloaks, dolmans, and
shawls;
An endless variety of tine dress goods, silks,
plushes, velvets, trimmings, Ac,
Fine line of silk novelties at prices that would
ruin most dealers!
All fancy notions and holiday novelties, in
great variety.
Indeed there Is no questioning the character
of this stock by those who have seen it. It is as
complete and extensive as this great county de
mands and has been put in to meet the demands or
thiscountv: to be the leadiiur stock of tlie county
in goods and in prices, for Mr. Olllcn is confident
he is offering prices in all departments that can
not be met elsewhere In this county. This is
strong, but the goods and the prices asked will
warrant it.
The boot and shoe houses are in equally good
shape to give satisfaction, and it is always the
custom of the house to never take a back peat to
any one on quality or variety of goods or low-
nessof price on any article.
All requested to' call.
The City Mills are grinding buckwheat, and
we do say it "takes the cake" for buckwheat; or,
rather, the cakes are taken, or anyway, the
buckwheat is pure and good and you can't find
better in Ottawa. Just try it once.
A Labyrinth.
And a profusion of holiday goods, so much so
that it is almost impossible to decide which to
choose. On first entering it is rather amazing
to see the tine display of goods and so artistittal
ly arranged that it exceeds general admiration.
The boys are noted for their line judgment in se
lecting choice goods, and certainly their stock of
goods for exccllancy is not excelled by any
house in the city. In spite of the bad condition
of the roads and inclemency of the weather, they
are enjoying a very large trade as usual. As
they are the strictest cash house in the city, you
can rely on getting hardpan prices. So if you
have any loose half dollars that you wish to
dispose of, we would be pleased to give you
value in return. Call and see those goods at
FoiiiiEs & Flick's.
More novelties are arriving daily especially
adapted for holiday presents. Adding these to
the already unsurpassed stock of Jhristtnas
goods at Gehrlng's Drug Store? makes it the
place to select. Remember that the prices are
marked down to sell the goods, as I have no
room to cary them over.
We are not Satan, nor a frieud of Satan, and
yet we do not hesitate to admit, that we are
chuck full of Umptalions, our temptations, how.
ever, are good in their nature and object. They
arc handsome, lovely, beautiful, sweet and
harming goods for Christmas presents. Come
and see them. A. Lynch.
