Old Philadelphia Changed
the Name of Its
principal street from High street te Market
Street, because, the center of the street from
Frent street te Eighth street was filled with
Market sheds always crowded with buyers.
Where there is, fresh, healthy, worthy
merchandise you may be sure the buyers will
crowd.
These days of happy buyers thronging this
Jbig Market shed have been most gratifying
te us.
Yeu can safely trust the people te knew
where they can get the worth of their money. "
The entire store is a merchandise chest of
Christmas things worth giving, reasonably
priced and geed.
It is always Christinas weather here
Welcome.
