In tbe stock of diamonds and other precious stones, the most exacting can be suited, the tine and select stock in this line, being large, aud containing some of the costliest C and most elegant goods ever brought to North Louisiana. The lact that few persons are qualified to Judge of tbe value of diamonds, eic., makes It a necessity to the careful prudeut buyer, to purchase from a bouse where practical knowledge and perfeot honesty are combined in its management. o High class, artistic fancy goods are a spe- a nlnltv; in this line the aesthetic taste of Mr. tl Tusteu being a guarantee as to tbelr real ar- tl tlHtic wortb, and those not posted as to tbe b regular prices of goods of thai obaracler can s< depend on being treated right In Mr. Tusten's m store. b Not tbe least Important item to tbe public s Is tbe price palu for anything, and in this o connection ills on'y proper to say that tb is > house guarantees both goods and prloes to be h rkbt. d Socially Mr. Tusten is a very pleasant gen- ft tlemau.
