Thr? days more and the holiday season win have commenced sore enough. Neither deal? ers nor purchasers have now any time to lose, thefortuerin making public what they have for sale, and the latter in -laying In their supply; for ?tocks are being picked over, and there will not be Buch a fine field for choice on the day before Christmas, when the laggards go the rounds. At? tention is invited to the holiday advertisements appearing in another part of this paper, as well as to the hims which arc subjoined: Upholstery. One of the handsomest establishments in Charleston is that of Trim, the upholsterer, on King street. Whatever one needs to moke home beautiful, except a wife, of course, is to be found herein thc shape of the most elegant curtains, shades, wall papers, cornices and the like. Some of his patterns aro exquisitely neat and tempt? ing. Among other articles that arc worthy of in? spection, ls a magnificent cornice and heavy damask curtain imported for exhibition at tte fair, but received too laie for the purpose. ?.All for a Dollar !? The "Dollar Store" has become an Institution. Bow snch beautiful articles as are sold there for one dollar can be afforded for a price that seems |.a mere bagatelle In comparison with the actual value, passes comprehension. The store is crowded from morntng until night, and the man? agers are kept busy os bees In replacing stock which bas been purchased. It ls a perfect curi? osity shop. The Housekeeper's Paradise. Duval, on Klug street, Just above Liberty, is too well known to Charleston housekeepers to re? quire more than the men ion of his name, and yet he ls too important an adjunct of our domes? tic comfort to be omitted from this holiday list of merchants and advertisers. We Uko to look In upon him if for no other purpose than to see how well a mau looks reflected from a convex stomach I of one ot his brilliant coffee biggins-elegant Christmas presents, by the way. As for variety, why, bless your soul, you can buy anything there, from a pap spoon to a kerosene stove. Where to get Turkeys. If there is any mau lu Charleston "sound on '.he goose," thoroughly posted on the turkey question, a compounder of unexceptionable sal? ads, and with a genius for making a dinner table groan with luxurious burdens, that man ls Tally, our prince of caterers. Every Chrls:ma3 season he brings out from New York a batet of fowls rrhose tenderness makes them "roll like sweet morsels under the tongue," and this year he has made unusual drafts on the metropolis. Our housekeepers cannot do better than make au early application to him, while many a Christmas dinner may be made the more excellent by his manipulations. Warm Your Heart?, As Well! What is Christmas without a cosy Ure, and what makes a cosier Are with Christmas pictures in it than a grate full of Franklin red ash coal ? F. P. Seignious has just received four hundred tons of the finest that ever came to Charleston. What would gladden the heart of some poor man like a preseut of a ton? Try lt and get happy. Clothing. Anyanicleln the clothing Hue suitable for a Christmas present may he obtained from those relia! i o merchant tailors, Messrs. Menke A Muller, No. 321 Klug street. You win ?i d there every? thing necessary for the outfit of a gentleman of j fashion who desires to attend a Christmas party or moke New Year's calls. A comfortable over? coat or a neck-tie, a One suit of clothes or a box of j paper collars, pair of socks or box of handker? chiefs; any of these are handy to have in the house during the holiday season, and the man who happens not to have all or any of them will be bad off Indeed. Menke A Muller will give you as good a bargain as you can get lu the city. Toys. Forreston'.? Bazaar, Nc. 621 King street, makes a specialty of toys, and his stock has the merits of exceUence and variety., Particular attention le called to his supply of dolls. His ls one of the places where jou get your money back. Chenp Groceries. The Co operative Grocery Store holds out un? usual Inducements to purchasers ot every thing good In the linc of edlb'es. The stock ts large, well selected aud disi lajed, and the clerks are models of courtesy and dispatch. It ls a time for bargain?, an 1 there is some comfort in making them uader such auspicious circumstances. Here's Your Fruit. Brookbank*, on Meeting street, near Queen, sorely tempts every rather and mother who walks by his door, to say nothing of the urchins. Thc bunches of bananas, ripe and mellow, that hang there; the golden-colored oranges; the candles, nuts and Northern fruit thats\are one In the face, make you wish you were all htomach and pocket? book. A fruitful man Ls Bror.kbanks. The Pince for Sick Furniture. But for Lunsrord, on Queen street, the demor alization or local chairs, sofas, bedsteads, desks and sowing machines would be perpetual and ruinous. Fortunately for our citizens, however, Mr. Lunsrord has established a sort of hospital for diseased 'furniture, and with all the cunning of art, he p'.oduces convalescence to a degree that makes his patients look even better than new. A Turkey Rattle. To night there will be a grand raille for turkeys at Fehrenbach's. on Broad street. The chances are cheap, and those who do not wish to be last on the Hst should Invest early to-day.
