Having an experience of ten years in the business I flatter myself to be able to give perfect satisfaction in every case, otherwise, no charge will be made.  I shall always keep on hand a general assortment of Cases, Plain and Fancy.  I have also on hand a large stock of Jewelry, such as Lockets, Breast Pins, Finger Rings, &c., suitable for Pictures, which I am determined to sell at reduced rates.  All in want of any thing in that line will find it to their interest to call before purchasing elsewhere.
