| TEXT | The attention that has been directed to the production of fine furniture in this country during the past few years has developed the fact that American skill and inventive genius are quite as successful in this art as they have proved in many others. Of the marked improvement in the culture and general good taste of the public, no more convincing proof is to be found than by a visit to an establishment such as that conducted by Mr. Walter F. Stratton, of this city, and a comparison of the furniture, bedding, and upholstery shown there with the best exhibited a quarter of a century ago. This house, which bears the marks of enterprise and judicious management, exercises an influence that extends far beyond the limits of this city, the trade extending throughout New York and New England. It was founded in 1878 by the present proprietor, and has since become a favorite resort for those whose tastes demand harmonious and fashionable furniture. The premises occupied are very spacious and comprise a splendid four-storied building with basement, which is replete with an extensive stock of modern and antique furniture, parlor, drawing-room and chamber suites, bedding and upholstery of every description, and in fact with everything that will add in any manner to the elegance and comfort of home. Though a specialty is made in fine furniture, it must not be supposed that the more serviceable kinds are forgotten. Mr. Stratton manufactures parlor furniture and cabinet work to order, repairs and upholsters at the shortest notice, and a resi dence furnished throughout from this establishment leaves the occupant absolutely nothing to wish for. Per sonally, the proprietor is a native of New York, and has made hosts of friends, in consequence of his geniality of disposition and sterling integrity. By the exercise of energy and enterprise this house has attained a prominence in the trade which is accorded only to those business operatives who are characterized by the first principles of mercantile honor. |
