THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTThe trade in groceries is one of the most important in this country and gives employment to a large number of persons and employs a vast amount of capital. Prominent in the business is the well known house of Mr. W. Gurges, No. 2297 Second Avenue, who succeeded the firm of Messrs. Ray & Gurges. The store occupied has a handsome double front with large plate-glass windows, while within the extensive stock is arranged in the most systematic and thorough manner. The stock contains a full and complete assortment of choice teas from China and Japan, fragrant coffee from Java, South America and Mocha, canned goods of every description, sugars, spices, condiments, fruit and vegetables in their season, choice wines, liquors and cigars. Foreign and domestic fruits and confectionery form a feature of the store, and there has been nothing omitted to make this establishment first-class in all its appointments. These articles are not surpassed in quality and freshness by any house in this city, and they are sold at the lowest possible cash prices, the proprietor being satisfied with a small margin of profit. Mr. Gurges is a very popular and liberal business man. and is highly esteemed in social and commercial life for his sterling integrity and probity and justly merits the success which has attended his well-directed efforts.
