Egg-nog is & favorite, invigorating and healthy beyeredze. and isexceedingly popular at this season of the year. But as the poet has truly said.««What’s maname.” Sothat popular as is egg-nogg, an inferior article is not by any means appre- ciable. To be good, it must be well made, and what ts of equal, if not greater importance, the materials must be good. Knowing, therefore, the importance of a good article of egg-nogg, or a line article of wine, brandy or whiskey, } ticularly when families wish to r ive the friends in a spirit of true hospitality, and in a way calculated to do honor to the hostas well as tothe guest, we deem it proper to state for the information of our readers that Mr. C. W. Campbell, dealer in wines. bi Scotch and frish whiskeys, No.29 E Wi lard’s Hotel, has the b iors in this city, and it 1s but justice to state that Mr. C. is just the person to do justice to his patrons. 6 tr aS Tre FEET.—l.oss of health, energy, temper, and good looks, are the inevitable conse- quences of neglect of disordered feet. To all afflicted we would advise a call at Dr. White's Rooms, No. 424 Pennsylvania avenue, between 4% and 6th streets.
