ADLER a. BROS
New Boot and Shoe Store at No 2GI Main
street, Leubrie Bros Old stand. ,

This store has been refitted and furnished
in the most complete and attractive style
and stC cSed with the most choice line of
boots and shoes that ample MEANS long prac-
teal experience and sound judgment could
secure. The characteristic good taste Of
Messrs. A. & s. Adler is to be noticed in every
departing mt of their establishment, from the
front entrance TO the rear door. In the i'm
mediate front are two large French plate
glass show-windows, which exhibit in one a
full line OF ladies wear, aud in the other
that for gentlemen. The dressing OF these
windows, the arrangement of the goods, would
repay a long, tedious walk TO anyone.
On entering the establishment ones stten-
ton is drawn 10 the complete combination
OF shelving, screens and settees together with
pink-tinted walls, a snow-white ceiling, with
The most attractive star-shaped centers for
the gas pendants, long seventy-fye feet strips
OF alternate mating, oil cloth and Brussels
carpets, which are reflected at proper inter
walls by large mirrors The front half (sey-
enty- five fe, y OF the store is for ladies and
children. On either side and Immediately
in front of the entrance are the most orna-
mental screens, which give privacy to all
parts of the establishment without in the
least obScuring the view. Just in the rear
OF each front show-window are settees, velvet
Brussel rugs and large, full-length mirrors,
with an additional small mirror finishing
the end OF each counter shelving. In the
center of the room and extending with it
are other settles, ottomans and stools for the
convenience and comfort OF ladies, chill
dren and customers. The absence of
counters in the entire establishment il
most agreeable and enjoyable, as it
permits Of the customers closely scanning
the goods as they are found on the shelves,
and facilitates the salesman in serving his
patrons. On the north side and at the center
of the store IS a most complete toilet-room
for the ladies' which when one enters COM
pletely surrounds them with mirrors, beside
containing all the little conveniences neces-
sary for the arranging Of ones toilet.
Slightly to the rear of the toilet-room, and
in the center of the store is a circular wrap
ping counter. with a cashiers desk attached
in the center and facing to the front. In the
rear half of this establishment less snowy
but equally comfortable and convenient "gen-
tleman department" has been prepared, where
all such goods as gents, youths or boys wear
are Conveniently arranged. The entire ap-
pearance of this house has no superior and
few equals in the South, and only reflects
the taste and good judgment of the
proprietors in their selection of boots and
shoes, which are in greater variety, larger
quantities and more choice than were ever
presented TO a Memphis public. To their
former patrons it is not necessary TO COM
mend them; to strangers and the public at
large, we say that at Adler & Bros new store,
No. 26l Main street, eau be had every style,
price and kind Of boot or shoe TO be desired,
and at the very lowest prices
