Millett, Evans Sc lCo. were disVrlou' .,
goods in the new store so wen was WY
work done that an old mechanic salu 'n0ro

The magnitude OF the work will be uhoei-
stood when we say that the old store, the IL
brary of the Mechanics Association, ana INC
corridor were thrown into one great seole'
153 feet high, covering 5000 square feet. Inc
front was changed into plate glass 'front.'
A solid brick partition wall, so feet thlcK'

street where 25 foot entrance was. maze,
with walls two feet thick. A stone wall was
also moved in the cellar. Fixtures ana
cherry counters were put in, and all this

weeks.
The store is IS feet front on Congress
street and 80 feet deep, but widens very
quickly to Sc feet. The widened store is sup
ported by six iron columns 1t is lighted by
day by its great plate glass front on Con-
gress street, and by an equally wide glass
front on Casco street, with two large win
dows at the side of the store facing the Cas-
co street entrance. The store is without
doubt one of, if not theIbest lighted store in
the city. At night it is lighted by nine
gaseliers.of two lights each. 1t is thorough
ly ventilated and heated by steam. The
capacious cellar is dry and contains water
conveniences. The walls are delicately
tinted but not too much to absorb light. On
the left of the store very pretty toilet
room for ladies has been constructed.
On entering the store from Congress str eet
will be found the hosiery and glove depart
ment, under the charge of Miss Julia st :
pies. Then the underwear for ladies, gentle

goods in the rear occupying space of fifty
feet. Opposite the dress goods is space of
thirty feet for black goods, velvets and
trimmings. The centre of the rear of the
store is devoted to cloakings and suitings.

handsomest departments in the store devoted
to buttons and trimmings.

have charge of the domestics, Mr.. j. Park
