Everything in Good TRINA Great
Improvement"
Under the above caption the Cum
berland NeDs of Monday publishes the
following notice of Cumberland's most
prominent and successful business
house. The proprietor, always a
thorough-eoer in enterprise, has set
business men in this section a con-
spicuous example of taste, energy and
variety of methods in winning trade.
He provides immense stocks of attrac-
tive goods, sells at one price to all alike
and employs the best mediums of COM
municating his advantages to the
public-the newspapers. The Meas
says:
Yes, improvement is the order of the day,
in all departments of trade in the city. No
where are there better signs of the general
advancement among business men than are to
be found ate the mammoth shoe store of
Samuel J. Edwards. His constant increase
of business has made it almost impossible to
carry out his plans for making the store per-
feet in its appointments, metropolitan in its
appearance and convenience, as a first class
shoe store. Years of toll and industry have
made it necessary to arrange and remove
departments from one place to another from
time to time until it became essential to have
the store room SO arranged that the con-
venience of the patrons of the store was as
much, if not more. an item of importance to
Mr.. Edwards than an arrangement that
would merely adapt itself to the utility of a
well arranged store-keeper. Mr.. Edwards

In the front of the store, to the right, are
eight cane-seated revolving chairs placed on
the floor, covered with handsome moquet
carpet This is the fitting department for
ladies, misses and children. Here lady can
talk with the salesman, by tuning on the
chair she can try on the shoe with even more
comfort than at home. There are also two
plush covered sofas in this place Time is an
important factor with ladies when they 60
shopping, and the annoyance in former days
of sending pair of shoes back and forward
from the store to the home is obviated by the
new idea of fitting the shoes at the store
which has made a revolution in the shoe
business, and all tirst-class dealers are re-
quired to have such place i'll their stores
Mr.. Edwards grasped the idea and with his
usual good taste has the most perfect fitting
department in the city.
In the rear of the same side of the store is
the gentlemen's department, which has al
elegant place for fitting shoes. The hat de
