away without visiting that great mercan-
tile institution, the z. c. M. I. And what
an institution it is The largesti in the union
west of Chicago if. indeed it is not the
largest of its kind in the whole country.
Certain it is that none rank higher in COM
mercial circles a walk through the great
building occupies considerable time, as 1T IS
yeritabe world of itself. And what q
wonderful Kaleidoscope effect is seen.
What an admirable system has accom-
plished. How easily everything moves.
Crowds wander in all directions through
the various departments, employees move
about with the percision of machine. So
there never is confusion, and each and
every one who visits it marvels as to how
it is DONE
The business from small beginning has
grown TO enormous proportions. This re-
suit has been attained by handling nothing
but the best qualities of goods in each of
the several departments. Some time ago
the institution began the erecti n of a
building on the north side of its great
store room in order that some of the de-
partmeDts might have more space to dis
play their goods This was necessary in
their retail clothing and shoe departments,
and also to give more room for the queens
ware, grocery and stove parts of the bust
ness. This building has been completed,
and the retail
CLOTHING AND BOOTS AND SHOES
has been removed. The room that these de-
partments now occupy is 65xlOO feet. 1t IS,
admirably lighted, and the finish is in oak,
making a magnificent room for these two
departments. The display of clothing for
men and boys is such an one found no

to dress one comfortable aud neat. There
is shown everything that is new in style,
quality and workmans hip-all good, al de-
sirable.
| Then, too, the line of gents furnishing
| goods shown are the best the eastern mar
ket affords one of the specialties being the
celebrated brand of Grown collars and
cuffs, as good as the best, and at q lower
/ figure than So called CHEST brands are sold.
The hat depar ment also occupies space
III the new building, and the well-known
/ Stetson hatis shown in all the shapes. as
also the celebrated Marsland English hats.
Ii one can't be fitted out here it would be
useless to go elsewhere.
The south part Of the new room is given
up to the
RETAIL SHOE DEPARTMENT.
and enables them to carry three times the
amount of stock heretofore carried. They
are agents for Laird, Schroeder and
Mitchell, of Philadelphia, ladies' fine
shoes; e. p. Reed & Co., and Williams &
Hoyt, OF Rochester, misses and children s
fine shoes; j. S. Turner 81 Co., of Rock
land Mass, mems fine shoes; Hathaway,
Soul and Harrington, mems shoes and last
but not least Their own make of these
gooos. Their display is one Of the finest
ever shown here and the arrangement Of
stock on the shelves for easy and conven-
lent handing is complete ip every detail,
making it the most complete shoe house in
the country. The removal of these depart
ments permits Of the removal OF the
GLASS AND oUEENswARE DEPARTMENT
to the main storeroom, WI ere space of
50x10O feet is given to the department..
This increased amount of room gives
extra facilities tor the handling of glass
and queensware. The stock shown, like
many others, is very complete. The dis
play of lamps, both hanging and stand, as
also piano, is very handsome one, while
the china and glassware are so artistically
arranged that one is 10th to leave this por
ton of the store where so many beautiful
articles are displayed. The
JEwELRY, s1LvERwARE AND ART ROOM
has also been removed to the main store
room opposite the queensware department.
and here also many beautiful, artistic anc
shelf and in showcases. The removal Of
this department enIarges the
GROCERY DEPARTMENT
very materially, and expedites the more
rapid handling Of goods there, as it also
gives opportunity to make a little display
of the fancy groceries, which has made the
Coop famous. Over in the
STOVE DEPARTMENT
more room has been made on account Of
the several changes above noted, and en-
ables them TO make a magnificent exhibit
of stoves, and this coupled with the fac
that they carry the best line of stove!
made, makes this department very at
tractiye one. The
DRY GOODS DEPARTMENT
still occupies the mammoth room in tn,
centre of the block, and is now in all tn,
glory and coloring OF spring goods that de
light every woman and child and which
causes many men 10 think that they, tco
! could bedeck themselves in some OF th
beautiful fabrics shown. AS is said above
the whole OF L. G. NJ. !. is the marvel ant
wonder of ali who visit it.
