CONNOLLY & WALLACE'S NEW STORE
Most Complete and Best Equipped in
This Part of Tho StDte.


Today Connolly & Wallace, who for
five years have conducted their dry
goods business at 2O9 Washington ave-
nue., will present for public inspection
one of the finest equipped store rooms
In Northeastern Pennsylvania, situated
at Nos. 127 and 129 in the new Connell
building on Washington avenue. A
visit to the store last evening, when
the finishing touches to the prepara-
ton for today's opening were being
made by the army of employees, dis
played the full possibilities of this en-
ergetic firm, assisted as ii now is by
every known convenience to the carry
ing on of q mammoth business.
The store room is 40x150 feet in di-
mensions, with added space in the rear
The ceiling is high and free from un-
slightly trolleys and guy" wires, the
new cash system to be used i'm the store
removing this Objectionable feature. In
the rear are the private offices for b.
+. Connolly and Fl. G. Wallace, the
firm members, and also the bookkeep-
ers department and ladies' fitting
room. The store is divided into four
distinct parts. each having sub-sec-
tions for the display of special goods.
On the left upon entering are the
umbrella, notions, dress goods and silks
and velvets departments and on the
right gents furnishings, ladies' hosiery
and underwear, linens and white goods
and domestic cotton goods are shown.
The left center Is taken up with laces,
ribbons, handkerchiefs; the right CEN
ter with corsets and kid gloves. A
second section has Innings, wash goods,
underwear and skirts, and in the rear
is the bed department, showing COM
fortables, blankets, etc. Furs and
cloaks are in the l. in the rear
BY day the store is lighted by two
large skylights and by night ten in
candescent arc lights, of an improved
pattern, and ten six-globed chandel-
iers give an effect of natural sunlight.
The furnishings are all of hard oak of
a special design.
The Pneumatic Cash system for the
first time introduced into any store
building in this part of the state, is a
great improvement over any other ar
rangement. In operation the system is
wonderful and will certainly attract
general notice. All that can be seen
of the machine in the store room are
the stations" at each section OF the
store and the brass terminal in the
cash department The clerk places a
cartridge" as the cash boxes are
| called, into the brass tube at the "sta.
tion" and in second or so the cart
ridge drops into a box on the cashier
desk.
After change is made the cartridge
is returned as silently and mysterious
ly before. The propelling force is air

A mistake was made in this column
few days ago in speaking of the
drive across from the Boulevard to the
reservoir and around to Scranton by
way of the South Side. 1t should have
been mentioned that no young man
should be allowed to take a young
woman over that road unless she is
"only a sister to him." and therefore
not likely to detract his attention from
his horse, for just as sure as he al
lows his gaze to waver and the lines
to loosen, down the whole outfit will
go over the precipice unless the horse
is warranted to walk a chalf line, or
never swerve a hairs breadth from
the road. At least this state of affairs
would prevail for a mile or two after
leaving the new dam, where the road
is so narrow that if you We're driving
and met a biryclist he would simply
have to climb under the horses and
vehicle and devise some method of
pulling his wheel after him. But any,
way it's delightful road, even if it is
a trifle exciting. The writer of this ar
tlcle has been demonstrated with for
telling about the glories of this drive in
the first place because all the girls
now expect their friends to ask them
10 drive in that direction, and it is ex-
pensive. So this postscript is added in
the way of an adjustment of the mat
ter.
