In this store and building.
All the space previously occupied by

into one room, lighted at front and rear
The floor was dropped foot, bringing
IL only one step above the sidewalk and
giving additional height to the walls
In addition 70 this there was taken Into

pied by the savings bank, and newly
built extension to the building, thus In
cressing the floor space more than fifty
per cent. A portion OF this additional
space IL occupied by goods, the rest by
an office and a laboratory.
The door Of the remodeled store is OF
hard pine. The walls are colored In a
delicste tint. and the steel ceiling In a
hsrmonizing tint. The store il heated
by steam, and lighted by some forty In
candescent lights.
The permanent cases, shelves and
drawers are finished in cypress on the
natural wood. The prescription case Mt
the rear Of the store and six standing
showcases are OF antique finish qusrtered
oak, with plste glass sides. tops and
shelves. As a matter OF possible interest
IL may he mentioned that the amount OF
| plate glass in windows and showcases IL
no less than 6a5 squsre feet.
Special provision IL made for Increased
accommodations for the soda trade. An
elegant new fountain stands little back
Of the position OF tbs old one, and
around IL curves twenty-five feet Of
handicapped counter, supplied with
seats so that fifteen may be served COM
fortsblv AZ one time.
Two new cash registers are used, q
smsll one NJ the soda counter, while the
other, for general use, IA OF the most
approved pattern, aud does automati-
cslly about everything that y machine
can do, keeping separate record oil
each clerks sales, and doing all its work
without outside assistance except the
pressing Of buttons To record each sale.
When the work Is completed, the re-
cessed entrance Of the store will be tiled,
with the n4me Of the firm set into the
thing in nickel letters.
Altogether il Is store which would
