CHANGES At The Big STORE
MANY IMPROVEMENTS TAKING

land-SheIves Dome way with.

In the big store of the Edward NAL
ley company the changes and shifting
of departments that are now taking
place will, when completed, make the
big Store" one of the handsomest and
up-to-date department stores II New
England.
To get the best effect in department
of a store like Malley's the goods should
be exhibited on tables rather than on
shelves and 1t Is with this intention
that the changes are being made In
several Of the large departments.
A big force of carpenters and decor
ators have been at work for several
days making the alterations.
Last month was inventory month and
it was found that a surplus stock of
over $51, 900. which will be disposed OF
at very reasonable rates, as it must all
be sold to make way for the new spring
stocks.
A novel effect of column decoration
has been devised and will soon be put
into operation. The Doric columns Will
be alternated In the Corinthian style,
the capitals being made very ornate.
Moreover the latest thing in color dec
Grafton will be tried. The combination
of aluminium and laquer is said to pre-
sent a handsome effect. The public
will soon have opportunity to judge If
the taste of the management Of the big
store is correct on this point.
The cloaks and suits go into the most
elegant quarters In New England.
Mahogany finishing after the Colonial
style will make the parlors as fine as
any anywhere. New hard wood floors
will be laid, Elaborate arrangements
cases, divans around pillars with ele
CANT rugs upon the floors are few of
the additions that the company will
make to make a visit from their GUS
toners pleasant and convenient. New
fitting rooms and new work room on
a meZZanine floor is the manner in
which the employees Of the big store will
be benefited by the changes.
The book department has new shelves,
new tables, and more of both, further
to the east in the store, near where the
millinery counters are. The arrange
ment gives book lovers better oppor-
tunity to inspect the stock and more
freedom of movement than was posi-
Bile before.
The corset department goes over to
the muslin and underwear ! counters
where the department will be comfort
ably taken care Of in a sort Of court.
A special department for infants wear
has been created here.

The present campaign in South AZ

the military authorities have had of
putting the cycle corps to real test
AS scouts and skirmishers they have
proved most useful. The cyclist corps
attached to the Durham light infantry
recently covered routesof 90 miles in
one day for the purpose of obtaining
information of the Beer forces, doing
no small amount of fighting on the
way. The rapidity of their movement
startles the enemy, who ought to be
unable to cope with the tactics cycle
corps adopts. They seem able to get

ming Gown another vessel. lie had pre-
vioush been subjected to the lIolmgren
test, which consists of matching col
ored woods, and after the narrow es-
cape noted he was again subjected to
the test. and on both occasions passed
successfully. The author then goes on
to state that this form of defective
vision IS moi so uncommon, and be con-

test be devised, so as to exclude unfit
persons from the merchant marine
