An Uninterrupted Business Career of As Years
Seems to Be Worthy OF Brief Reference

10Th Street, IS very nearly centrally TO-
Gated. If YOU were to look at the map OF
Manhattan YOU would discover that we
are just three-quarters OF mile from
the actual centre OF the island. making
our establishment easy OF access to all
OF the purchasing public. At the same
time, the cost of maintaining this eStab-
lishment in the way OF expensive real
estate investments and rentals is min
inized to such an extent that we are
enabled to sell our goods at very much
lower prices than prevail in the stores
located on the expensive thoroughfares
OF this city
This week we invite YOU to our
Forty-fifth Annual Exposition. We
have been furniture specialists all
these years, and it stands to reason that
we know something about the business
and that we know something of the
prices that prevail for first class ar
ticle. Our customers have been good
enough to say of us that they regard
Our establishment as better equipped in
stock than any other similar establish
ment they have ever visited. This is a
compliment when YOU consider the
other magnificent stores in New York
city and in the country at large.
Another thing worthy OF note in this
connection is the fact that, notwith-
standing the panics that have occurred
during the 40 years of the business
existence of this store, each year has
shown a satisfactory increase in bust
ness over the previous year, which is
record, in our opinion, unexampled in
the history OF merchandising in this
country.
We are constantly striving for better
ment IN Our store management We are
everlastingly aiming at perfection-not
that we have attained it, by any means,
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1901-09-15

but we are on taIr road to attain 1t.
Inventors have tried to make machines
that would move perpetually -in other
words, they have tried to discover the
theory OF perpetual motion. They have
not quite succeeded. No merchant has
ever quite attained perfection, which. in
other words, Is perpetual motion" in
merchandising. We NAV attain it some
day, but as long as we are struggling
Tor this our customers are getting the
best OF service, the best of stock, and
the best results OF store management.
We ask that you visit the store this
week and become acquainted not only
with Our progressive methods OF doing
business. but with the fine assortments
we carry. We are certain that such a
visit will be beneficial TO YOU We do
not want 10 unduly persuade people to
forsake other stores TO come 10 us, be-
cause there IS room enough in this big
city for the success of all OF us, but we
do ask the people OF Greater New York
to come and visit us ANYWAY, whether
they desire to make purchases or moi.
1t is always good advertising and good
management TO let the people know
what you have got to sell. \ feature OF
this exhibition will be the practical
demonstration of artistic decorating
and furnishing as applied TO the mod
ern apartment. A model seven room
suite has been newly constructed on
the third floor OF our ten story annex
for the benefit OF purchasers.
The services and suggestions of an
expert decorator are yours gratis, the
selections made by you being arranged
under his competent supervision while
you wait. An unusual opportunity to
illustrate to you the effectiveness and
harmony OF your purchases as they
should appear in your own home.

ton was at the head of the organization
40 years ago. The experience acquired
during that time is of immense benefit
now.
The business has grown by successive
stages from very small beginning I'M
til now the public knows pretty gen
orally how big and successful it is. The
business has always kept abreast of the
times, if it has not always been ahead
of the times.
This was the pioneer furniture store
in America. It is now the Greatest
Furniture Store in America. Its pur-
chasing power is therefore enormous.
1t enables us to offer the best in Furni-
ture, Carpets. Upholstery, Draperies
and Housefurnishings at the lowest
prices in America. 1t has been more
liberal IN its treatment OF the public
than any other store we know of. and
we presume we will be pardoned for
making this statement, since back of it
is truth.
Years ago we foresaw the growth of
the present neighborhood in which this
establishment OF ours is located. We
foresaw also that to maintain business
OF our character on the expensive thor
oughfares OF New York city would
eventually mean the expenditure of
enormous sums in property rentals,
thereby compelling us to charge higher
prices for our goods. The wisdom of
this foresight is demonstrated now.

damage to telegraph lines and
everything else in connection with
the track and its operation. But
two of the new steel bridges pu,

Typhoid r.v., . p,.v.n..s,. Di.....

The fifth report of the Colorado
State Board OF Health for the year
1900, calls particular attention to
the prevalence of typhoid fever,
and says emphatically that it is a
preventable disease. That it is
essentially a water.b born disease,
and that milk never carries the
typhoid germ unless it is contami-
mated with polluted water. 1t also
goes on to say that mo matter
how filthy the premises, or how
badly drained, or how unsanitary
any of the other conditions are if
this minute bacillus is not present
in the water, typhoid fever will not
develop, and therefore il behooves
the people to see that their drink.
