The Star Clothing store.

Here is an establishment that we are
proud of and we feel that 1t is entitled
to most liberal mention in our review
of the business interests of Norfolk.
They carry stock of clothing and
mems furnishings that suit our people
exactly, and they meet all honorable
competition. Hence our residents have
special advantages as to prices and
quality in dealing with the Star.
Every year sees an increase in this
business, and an establishment like this
is benefit to the entire community.
This is one of the busiest stores in town,
and its doors are always on the swing.
There is displayed most complete as
sortmet of mems, boys and children's
wearing apparel in every style, design,
variety and pattern, including all the
most recent fabrics both in fine and
medium grades and nothing in the way
of inferior shoddy is allowed on the
shelves or counters. They have thor
ough and comprehensive knowledge of
the trade in all its branches. Efficient
and courteous employees attend to custo-
mers promptly and politely. 1t is in every
sense of the word a metropolitan con-
cern and reflects the greatest credit not
only on the proprietors but also on the
general mercantile interests OF Norfolk
The windows are tastefully and attract
lively arranged and invariably draw the
attention of the passerby. Space will

with all the details of portrait and pic
ture making one glance through his

addition to photography he is giving
special attention to water colors, ink

impress of the master artist. Mr.. Macy
is fully up with the times as he is MAX
ing all of the latest things in either
glaze or platino finish, the latter giving
a beautiful carbon effect and it can be
fairly said that in the finer branches of

The enterprise is of much benefit to
the town, it paying out on an average

the vicinity of Norfolk, which in return
is distributed among the merchants OF
the town for the necessaries of life.
They always give the farmer the benefit
