FRED HOLBR0OK's BOOTH
So Artistic and Pleasing That One
Forgets It's an Advertisement.

If you want to see what an artistic dec
orator and a man of taste can do to
make display of shoes pretty, gen.
uine picture, that almost entirely robs
the display of the idea that it is in
tended for an advertisements, take ii
look at the booth of Fred Holbrook, the
shoe man, who sells Leather Shoes at
p n. Main street. The back and two
sides of the booth are draped in cerse
and white, the draIery being in the shape
of diamonds, the cerise diamonds al
te:nating with white diamonds. In each
diamond is a wreath of green vines. and
in each wreath is solitary shoe. All the
shoes are of the 'Sorosis'' AXE. In fact,
it is Corosis shoe booth. Every pretty
shape and style and leather in which
Sorosis comes, is shown here. On the
floor of the booth are many stands and
each stand holds one Sorosis shoe.
Fred Holbrook has a cinch on this
popular make of lady's shoe. The steady
growth of the Holbrook shoe store shows
that a specialist in commerce in conf
merce, the same as in medicine or law is
bound to win out. All Holhrooks time
and interests are fastened up in the shoe
business with the result that when the
people who are judges Of shoes, want a
f1rst-class shoe, best value for least
money and newest style, they go to Hol-
brooks.

LUTEY BROS. BOOTH
A Glittering, Tempting Mass
Canned and Glass Jar Edibles.

If any merchant in Butte doubts the
merits of advertising let him stand near
the booth of Lutey Bros, the West Park
street cash grocers, and hear the num-
her of out-of-tOwn people asking about
the booth. Everybody know "Lutey's,"
yet it is only about three years ago that
they took a rundown store, and opened
up with first-class stock of fine gro
ceries( and established a strictly cash
method. Older heads wagged, and said
that owing to the mines all paying by
the month. a cash store would not sue
coed. in Butte. But the Luteys had
faith that their ability to undersell
credit stores would overcome all objec-
tions to the cash system. That they We're
wise in their generation is shown by the
fact that they have grown like a mush-
room. until today they have more than
double their former store room, and
their delivery system alone requires
large force of men and wagons and
horses. Their delivery service is as
prompt as postal delivery.
Besides groceries. they have a steam
bakery and a splendid meat market. 1t
has got to be a by-word in Butte that

if it's at Lueey's, it's good to eat" The
cash system gives the best goods at
credit prices for inferior stuff. The
monthly wage earners have found out
that it is money in their pockets to buy
for cash Mt Lutey's. The system has
taught them economy and encouraged
thrift The Lutey system of getting
fresh vegetables, eggs, butter. and
cream direct. is a perfect chain from
supply to consumption; and the fact
that the farmer, the dairyman. and the
poultry raiser. know where there is
steady market all the time, encourages
them In producing the best, and in ship
ping in the best manner.
Their enormous trade enables .he Lu-
teys to buy in great quantities, which.
of course, means the lowest prices. which
in turn enables them to sell cheaper than
smaller stores. and yet make a fair
profit. The firm estimates that it saves
households fully 20 per cent by their low
prices, only possible on the cash system.

perfect cigar-first, best as to tobacco;
and, second, best as to perfection of

solely to the merits of the cigar. AS it
becomes better known there is no doubt
that it will have preference in Butte,
