thing is now in readiness and people
may expect to see one of the finest and
best stores of the kind in the state Of

Every thing is complete and so well
arranged as to at once strike the spec
tator that this is no idle boast.
This department is located in the
Miles Granite block next door to his
we'll known dry goods store and in the

the block thus giving ample light and
air.
On the right as one enters are sever
al oaKen cases with sliding glass doors.
Here will be found the silk shirt
waists. Each waist is on hanger
and separate from all the others. This
gives an excellent opportunity to In
spect the garments and yet keep them

In large oaken cases further down
in the store are to be found the ladies
walking skirts, suits, cloaks, etc.,
each on separate hanger all by itself,
thus permitting each garment to be
taken out for inspection without dis
turbing the others. A full line OF
misses spring.jackets and children's
coats is also similarly shown.
In the front Of the store on the
left is large triple mirror to enable
person trying on a garment to see
herself well. On shelves back Of a
counter in the rear Of the store on the
same side is carried the cotton shirt
waists and petticOatS.
There is also private room where
women may try on garments II they
so desire, furnished with large mir.
ror on the wall. There is also toilet
room near by for the exclusive use OF
the women patrons Of the store. In
the rear of tho store will be kept a
full line Of lace curtains.
The stock Of ready made garments
now in stock In this new store is not
exceeded for quantity or quality by
any store In this state. Barre may
well be proud Of this new store.
