FIVE
AND TEN CENT STORE

A business that has just been
launched in Washington. and which has
every prospect OF bright future. is
the Excelsior Five and Ten Cent Store.
which threw open its doors 10 the pub
lie for the first time on September 13.
The proprietor of the business is Mr..
w II. Michael. who has long been a
resident Of Washington. coming from
Frederick. Md. and who is we'll known
in the city as the operator OF the Mich
aeI Flour and Feed Mil, which he has
owned for number Of years.
The Excelsior's opening week was
just a forecast OF the business thIt has
been pouring IN ever since.
Mr. Michael carefully weighed the
situation when he decided that there
was ample room. and actually a need,
for such a firm on Seventh street as
that which he opened.
Although 51s Seventh street is quite
a large store. and has a large balcony
extending entirely around it. the whole
place is packed with a splendid stock
OF FIVE and ten cent goods. From the
varied line displayed and the excellent
quality OF the goods. one finds IL hard
to believe that there is nothing in the
store for which a charge greater than
10 cents Is made. An unusually pretty
line OF cfockery is 10 be found here;
also all kinds OF tinWare for kitchen
use. The many odds and ends TO he
found in a really nrst-clasS ten-cent
store add very materially 10 the COM
fort OF life and to the ease OF house
keeping. One seldom knows that he
has been needing certain things for a
long time until lac goes through one of
these complete novelty stores, There
he finds numerous 3 and 10 cent arti-
cles that he has really been causing
himself much annoyance by being with
out. Everyone is asked 10 take a look
through the Excelsior.
Mr.. Michel has not spared any ex-
pense In his effort to give the public
hrst-class place in every particular. enc
which they would be pleased TO remem-
Der. and which could have a right to
expect continued patronage.
