Dreyfus' Department Store.

[
 Dreyfus, is one of the few estab- lishments of the city that does not have "openings,' but rather brides
 itself that it is always open and this place today was in the nature of 8 reception to the friends of the firm than a formal spring opening. The display Of goods in the various depart ments was tastily made. The vari- ous departments were decorated with blooming spring flowers set off by ors of the early spring flowers were reflected in the silk and dress goods Every display was complete, and all reflected an air of quiet elegance and artistic taste, in keeping with the character of the store.
 There was not department, per haps, in the entire establishment which did not attract it's throng of in- terested visitors, although, as would naturally be the case, the larger crowds of ladies were to be seen dur ing the day in the department de- voted to the sale of ready-made gar ments, where the styles authoritative ly set by the leading modistes of New York and Paris were shown ill the seasons leading colors and fabrics. In this department a most complete showing is made, ranging from the 1aunty little house jackets and waists i through every variety of gown for house and street wear, up to the more 1 elaborate creations desigen for recep- tions or formal society functions.
 Every other department was equal ly representative of the scope of. the business done by the firm On the ground floor the ginghams, linens and cotton dress goods rivaled in coloring the silks on the floor above, while on other floors dainty lingerie and the thousands of other articles for my lady's wear were attractively dis played.
