in making it one of the finest
largest retail establishments in
.C6e South. The well merited growth
of their business during the past
three years has made it necessary for
them to acquire more room, and on
May l they arranged to add the en-.
tire adjoining store building.
The new and old store will be
completely remodeled. The additions
planned will make store five hun.
dred feet long, which will turn the
entire establishment into an arcade.
Two hundred and fifty feet of this
will be two and three stories high
and so feet wide, and the other 25O
feet will be two stories high and rs
feet wide. This makes possible a
perfect ventilation that will preserve
a comfortable temperature even on
the warmest days of the year.
The alterations will practically
double the firms present floor space,
making in all 10000 square feet.
Many of the departments, which
have heretofore been somewhat
cramped, will be moved to new and
more convenient locations, where
there will be ample room to expand {,
as it is reasonable to expect that they
will do.
Louis Cohen h Go will also add
several new departments in the re-
modelled store, besides carrying much
more extensive stocks in the lines
formerly carried.
The newly arranged store will
open next fall with a complete new
stock, as, before then, every piece OF
merchandise will be sold out for
what it will bring. The firm is now
starting an alteration sale for the
purpose of reducing their stock to
make room for the workmen and the
changes necessary.-Ne'cs d Courier.
