APPAREL HOUSE
Open TO PATRONS
Gross Establishment at 0'Far.
reII and Stockton Streets
Is Up to Date

San Francisco witnessed yesterday
the opening of a cloak and suit house
modern in appointments, designed. built
the foremost houses in the worlds
great centers and equipped TO eater TO
the women of this city with a stock
embodying the latest in styles. Gross
apparel house, at the southwest corner
OF O'Farrell and Stockton streets. threw
open its doors to the public with a
complete assortment of moderate priced
cloaks, suits, waists and all that goes
with a fully stocked store of its kind.
OCCUPIES THREE STORES
While the store intends to self at very
reasonable prices, its proprietors, David,
L. W. and NJ Gross, determined to have
il equipped in the most pleasing way,
both IN the quality of goods sold and in
the home in which the trading would be
carried on. The result of this deter
mination is seen on each of the three
floors, that are devoted entirely to the
business.
Entrances are on both O'FarrelI and
Stockton streets, and an elevator, in
addition to A richly carpeted stairway,
makes access to all floors easy. The
ground floor is devoted chiefly to waists,
and mirrored booths insure privacy to
customers examining goods. The finish
here is in eastern white oak, with a
French gray or natural finish, in which
contrasting bits of ebony are set. The
carpet is old rose color and the whole
makes a rich effect.
Royal blue carpet covers the second
floor, which is finished in mahogany, in
laid with white maple. Cloaks and
suits take prominence here.
ALTERATION FEATURE
1t is on the third and top floor that
the most unique features of the store,
perhaps, are seen. Here is a large,
spacious and extremely well lighted
alteration room, so arranged that all
the light there is aids the skilled force
OF alterators in doing their very best
work. Immediately upon stepping from
the elevator. however, one is in a large
rest room and corridor, off which open
four large appointment rooms, where
there is every convenience for fitting.
These tapestry rooms are in various
shades. One is finished in old rose.
another in red, third in royal blue
and the fourth in a pleasing green.
Throughout the store are silver chan
deliers with cut glass nangings.
L. w. Gross, one of the firm here but
also the proprietor of prominent cloak
and suit store in Seattle, is in the city
aiding in the opening.
