store, will be seen in the new Bam-
berger restaurant.
The kitchens are among the most
complete in the country. Everything is
Of the most modern type. There are
few great hotels that can boast of 80
many new appliances. The walls and
floors are composed Of sanitary thing,
which may be washed the same as a
dish. A complete baking plant has
been installed.
The ovens, ranges, b~roilers, etc, are
of the most approved type.
The old-fashioned 'fice boxN is now
a thing Of the past. The refrigerators
in the new Bamberger kitchens are
equipped with coils which maintain an
even freezing temperature at all times.
No ice is allowed to come in contact
with any Of the meats or vegetables.
There will be about twenty-five peo-
pie employed In the kitchen alone, while
. eighty competent and obliging wait
resses will serve you quickly and noise
lessly.
Separated from the general r~estau-
rant by a glass wall, there will be a
large smoking restaurant where men
may enjoy the comforts of their after
dinner cigars.
Notwithstanding all this convenience,
cleanliness and luxury, there will be
no advance in prices.
EMPLOYEES WELFARE.
Time was, and not SO very long ago,
when merchants boosted of the fact
that they were "not in business for
their health" Not being in business
for their own health's sake, they were
naturally unmindful of the health of
others.
The merchant Of the modern school is
in business for his health and for the
health of those under him. Good health
begets an alert mind and alertness is
an asset nowadays.
The new Bamberger store contains a
we'll appointed employees restaurant,
where good food is served at very mod
crate prices. This restaurant is not a
cramped or lily lighted affair, either.

ated on the eighth floor, has the bene-
fit Of all the pure sunlight and fresh air

where the employees may gather during
the noon hour and read or rest or play
| games, as the spirit wills. This room
is also big and light and roomy.
There is also a well appointed hos
! pital in the new store, fully equipped
and in charge of a kindly nurse who
knows how to minister to those who are
i'll. There is also a regular physician
who attends employees in need of medi-
cal advice. All medicines are fur
nished free.
The lapatory features Of the new
store are probably without equal any
where. The employees will be provided
with twelve large Mushrooms in which
will be found hot and cold water and
plenty Of clean linen.
THE ELEVATORS.
A great store has its traffic problems
the same as a great city. In fact, a
/ store like Greater Bamberger's Is, in
reality a city in itself.
The new Bamberger Store has solved
the traffic problem for all time. The
| elevator and moving stairway systems
in the new building are as nearly ideal
as human skill can make them. They
represent the final word.
There are sixteen elevators in the
new Bamberger store; ten for passen-
gers; one for employees, and five for
freight. These elevators have an ag-
gregate capacity of $4,000 pounds, or
thirty-two tons.
The passenger elevators are divided
into two batteries of five each. One of
these batteries is located OF the Halsey
| street side of the new building, the
other is situated in the rear of the big
store midway between Washington and
Halsey streets.
The cars are 81a feet wide and 5h
feet deep. Every one who has ridden
in them marvels at their size. The
doors are of the new Vt eollapsible
type, which, when TO- back, prac-
tically open up tho vt of the
car. This mai egress
