old FASHIONED ST.
VALENTINE DAY GONE

The old fashioned Valentines Day,
with 1t secret burnig love missives and
its bucoiic hurnor Is apparently on the
wane. judging from the class OF matter
that goes through the malls on the day.
The Valentine mail was as heavy
yesterday as in former years. heavier II
anything, but the bulk OF the matter
was made up OF fancy penny valentine.
popular among the school children.
There were apparently few high priced
creations. as compared with former
years when they first came in vogue.
The postal card valentine is grow
ing more and more popular. and the
person who gives any thought to the
day and his friends finds wide range
of sentiment and humor in the endless
selections.
One thing Is certain. the cheap
comic" which a rule was generally
more of an insult. than humor has had
it's day and is passing away rapidly
The manufacturers appreciate this and
OF late years their output has decreased
materially.

OLD STORE MADE NEW
TRANSFORMATION SCENE
Cheeves Bros. 81 Co. Have Remodel
ed Their Store and Added
Many New Features.

Almost a complete transformation
has lately taken place in the fash
ionable dry goods store of Cheeves
Bros. & Co., on South Rogers
street The changes which have
been made there give the store
new appearance, The work of re-
modelling the. interior was common
ced some time ago but has been
greatly delayed on account of bad
weather. The improvements have
now been completed and Manager
IF. G. Rogers and his corps of sales
men and salesladies have been busy
rearranging the entire stock The
changes We're commenced by takina
the stairway out of the center ..
the building and reconstructing it a
one side so that greater amount o
. floor space can now be utilized This
moving of the stairway gave room
for the installation OF another show
window, giving two large windows
for the display of goods The win
dows were made about fifteen in
ches deeper and this added space is
utilized to good advantage in ar
ranging a decorative display. A
number of features have been added
by these changes, one of special i'm
portanee being a roomy aisle that
now extends across the entire front
of the store. Large crowds on busy
days can now be handled to better
advantage, as heretofore the floor
| space for customers has been limit
| ed to small area Four or five
| rows of double shelving have been
constructed through the center of
the building and there is plenty OF
space between these for customers
and clerks to pass without the pos
sibility of congestion when the
store is crowded
This company has long standing
reputation for keeping right up to
now and an opportunity to add
some new innovation that will meet
the demands of an exacting public is
never neglected. That the manage
