store 10 Cairo that is, at the same
tine one OF The prettiest in South
ern Illinois and credit TO Cairo
More thes 1000 persons attended
the opening and all exS laimed at the
excellent arrangement of tho place
and the beauties Of its fittings
Jacob solomon, the proprietor, is
to be congratulated on his new
place. He has worked long and
hard in arranging 1t and getting
ready for the opening, after a long
seige in the old store, and is deserv
ing of the patronage of the citizens
of Cairo.
Mr.. Solomon yesterday kept open
house for everybody Men. women
and children were welcome and all
went away we'll pleased with the
hospitality or their host.
Store Beautifully Finished,
The new store is finished in dark
oak Not suit, NOR in fact a single
article, is exposed to the dust and
dirt that may be floating about ir
the air The clothing is placed in
glass cases, each suit being arranged
on a hanger that does away with
the old-fashioned wrinkling, folding
and laying on tables, Whenever a
customer wishes to look at the cloth
ing, an experienced man takes then
from the case and they are. in this
way, kept from being soiled and
wrinkled by inexperienced hands.
The showcases and shelves all are
covered with glass and make an at
tractiye appearance. A hardwood
floor, with attractive rugs, add to the
appearance of the new store. The
decorations of cut flowers and South
ern smilax. added much to the open
ing occasion.

cipient of many ongratulatory mes

Jenkins hand slipped along his

"Mr. Lfghtnut. SIR" he said huskily,
IF you're not going to need me very
much, could be excused for a while

BY Jove, yes, Jenkins. Go out and
