porters of foreign merchandise. Buy
ing offices are maintained in New York
which keep in constant touch with
trade conditions.
Cooperate in Buying.
The cooperation of these two large
stores in buying will be the means OF
giving the people of this community
vice unequal in a city the size of Dav-
export anywhere The stores will
stock separate lines of goods, which
will provide vastly greater range of
selection than has been possible here
tofore. The service in both stores will
be brought up to the very highest de-
gree of efficiency. c. J. Won Maur will
be in active charge of both stores.
There is probably no community the
size of Davenport in this country that
can boast Of two such splendid stores,
These institutions clearly typify the
progress of the city. They have been
/ important factors in the distribution
! of merchandise to the thousands of
families living in and around the tri-
cities for a radius of 80 miles.
! The Petersen store was founded in
1872 on the present site Of T. Richter
and Sons, later moving into the four
story building next to Hanssen's hard
ware store. In 1892 the business was
moved to its present location at Sec
ond and Main streets to occupy new
building that had been erected. 1t has
maintained a foremost position among
the leading stores Of the state and has
an enyiable reputation for good, relia-
BILE merchandise
% Years of Expansion.
Harmed and Won Maur began bust
ness at Second and Brady streets in
1887. A rapid growth compelled sew
eral additions to the floor space until
in 1898 they erected a fine new build
ing at the corner of Second and Harri-
son streets. In 1911 three more stories
were added to the building, making it
one of the largest and finest store
buildings in the state. This concern
has enjoyed 90 years of uninterrupted
expansion and development. 1t has
won the confidence of the buying pub
lie by deserving it. 1t has built its
business on the service it rendered
customers. 1t is a store where cour-
tesy and polite attention are consid-
cred as essential as having good mer-
chandise.

While you hear of some actresses
doing some wild and woody stunts,
the average star in legitimate dra-

anything that will seriously injure

will not ask you to do anything he
would not ask his own sister to do
If it is hazardous feat, some man
will double for you, and be paid a
big sum for doing it
