NUMBER
MAGNIFICENT STORE.
The Letter Brothers Had Grand Rscep.
tiOn in Their New GOrgeOusly Equip
ped Store 10 Chambersburg.

In order to keep pace with the
constantly increasing business it
became necessary for the Letter
Brothers, whose enterprise is so
well known to the ladies of this
county, to provide more commo-
dious quarters in Chambersburg,
and on Wednesday evening of
last week. they threw open for
public inspection, the latest crea-
tion of their enterprise, the
beautiful and practical store for
women's wear at No. 54 South
Main street. And it was in.
spected! Promptly at s o'clock
the doors were thrown open and
to the strains of the Majestic
orchestra a great crowd surged
into the store room. AS an in
dication of the number of citizens
who called during the two hours
can be cited the fact that 1000
carnations and over 500 cigars
were handed out, the former to
women, the latter to men, and
all the visitors did not accept
these tokens of the owners re-
CARDS.
The front portion of the 175-
foot long store room is done in
mahogany, with furniture and
furnishings to match. Near the
center of the room is a dis
play case that serves as a divid-
er without intruding on the store
as a whole. Back of this room
is in French gray. Here are two
long rows of cases, with nickel
rails, containing a complete line
of ready-to-wear garments. Back
of this department are four fit
ting rooms all done in the attrac-
tive gray. Toilets and other
offices are in the rear, while on
the second floor, finished in nat
ural pine are the work rooms
and another department for
children's wear.
The floor is covered with a
soft Wilton carpet, from Sierer
Bros, and the walls and ceiling
are artistically finished. Light
is generously supplied from frost
ed globes, suspended by mission
fixtures. The store, as a whole,
appeals to the eye and the ar
rangement of the departments
and furniture makes for ease in
shopping.
