Our new store, erected expressly for us by Mr. Pettis, is the largest and finest for retail purposes in the State of Indiana, and for solidity of construction, beauty of design and elegant equipment, is second to none in America. The short time in which the energetic contractors, Messrs. Jungclaus & Schumacher, have taken to erect such a large and magnificent structure, has excited the wonder and admiration not only of our own citizens, but of contractors in New York and Chicago. , . ' The upper floors will be reached by two handsome Crane elevators, provided with every known appliance for insuring the safety of the passengers. Our electric plant consists of 80 arc lights and 200 incandescent lights, when in full blaze calculated to make the store brighter than day itself. The counters and other fixtures are magnificent and complete, no expense having been spared to provide everything that could contribute to the convenience or comfort of our customers and sales people. There are numerous waiting and toilet-rooms for the accommodation of customers and others, and for our employes on the various floors. In addition to lunch-rooms for our employes, we intend to open a Restaurant on the fourth floor for the convenience of customers. This feature, although new in Indianapolis, is not new in Chicago, New York, Boston and other large cities throughout the country, where it has been long in successful operation. To convey some idea of the space to be occupied by us in our new quarters, we may state that there is 85,000 square feet of floor space on the six floors, and that the combined lenth of counter-fixtures and tables is over one mile. We estimate that to"" thoroughly equip this vast reach of selling space will take a force of at least 250 sales people. We shall continue to conduct our business in the new building with the same regard to equity, integrity, and uprightness which gained the confidence of the public in the old store, and placed it as a financial success so far ahead of all its competitors. Visitors to the city, our customers and their friends, cordially invited to call and see our new store. gMusic will be furnished in the afternoon and evening.
