Coble. Several things are essential to the getting of business.

First of all you must create confidence in your customers. When they find goods to be as represented, they'll come again. "Mad and "Great Excitement" advertisements do not hold trade.

New fixtures of the most modern type have been installed throughout the store, such as plate glass counter display cases, and in the grocery department a ten feet refrigerator, a 20 feet display counter and 24 feet of new sheving have been added, 10 feet of which shelving is protected from dust by large doors sliding on ball-bearing rollers, fitted with bevelled edge plate glass. All new fixtures are made of the finest quarter-sawed oak, the product of the Elizabethville Planing Mill.

An elevator which distributes all freight between the cellar and second floor has been installed in the ware room. For the convenience of customers a gents' toilet has been installed on the first floor and a ladies toilet on the second fioor, and at a convenient corner on the first floor a rest corner has been provided in which is placed a porcelain-lined drinking fount supplying drinking water, cooled by flowing through coils of pipe upon which ice is placed in the cellar.
