First Floor—Lansburgh & Brother . When Our Grandmothers Went Christmas Shopping There have been always books on etiquette. 'Way back in 1853 there was published a book called “The Behavior Book,” which contained, among other rules of de- portment, the following suggestions to shoppers: “Always object to a par- cel being put up in news- paner, as the printing ihk will rub off and soil the article inciosed. If it is a little thing that you are going to take home in your band, it will smear your gloves. All shop- keepers in good business can afford to buy proper ‘wrapping paper, and they generally do so. It is very cheap.” And then this one: “Gentlemen consider it a very irksome task to go on shopping expeditions, and their ill-concealéd impatience becomes equally irksome to you.” While “shopping” may still be irksome to men, tiere have been great improvements in the conveniences and facili- ties for shoppers. This Store welcomes every new idea which will improve its service. Don’t you like to nibble Fresh Candies?
