New York City, was the finds of a little by-play—but he can best tell the story himself. “I must confess that I have been the victim of an innocent deception, which turned out all for the beat, however. T had been resting under the be- lef for some years that coffee served as a lubricant to my cerebral convo- lutions; In other words, ‘made the wheels go round,’ and I had an idea that I could not work without it as ‘@ stimulant. ‘I soon paid the penalty in ner- vousness, loss of flesh, insomnia and restlessness, none of which troubles | would yleld to any or all medicines. | 1 finally got in rather a bad way and my wife took a hand in the affair all unknown to me.

My work was performed far better than in my old condition, “Commenting upon my greatly im- proved health one morning 1 was told the truth. “Tis to iauga,’ so I submitted gracefully and joined the Postum ranks. “Experience teaches that boiling is one-half the game.

And we might add: not only to know what ought to be done, but to do it well ---better than some cone else's best. Millions of people annually visit the Siegel-Cooper Store. Think you that this store does not incessantly exert itself to more closely knit the bonds that tie it to its friens’ Let a trip through The Big Store serve as proof. It wiil be more than a mere stroll from one floor to another. It will prove an education, a charm to the eye, a stimulus to the mind, tor Practically every country of the globe is represented here in the matter of merchandise. In a sense, the store is as much yours as ours. The postal, cable and telegraph stations, waiting rocms, parcel rooms and other conven- jientes are public accommodations, and yet all part of the store that is ‘+a city in itself.’ Since the present management assumed control the store has broad ened and bettered in a multitude of ways. Previous limitations were swept aside. A much more liberal policy has been adopted. Every method and advanced idea that will make you like the store more and patronize it upon every possible occasion is vigorously in force. But here we are in the Basement. It's but astep down from the Main Aisle, if you prefer that descent. The China and Glassware sec- tions are ctacular in their sparkling attractions. Cut Glassware re- fracts the rays of the electric lights with dazzling beauty. The March sales are in progress; there are many Customers, Interest is keen edged. Eastward, and beyond the confines of the Bric a-Brac, China and Glassware, the Housefurnishings hold sway. Activity is the slogan. Special sales go on briskly. Everything to help make home work easier. More than 20,000 articles. Think of that! Back again to the Main Floor, but this time by way of the stairway that brings you up opposite the famous $15,000 golden Fountain. The water plashrs musically, and through it dance gleefully the rainbow-like hues of the electric lights that fringe the great basin You note the Main Aisle closely because of its summery fascinations. A great sale of artificial flowers is being held. Flowers for every use that millinery needs can possibly suggest. The scene is typical of the marina when ‘Spring unlocks the flowers to paint the laughing soil.’ Throngs of eagerly purchasing women. Femininity gathers about the various booths with the same insistence that bees gather about honey petalled flowers in June. A riot of hues ; flowers of every description. Summer, forsooth! The Jewelry Store is as delightful asever. The Ribbon Sections are radiant with spring-time fancies. The Neckwear, Lace, Parasol, Dress Goods, Silks, Wash Fabrics, Gloves, Leather Goods, Household Linens and other sections bordering the Main Aisle are richly stocked with everything newest and best. Good humor is as pervasive as fine perfume. Throngs of shoppers enter, stop, chatter, buy and press on te be suc- ceeded by other throngs. Over on the 19th street side the Untrimmed Millinery is engaging much attention. It’s the largest place of its kind in the world and therefore does an extraordinary amount of business. ‘Human nature is fond of novelty,’’ quoth a philoso- pher, and the store of to-day that is in the forefront rank to stay caters keenly to this exaction with appreciable enthu- siasm. Novelty is everywhere throughout the store. Com- monplace sameness is avoided. 6 The new Easter things from Germany spell novelty in capitals. Clever things, indeed. Bunnies, of course; plenty of them. Who would think of celebrating Easter without thinking of Mr. and Mrs. Rabbit and their frolicsome youngsters? About every animal and bird that Noah had in the Ark is represented by this Easter collection. And all in the Candy Store, of course. We walk through the Drug and Toilet Article Sectiors, and then pass into the Men's Neckwear and Furnishings Departments. The brightness and newness of the stocks tell more graphically than words of the passing of winter. You are thirsty? The world's largest Fountain is but a few paces away. Refreshed with whatever your tancy may have dictated, you Pp ito the Shoe Store. It's a busy day; the les are peopled thickly; the seats are crowded. Looks as if everybody needed new Shoes. Beyond lies the Men's and Boys' Clothing Store. Eastery, of course. If it's new, stylish and correctly made ‘t's here. The Women's Ribbed Underwear and Hosiery Sections are just off toward 18th street, and nudge the Notions. On the Escalator! What an odd®sensation to be taken upward on a stairway that glides mechanically. A century ago ‘twould have seemed like witchcraft. Here we are inthe heart of the Book Store. Up almost before we knew it. Walls of books of every kind by every author. Off to the right is the Stationery and Office Supplies Department. Further over are the Manicure Parlors. The Sporting Goo‘ls Store likewise enchains your at- tention. All kinds of supplies for all kinds of sports. The Camera Department is immensely popular. Amateurs come here by thousands yearly. Turn your head. Baby Carriages, Go-Carts, Trunks, Dolls, and kinds of Toys and Games greet your gaze. Fast ward, the Herse Goods Store bids you TL Over on the 19th street side the Music f Store attracts crowds. ments displaying Silk and Sateen Under- skirts; also Women's Housewear of every description. Busy here as elsewhere. Northward of the Grand Stairway i: the Corset Store. Always popular and excellently stocked. A tavorite place. The Muslin Underwear and Children's Sections are in the centre and just a bit off tothe northwest. Everything for mother and youngsters. Beyond, and in the direction of ISth Street, is the Waist Store. The wond ind admiration of thousands of discriminating women. )0 Waists are on sale at one time, We sell more ly other store in the world. We show more styles jlabrics, more exclusiveness. MMyriads of Waists of the most winsome description. The sections devoted to the sale and display of Women's Costimes, Tailored Suits, Cloaks and Skirts are ,ustly popular and famcus. Quality, tone, dignity and individuality are the cardinal characteristics of these sections. The extensiveness of the displays, the richness and variety of styles and reasonableness of the prices makes this an eminently satistac- tory branch of The Big store. The Girls’ and Misses’ Departments are in the same category. The Millinery Parlors are in the very flower and br Miance of Sprirg- time attractivenes: Paris has ed her magic wand over the entire ensemble. American originality adcs a bright lustre. Here in bewilder- ing abundance are sonnets of lace, flowers, ‘ewels, striw and whatever enters into exquisite millinery compositions, Ther ir of aristo- cratic refinement about these parlors that bespesks the drawing-rooms of the most exclusive. A flower garden of radiant styles for Spring and Summer. You enter one of the Sixth Avenue Elevat and ascend to the Third Floor. Here Carpets, Rugs, all sorts of coverings, Lace Curtains, Portieres, Uphcisteries, Wall Papers, Pictures and Furniture spread out before your aimiring gaze. The Furniture Store alone covers more than 60,000 square feet. Furniture from the foremost American artificers. Richest and rarest of Styles, as well as a broad variety of the most popular kinds. Azain upward. And now we are in the far-fame! World's Greatest Grocery. A marvelous place, verily. Interest never flags. Busine: flows in from everywhere. Competition merely stimulates it---increases the volume of busine: Busy, busy all the time. Mail orders come in by the thousand, To visit this fine Grocery is like attending an inter- national pure-food exposition. Nothing in retail commercial history parallels the growth of this Gro. It holds a position unique and unapproachable. cery. inn nn iceAlinicenuas ohieon?h Avenue, Gighteenth and Yinetcenth Svrects, You 3 Men's Shoes. EXCEPTIONAL VALUES.
