Things did not break right. He built a store for the rich. f man's trade. The most beautiful store on the Pacific Coast. The fixtures and front cost almost $35,000. But the rich, man's trade did not come often enough on account of the stor? being on Third street NOT FASHIONABLE ENOUGH A WORKMAN'S LOCATION. And to draw its support from the medium classes was not enough to keep this store going and while, in the meantime, this store did not get any of the poorer class business because the store was too attractive, the outside and the inside, for a poor man to go into to bujr his suit or overcoat thinking that the prices were too high in a fashionable store. AND THIS IS THE MAIN REASON FOR THE FAILURE OF THIS STORE. And for many other reasons: Today This Stor& Is Forced to Close Its Doors Forever The Great Retir Just think of it, right in the heart of the season, you can buy for yourself or for your friends useful Christmas gifts such as Men's and Young Men's Suits and Overcoats.
