THE 3. Sc. D. CO., Dept. '77. Brunswick, Maine
figured out that women like to ho at ensv,
don't like to be rushed, like to take their
own tiino and comfort when buying
drosses; and ho moved Ii is dress goods
department to tho second floor. Since
then, no store lias placed that department
lower than the second floor. And further
more, that particular section is regarded as
tho aristocratic section, the piece tic re
nistutiee, or the tints ex muchina in the
business of selling goods to women ; and it
is treated accordingly. Its floors are cov
ered with soft and rich carpets Artistic
and costly chairs, such as perhaps tho ma
jority of purchasers never have tho priv
ilege of sitting in elsewhere, aro strewn
about in careless elegance. Clieval glasses
nnd dainty dressing tables, with silver
backed toilet sets, are on all sides. And
even the most phlegmatic nnd indifferent
of dressers can but feel that priniping-up
sense, that subtle infusion of desiro for
the better which is likely to make her go
home with a thirty-five dollar or forty
dollar gown, when sho came in with the
intention of being satisfied with the
"Mock of a Philadelphia manufacturer
bought at such prico that we are offering
it at ten dollars per garment."
A rulo of color blending and cumulat
ing, nnd of not mixing grades to the dis
advantage of both, prevails throughout
the store. It governs tho display of
cloths in the bolt. It governs the dis
play of ribbon's on tho counters. It even
penetrates to tho promiscuous displays in
the basements. For, thero is subtlety in
the treatment of colors, and wisdom in
the avoidanco of unpleasant juxtaposi
tions. And should tho buyer by any
chnnco escape scotfrco in the face of all
this mastery of selling-display, all this
appeal to the eye and the fancy and the
pride, tho enticing game has still another,
in fact still several other, angles to it.
And somo of those angles lift the depart
ment store considerably above tho mere
field of merchandising. Somo of them
enter into the field of public interest and
economics, and boiiic merely deal with tho
luxuries and pleasures of human enter
tainment. For example, a department
store in Indiana gives f reo lessons in dress
fitting to all customers desiring them.
Another merchant clsowhero lends sewing
machines and gives fabrics, threads,
trimmings, etc., to tho dressmaking classes
of Settlement ami Neighborhood Insti
tutes. Still another gives instructions in
making dresses, from cloth on salo in the
store, to conform to imported models.
Numerous department stores maintnin
such things as china kilns, to encourage
tho hand-painting of dishes and tho growth
of domestic art. Cooking schools in tnin
iaturo aro not uncommon. And object
lessons in sanitation nnd its various cur
rent developments aro universal.
MOT only does tho department store
work to stimulnto the immediate pur
chasing desiro on tho part of its patrons,
but it works also to keep alivo the good
feeling side. It aims to ninko store-going
as much of n pleasure, and fascination as
visiting a fair. To that end, it supplies
its patrons with nbnost everything on the
amusement end of life, from toy demon
strnting to orchestra music. In its cafe,
which also is spread with comfort, elo
ganco and moderation in prico in order
that patrons of the storo mny keep in
good humor, it has tho best of musicians
and tho best of musical progrnms. In
its windows it exhibits neroplnnes when
theso aro inventedand gives practical dem
onstration of tho uso of wireless teleg
raphy from its roof. Ono storo imported
a bit of radium at great expense when
that substanco was first discovered and
exhibited it where tho public could see it
freely. A Chicago department store has
developed a choral society among its
clerks. And thero is not a social or polit
ical event of any magnitude that is not
in somo manner or other reproduced in
somo store window or interior.
At nny cost, seems to say tho modern
merchant, keep tho peoplo interested.
Make them feel that they havo been to a
free exposition and that what they take
away with them is not only something
purchased for their own needs, but also
is something that indicates that they aro
living up to tho times, aro providing them
selves with tho latest conveniences and
improvements, and aro doing all that is in
their power to add to the joy anu satis
faction of living.
