DOUGLAS STREET
TAKES ON NEW LIFE
Block From Fifteenth to Sixteenth
Being Remodeled to Keep Up
With Increased Bniineas.
ALL THE FIRMS PROSPEROUS
Douglas street, between Fifteenth
and Sixteenth streets, li Just spruc
ing Itself up this summer at an as
tonishing rate.
Like Augustus Caesar, who
boasted that he had found Rome a
city of brick and left It a city of mar
ble, so Douglas street seems deter
mined to improve itself from a block
of old-fashioned store fronts to a
block or arcade fronts of the latest
style and type. And It Is making
corresponding improvements inside
of many of the stores and business
places in the block.
The Guarantee Clothln company, lo
catd near tt Sixteenth street end of
the block, Is Just about completing- a most
extenniv Improvement that has converted
thla old established store Into one of the
most ur eft-date ctothlnc stores. An ar
cade front has been put tn, which gives
the store three large show window with
hundnome paneled wood background, the
beauty of the effect being stilt further
heightened by email leaded glasa win
dow at the back. The floor of the arcade
leading to the main entrance la of black
and white tile mosaic.
An ornamental metal celling and orna
mental metal aides have been placed
throughout the store. A new cash and
bundle carrier aystem leading from all
parts of the store to the office located
on a balcony in the rear la being In
sulted. "On August 2t we celebrate the twenty
eighth anniversary of the establishment
of the rtore," said Herbert B. Arnstelu,
the proprietor.
Installing ti Area.de
A. Hospo A Co., music and art store. Is
located just a few doors east at IMS
Douglas street. The entire front of this
doubls store Is torn out and a new arcade
front la being Installed, while business
goes on as usual Inside.
Thla new front of the latest type will
ot least double the show window space
of this well-known flun. It will provide
two entrances from the street, one on each
side of a large show window. Behind this
window the two entrance will converge
to the central main store entrance.
Mr. Hospe Intends to place In this cen
tral window an electric player piano of
a kind which automatically applies the
crescendo and the diminuendo and quick
ens or slow the music exactly aa the
composer Intended. Other Improvements
are being made Inside the atore.
