A GRAND OPENING.
Elgar Space Occupies l6,000 Square Feet.
Statistics prove that more people are
attracted by curiosity than from any
other cause. A GUARDIAN representa-
tive. having a minute or two on his
hands, dropped into Prowse Bros., and
endeavored to see a member of the firm.
Naturally he made his way to the oiioe
in the re.ir,but arriving there he was told
that Messrs. Prowse Bros. are se‘dom
found in their oilice,as their time is almost
entirely occupied in attending to their
large patronage. However, after visit-
ing several of the departments, he
found that he had passed one of the firm
who was behind the counter attending a
delighted customer. Mr. Prowse was
pleased to meet him, and when asked
if he could afford the time to show him
through thoestablishment he most cour-
teously complied. And before your re-i
preseiitative will have concluded his
narrative he will have some flattering ,
tliiiigsto say about that iirm. “With so
much that is worthy and good,” said
Hr. Prowse, “we are at a loss to know
which to emphasize. Every department f
possesses some particular merit that .
will be ot interest to you and will also 0
interest those who practise economy in
the fullest meaning of that word, It
any emphasis is needed and you will
come with me on a ramble tbrouvh

“Yes we will go there now.” After
reontering the old store we wended our
way to the rear and ascended the stair
case to the large clothing department
which_contains thousands of dollars
worth of ready made clothing. Pro-
ceeding along through this well stocked
department we again went through an
arch and come to the Fit Reform
clothing zoom which is over
the staple and fancy goods
department. “This” said Mr. Prowse
"is the best fitted up clothing room in
Canada.” It is fitted with 25 oak
