 highly successful. The possibilities of 

 the toy known as the "Erector" ap- 

 pealed to him, and he had a replica in 

 miniature of the Agemco type green-

 every detail, could be taken apart and 

 packed in small compass, and Mr. Mc-

 salesman to supplement his talk. Be-

Something in the nature of a depart-

 Henry M. Hirsch in his new store at 

 37 East Van Buren street. Adjoining 

 his sales and display room is a space 

 that he will have finished and furnished 

 as a rest and reading room for the ac-

 may read magazines or write letters 

 while waiting for friends. The fixtures 

 in Mr. Hirsch 's store are furnished 

 throughout by Buchbinder Bros.
