20x10x10, on the other. This ice-box 

 is of wood, cork lined, with air spaces. 

 It is finished in steel gray to match 

 the ribbon case. Both contrast well 

 with the light-colored walls. Close to 

 the ice-box, for convenience, are the 

 telephone booths, sheltering a small 

 packing table. The rear of the store 

 opens on two side streets that meet T- 

 shaped at the door, affording excellent 

 facilities for loading and unloading 

 stock. Above the rear entrance is a 

 balcony, reached by a flight of stairs. 

 Here is the manager's private office, 

 as well as the business office. While 

 out of the way, these offices command 

 a view of the store in front. The base- 

 ment shows the same careful arrange- 

 ment as the store above. A receiving 

 room under the front pavement is made 

 water-tight by an ingenious device, de- 

 spite the fact that it is below the sewer 

 level. The next room is cooled by 

 a well opening into the room to admit 

 cool air, a shaft opening from the room 

 at the top to discharge warm air; this 

 shaft ends at thy highest point of the 

 building. Then comes an ice-cooled 

 room intended for greens and flowers. 

 Both of these rooms have cork lining 

 and air spaces; both are fitted with 

 Stevenson doors; both are automati- 

 cally lighted by electricity. The fur- 

 nace, the quick heater and the coal 

 shute occupy the rear of the basement. 

 Between them and the rooms described 

 the remaining space is to be utilized 

 for packing in tim^ of rush. A large, 

 airy roqio forms the second floor. It 

 will be rented for the present, though
