WM-"! 1 1 #K«,i BRUNSWICK SHOP COMPLETED swelry graph Shop Ready for Business Workmen have been engaged for the past three weeks remodeling and decorating the interior of the Bwal stead Jewelry store and what was formerly the Halvorson shoe store adjoining, and now the handsome double store is ready for the inspec tion of the public. What was the shoe store has been transformed into one of the handsomest phonograph shops in the state, or for that mat ter probably in the west. The room is decorated exquisitely, the rear por tion being occupied by three hand somely enameled booths in which the salesman or prospective customer may "try out" an instrument under the most favorable conditions as respects acoustics and tonal qualities. The main floor is given over to display, one side being occupied by a large number of the handsomest designs constructed by the Brunswick-Balkc Co., one of the machines in particular being known as the Gotham, a period design of the very classiest type. Any of the machines are fit to embellish the home of any music lover or con nisseur of artistic instruments. Ar ranged about the room are several, handsome, upholstered settees and easy chairs where one may go and enjoy a rest in comfort or sit at one of the writing desks and indite a letter as pleasure calls. The whole making fine of the most comfortable and convenient rest rooms in the city. This room connects with the jewelry store by a large open arch-way. In the jewelry store, the decorators have changed the fixtures completely in so far as outward appearance goes, giv ing them a coat which changes their exteriors from a bright gold oak into a dark mahogany color. The side cases and show cases extend along the entire length of the room. The bal cony has been torn out and here on the main floor are the offices and vaults. The entire store will be ready for the public the last of the week and no one in Minot or vicinity should lose an opportunity to inspect one of the most handsomely appointed jewelry and phonograph shons in the west. The Brunswick Shop as Mr. Swal stead has designated his new and unique department is said to be the only one devoted exclusively to the sale Qf phonographs in the state. Sev eral additional clerks will be engaged and thus Swalstead's will gradually win a reputation for prompt and ef ficient service among its many pat- FIVE LAWS PROPOSED BY N. D.
