THE BLUE SHOP RADIATES
REFINEMENT UNO TASTE
Radiatng an atmosphere of refined
and pleasing good taste the Blue
Shop, the latest addition to Seward's
up-to-the-minute business establish
ments, opened for business yesterday.
The establishment is appropriately
named m that turquois blue is tub
predominating tone effect in the
many pretty fixtures artistically ar
ranged to harmonize’with the general
atmosphere of refined perfection.
The walls and ceiling of the 20 x 80
display room are toned in deep
cream color, the stained floor taking
on a deper shade where exposed be
twen the 12 x 12 rugs. Arranged
along the walls are three dust-proof
cabinets of turquois blue, equipped
with 24 drawers each, providing dust
proof receptacles for the many pretty
. things so dear to the feminine heart.
Arranged on one side of the show
room are two large plate-glass show
cases for the display of pattern hats.
Set against the walls in the rear por
tion of the beautiful room are two
full-length French plate-glass mir
rows.
Artistic touches are given here and
there writh French hat boxes, daintily
dressed dolls and hat-stands. Along
the centre of the room are arranged
pretty blue display tables, the ab
sence of counters and the accustomed
shelf fixtures being striking and giv
ing tone to the general ensemble.
Among the other pretty decorations
is an Indian print tapestry repre
senting "The Tree of Life," with
zoological and orlnthological figures
scattered in the pretty pattern. The
antique idea is carried out in chairs,
while willow-wove settees and easy
chairs, all tinted turquois blue, com
plete the accessories for the comfort
of patrons.
Among the striking features of the
establishment are the black and gold
curtains for the large plate-glass
show windows, this color being carried
out with artistic touches here and
there throughout the room. Willow
flower stands and potted plants give
a refreshing hint of springtime.
The stock is recruited direct from
Marshal Field & Co., Chicago, and
the leading New York houses. Es
pecially is this true of the hats,
which are made to order according
to types.
The entire establishment is the
expression of the refined taste of
Mrs. Blue, who has combined per
sonality in each department with a
view to giving Seward something ex
ceptional in the form of a business
house.
The decorative work was done by
A. Ericsen and the fixtures were built
in the shop of Cal M. Brosius.
The first customer to patronize the
Blue Shop was Mrs. O. A. Johnsen,
who selected a beautiful hat.
