BUT A LIVE WIRE
Z. J. Loussac denies that he orig
inally came from Missouri, but it is
apparent he thoroughly believes in
! the Missourian’s motto of “Show
I me.’’ The matter of suggestion plays
a very important part in today’s
| commercialism, and the person who
invents the reflective glass case that
j shows nineteen articles and at the
same time reproduces her (God bless
her), can clip coupons the balance of
! his life. In a manner Mr. Loussac
i has solved the problem, and his new
drug store on the north side of
Fourth avenue, between D and E, is
arranged in an exceptionally tasty
; manner, resplendent with French
! place, oak trimmed show cases that
| suggestively set off his display of
j drugs, perfumes, candies, cigars, sta
' tionr rv, kodaks, cut glass, toilet ar
I tides, novels, periodicals, in fact
everything common to a modern
drug store.
The copper-trimmed front plate
glass windows, furnished by Ray C.
Larson, the glass man. are the first
of their kind in Anchorage and are
an evidence of modern ideas and
style. The rear shelving will be
trimmed in golden oak to match the j
show cases, and the panels of the
beaver board ceiling will also be
trimmed in a like manner.
In enteting the commercial life of
this city Mr. Loussac feels at home
from the fact that he has been in
Alaska for nine years and has many
friends among the old-timers of this
country.
