WORLD’S FAIR BUILDING.
Facsimile of the United States Struct
ure in a Gaffney Window.
In one of W. J. Wilkins & Co.’s show
windows is presented a most novel and
attractive display, a facsimile of the
United States building at the World’s
Fair at St. Louis, 1904. The material
used is Royal Cuticle Soap, and 15,000
cakes of soap are included in its con
struction. The view of this building
given by this artistic display is the
Iron’ elevation, showing the mammoth
arch of triumph with its ornamental
columns, and above all this is a repre
sentation of the Goddess of Liberty on
a chariot of progress.
The vast hall, flanked with smaller
halls, running through the entire cen
ter of (he building and reaching to the
dome which is crowned with an Amer
ican eagle with outstretched pinions,
is shown with wonderful eaxetness, as
are all the various intricacies of ar
chitecture and adornment which dis
tinguished this beautiful structure,
even to the waving flags and real
grassy lawns. The interior arrange
ment of reception and reading rooms,
office, bureaus, etc., are well preserved
in this display, and in a manner which
reflects great credit to W. J. Wilkins
& Co. In height it is fully ten feet,
and surrounded as it is by artistically
draped American flags, forms a most
beautiful display.
