Levin Brothers, known as one of the very enterprising firms of East Minne­apolis, have just mpved into their large building, 31-43 Main street SE, for­merly occupied by the Century piano factory. The firm records one of t he most remarkable careers in the uphol­stering business. Commencing in 1895 in North Minneapolis wi th a small place, allowing them but 22x90 feet, their business has increased a t so great a ra te tha t 57,500 square feet is by no means too much room for t ransact ing business and making the many articles which buyers demand from them. In the firm are three brothers , Isadore H. Levin, Jacob Levin and Herrman Levin. S ta r t ing in business when the youngest was but 17 years of age, coming from New York, where they had acquired a thoro and practical knowledge of the upholstering t rade , working in the best factories and establishments, they learned all the ins and outs of the business. Their practcial education in the line of upholstering stands them in good stead, as there are over and again t imes where there is a shortage of help and where each member of tho firm can step in and ply the upholsterer 's needle or do anything needed.

For some time the firm has been con­sidering a move, as the business de­manded much more space than the old quarters on Fi f th street -and Central avenue afforded. The new business

Elaee meets all their requirements. I t as five floors, is supplied with elec­

t r ic i ty and has a splendid all-modern electrical plant for power. As soon as the firm is well sett led an addit ional force of men will be added to the num­ber already employed, which will br ing the staff up to about one hundred and fifty. *

In ar ranging the new factory, a por­tion of the main floor has been reserved for office space and has been hand­somely fitted up into four large rooms, one for the general reception room, two for the general office, and in addi­tion to these there are several p r iva te offices for the use of the firm. On the first and second floors are the show and sample rooms, and the th i rd , fourth and fifth floors are the working rooms. I n making furniture and upholstering it , the firm has found a ready market all over the country, and even in Canada there is a demand for thei r goods, so tha t one heavily loaded car crosses the line about every th i r ty days. Phil­adelphia, Chicago, Milwaukee and other large eastern cities are a market for the firm. San Francisco and the other Pacific coast cities also deal wi th the firm; in southern California there is a constant market , and even in Brit ish Columbia the dealers handle the goods of the Minneapolis firm.

I n i t s manufactur ing line the firm makes a specialty of parlor, office and l ibrary furniture, and all styles of up­holstering. Some of the choicest pieces of carved and upholstered furni ture in Minneapolis and which are often sup­posed to be importat ions from some for­eign market , have been made a t the Levin factory, by thei r skilful makers. Many of the exquisite handcarved frames are imported from Vienna, how­ever, as in tha t ci ty are found to be the best and most clever carvers in wood­work.

Le\»in brothers guaran tee their goods, tand the i r motto is, " I f goods are not approved of, money will be cheerfully r e funded . " A t present there is a great preference for leather coverings—olive-green is the s tandard color—and the market from which nearly all the leather is imported is Cincinnati. The other coverings used in the upholstering

W A T E R THANKSGIVING.

CONTINUING REVIVAL

Thanksgiving morning will be br ight and happy in the chapel of the s tate peni tent iary. A. H. Filer, manager of the Dewey theater , is planning a t reat for the prisoners, and in present ing i t will have the co-operation of Warden Wolfer. A special t roupe composed of members of the Innocent Maids com­pany from the Dewey and the " D r e a m ­land B e a u t i e s " from the Star thea ter in St. Paul , will give a vaudeville per­formance for t h e benefit of the pris­oners.

For years i t has been the custom to have a special enter ta inment in the prison chapel on holiday mornings. The prisoners are marched in under strict dicipline and during the performance must sit wi th folded arms and without speaking to one another. Applause is permissable tho, and there is always plenty of it—enough to please the most peevish and exact ing grand opera s tar .

Manager F i l e r ' s l i t t le pa r ty will put on about eight tu rns Thanksgiving morn­ing. A special car will leave Minne­apolis a t the close of the Dewey per­formance Thanksgiving eve, will gather the St. Pau l people on the way, and hurry on to Sti l lwater . The p a r t y then has the novel experience of spending a night in the prison under lock and key, and is served wi th a wonderful breakfas t prepared by the prison cooks and served by wai ters wear ing the pris­on garb. After vis i t ing the prison fac­tories the pa r ty will re turn to the twin cities in t ime for the matinees Thanks­giving afternoon.

ORDINANCE AMENDED

Inspir ing Meet ing a t F i r s t Bapt is t Church—Dr. Guild to Rest .

Tho the ra in of last evening reduced the usual a t tendance at the revival meeting in the Fi rs t Bapt is t church, i t failed to dampen the ardor of those present. Rev. W. B . Riley spoke on " T h e Meaning of Church Member­s h i p . " He likened the church to a sheepfold primarily for protection. In it the' flock is safe from the prowling beast and behind i ts walls secure from

the piti less storm. While the sole pur­pose of the church is not defense, i t surely meets this demand. There is s t rength in numbers and support m Christian association. Few men are strong enough to stand alone. No one lives unto himself. At the close of Dr. Ri ley 's sermon, eight people came for­ward to confess Christ and two were received into membership of the church as candidates for baptism. F ive others came before the deacons seeking mem­bership. This afternoon a t 8 p.m. Dr. Riley spoke to women only on " W o m ­a n ' s Rights in the H o m e . " At 7:45

'The p.m. ho will speak to men only on Seventh Commandment . ; '

A t Wesley church last evening the usual service was held, but i t was an­nounced to be the last revival service for some t ime. Dr. I*~ T. Guild, the pastor, explained to h i s people last n ight t ha t failing heal th will prevent him from continuing the meetings he had planned night ly up to Thanksgiv­ing. He was assured t h a t his congre­gation would cheerfully consent to any-tiling t h a t would restore him to his former vigor. Dr. Guild will take a two weeks ' vacation.
