This article appears in Volume V25, Page 968 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: STE-SUS
STORE (from O. Fr. estor or estoire, Late Lat. staurum or instaurum, stock, provisions, supply, from the late use of instaurare, to provide, properly to construct, renew, restore) , a stock or
supply
  of provisions, goods or other necessaries kept for future daily or recurrent use or for a specific purpose; thus the
term
  applies equally to the domestic
supply
  of provisions, &c., and to the accumulated stock of arms,
ammunition
 , clothing, food, &c., kept for the
general
  use of a navy or army. A common secondary meaning is that of the
place
  where a supply or stock is kept, a storehouse, and thus the
term
  is used particularly in the
country
  districts of
America
  for the
general
 
shop
  where goods of all kinds are sold by
retail
 . In
English
  the term " stores " has come into use for large general shops with many departments selling all kinds of goods.
