Early Life. Application,
Lead to Sicces.
It seems to us that to learn anything and learn it well, the
foundation of that learning must be laid early in life.
And. so it seems to us that it is imposeble in the tpajority of
cases for men to successfully eng e in business late life, when the
grey hairs begin to gleam.
Some have done so, but not thany¼ The sum and substance
of success in the clothing business lies In having received, an early train-
ing in values especially, in the value, or purchasing power of a dollar.
We have striven to make every dollar we earn; pUrchase
just a little better value than those of preceeding purchases
Our aim is to so meet the wnts of the clothing purch asing
public, that the desire to deal With us becomes second nature.
Of course we do ro.eet people to whom we have shown goods
to by the hour and hould not satisfy ; nor did we call these people
cranks, or hard to Please, or any other ! name. We simply made a
mental note of the case, and said to ourselies here is somebody that-yTi
must learn from: We have stndied the wants of many people like this,
and invariably so cOnipletely satisfied their wants, that to-daj they are
among the most st4adfast adherents of our shop full of values.
We have done and will do 'a great deal of • talkingi about our
sthre and its meri E. as an up-to-date well equipped clothing store.
And. it may be that there is nobody who thinks as muCh
about this talking as ourselves ; but we are persuaded that so long as
our talking is charaterized, as it has been in the past by the good na e
olleic.oramon sense, we may still continue to talk to a listening purchasi g

—Emerson, the actor, who shot and
killed manager Tuttle in a theatre in
London last spring, was tried at the London
assizes last week and was acquitted by the
jury, on the grounds that he had acted' in
self defense. Emerson who was leading
man in the theatrical company, refused to
play his part, while a play was being giving
in London, until the manager -paid him
some arrears of salary. This so enraged
Tuttle, the manager cif the threatrical
company, that he first struck Emerson on
the face with his fist and then picking up a
knife made a rush at him. Emerson fired
his revolver, saying he intended shooting
over Tuttle's head, but the ball struck and
killed him. Emerson is an American and
Tuttle belonged to Brantford. When the
jury returned their verdict the large crowd
in the court room cheered lustily and it was
some Wile before the authorities could sup-
press the disorder, thus showing that public
sympathy was strongly with the accused.
