John WanamgakeI' S,
PHILADELPHIA,
Thursday:

After all, there's nothing
so successful as success !" and
the speaker glanced over the
main floor of the Store and
continued: This was the
boldest venture of the kind |
ever knew, and if confident
predictions Of failure and
plenty of them could have
crushed it out, it would have
been buried deeper than that
big engine room down there
under your basement Yes,
people figured it out in plain
tgures that 1t was impossible
such extravagant outlays and
new tangled methods Of cut
ting off goods and taking
them back could ever sue
ceed,and nothing would have
convinced them otherwise
till the crack OF doom that
you could ever do this, but
this one thing doing itN
There are two ways of do
ing business-one is: Get
much and give little y that
sort may do for to-day. The
other is: Give all you hon
estly can afford for what you
receive :" that is good for all
this year and the years af
ter; not only give good
measure and good quality,
but lots of other things in the
way of confidence and con-
venience, comfort and accom-
modatlons OF various sorts.
"A new customer expressed
surprise that his friend, be-
ing no judge of quality, took
the salesman's word SO in-
plicitly. II e r explanation
was: But this is guaranteed
and that means something in
this house-that is why | deal
here"
In a word, we have under
taken to find out what our
patrons want, how they want
it, and cutting loose from old
traditions to adapt ourselves
to their wants.
