Facts and FanCiGS

A great many people firmly be-
ieve that a good location is an
absolute requisite to success in
business; and have a super
stitious dread of starting where
others have failed, either through
misfortune or incompetence
These fancies are the veriest nom
sense. From our standpoint the
only benefit to be derived from q
good location is that it may be
within easy reach of the gem
eral public. Business wherever
started If properly conducted is
bound to succeed. Such q busi-
ness MAKES the location; the
location alone never yet made
the business. When we were
about to open at the northwest
corner of 9TH and D streets a
number of otherwise sensible
men advised us not to touch the
place-it was an unluclSy corner,
&C., &C., &c. The advice was
kindly meant, and received in the
spirit in which 1t was offered, but
we quieted their fears on our ao-
count by informing them we
knew the causes of the failure of
those who had gone before us.
THE PLACE HAD NOTHING TO
DO WITH 1T. We filed the first
and second floors of the building
with the best selected stock of
Clothing for Men and Boys ever
exhibited in the District of o.
lumbia. We marked our Goods
as low as it was possible to sell
them and live, and the result is
we are to-day doing the largest
business that was over done at
the northwest corner of 9TH and
d SITS. We have had to replenish
our stock again and again, and
to-day we opened fifteen cases of
Mems and Boys Clothing to re-
place what we have sold within
the last ten days alone. Luck is
the towards shield; energy and
attention to the wants of patrons
are the beacon lights for which
every business man who would
be successful must steer.
