There Is not necessarily either an
tsgonism or Its opposite between gem
tlemen ana scholars. ono may be
either without being both, and yet the
combination is IA DEsIDERATUM. A
man cannot feel himself every inch n
gentleman unless he be reasonably well
dressed. Neither can n boy bo inspired
with n desirable degree of seIf-respect
unless no too Is respectfully clad.
Dress is wonderful conservator of
conduct.
EVERY BOY
expects TO become a "gentleman and
scholar.O The latter designation he
expects 20 achieve by assiduous study
at school. The other part of his char
actcr we are
HUMBLE AGENTS
now going to school, and we are fur
nishing him his clothes.
SOON,
he NJ Ill want an outfit for the Fall, and
all these summer months we have been
quietly making preparations TO mako
him look like gentleman.
While we have been ahvertising
"cool garments for warm weather."
we have been making up these clothes,
knowing full well that sooner or later
they would be an Indispensable part OF
HIS OUTFIT.
Now we are ready to show you not only
the largest, but the best assortment
of boys clothes in tho
DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.
Yes, in the District of Columbia, whore
wo have indefeasible interests OF many
years growth. We not only have an
Interest In the boys, but In the young
men and middle aged men, whom we
furnished with small clothes nearly u
QUARTER OF A CENTURY
since, Ours Is no mushroom growth;
we did not spring up In nights but
we kept ON growing and growing, Just
as we hope all the boys will do,
from infancy to perfect manhood.
THE BOY
of to- day has many advantages that his
father never had TO make himself a
GENTLEMAN AND A SCHOLAR.
The world has been growing, books
have been mnltiplied, and he has the
aggregate literary experience Of pre-
yiOus generations to avail himself of L..
his progression toward
SCHOLARSHIP.
He does not have TO wait for the next
boy TO be done with the spelling book
before he can study his lesson, and he
does not have to wait for the master to
mend the pens and set the copy. 1t Is
the same way
WITH CLOTHES.
He doesn't have to walt until Dad
wears out his clothes, until his mother
has time TO cut and make them over,
nor until he IL nearly frozen with the
cold. No, none of these. He has now
only to wait until pay day, and then he
comes ut once TO us, and goes on his
way rejoicing. Long live the boys

AuANDsoME CONTRIBUTION
To the Railroad Employee Relief As
ISOLATION.

A short time since the men connected
with the Washington and Georgetown
Street Railway Company organized bene-
fetal society under the name Of the Wash.
iugton and Georgetown Railroad Employees
Relief Association. The object was to COM
bine and raise fund to help each other in
case Of sickness and accident. The organi-
zation was completed, and is now In a
healthy state. II received the Endorsement
Of the officials Of the road and most substan-
tial financial encouragement. The officers,
directors, and stockholders quietly sub
scribed to purse, that that there might be
money in the treasury for beginning, and
raised about 81 400, which the president, on
their behalf, presented TO the association.
II was great surprise, but none the less
acceptable on that account. At the meet
ing OF the board of managers OF the associa-
tion, held last Wednesday night, resolutions
were adopted thanking the officers, direct
ors, and stockholders Of the road for their
gift and the kind consideration shown by
tehm in the welfare Of the men in the COM

RETROSPECT
NfffffffR

One year ago to-day we
launc h ed our bark on the
troubled waters of competition.
The clouds looked threatening
and the sea looked angry, but we
were buoyed up by the cheering
words Of friends and by a per-
feet confidence in our own ability
to navigate safely through the
chopping sea of grasping greed
and to avoid the shoals and
quicksands of high prices. How
faithfully we have kept in the
midohannel of square and honest
dealing we leave it with those
who have honored us with their
patronage to say. But we have
long since passed the expert
mental period of our business
career and entered upon the
smooth and placid waters Of a
great success. Success in busi-
ness, however, is dangerous to
some people 1t is apt to make
them become careless and indif-
ferent, and to hug the delusion
that business Is bound to con-
tinue without any further effort
of theirs. Not so with us, how
ever. Day after day the wheels
of our energies have been lubri-
Gated by the commentators of
our patrons until to-day they
are brighter and more active
than ever. Our buyers have
ravished the American markets
of their choicest novelties in
Mems and Boys Clothing for the
coming fall and winter seasons
with which to surprise and please
our people. The advance styles
of these goods are daily coming
in. The secret Of our great suc-
cess in the past has been the
uniformly low prices we have
named for the splendid goods we
sell. We are too Jealous of that
success to jeopardize it for one
moment by departing from the
manner Of doing business that
has made that success possible.
In the future, as in the past, our
beacon light shall be, FINE
CLOTHING FOR MEN IND BOYS
