SOME of the Per. plexities of an Elm. ployer.

GIOy0t
 This week something came up in our business affairs that set us thinking little harder than usual. In the years that have gone by, the Waterbury Furniture Con- pany has done so much to please their big army of customers that every once in a while we come across one that expects hOthing less than perfection in the help we employ.
 1t is a we'll known fact that any man who works for the Waterbury Furniture Company any length of time is sought af- ter by otier mercantile houses, and it is a very simple matter for him to secure en- ployment if he feels like making change.
 Brains and character are necessary qual- itications in this establishment, and this we expect in everyone we hire. But pen- pie find fault with our help occasionally because it rains, or when thunder, light ming or electricity fil the air. They expect us to comn'snd the elements. But we have never y9t been able to hiie men who will not make mistakes. And sometimes they make mistakes that are very grievious ones. The indignation of a beautiful bride of 50 summers, when her goods have not been delivered on time is sight which would inspire Tennyson to greater effort And yet we pay by far the largest wages in the city. But we can't hire the help
  Father Mulcahy, A. S. Chase, F. J. KingsbuEy, k. c. Lewis, H. L. Wade, George W. Beach, C. F. Chapin-all good men in their way BUT WE CAN'T HIRE THEM TO DO OUR WORK.
 Suppose we should give the entire con- trol of our Undertaking Business to Chauncey NJ. Depew. He would ruin it completely, because he would keep the people laughing all the time and that would keep the people healthy. So it is easy to see that it requires special men to do our work. Do our readers know that the Glenwood Ranges have the largest sale of any Ranges in the United States. That is why we keep them. There will be no dull times in this concern this season. be- cause we have been lucky enough to have the goods that sell themselves, and we are selling them at panicky prices just to keep our full force of men at work. Good men cannot be got every day, and when we need them we need them badly
 Remember we are the largest House Furnishers in Connecticut, as well as the most reliable.
