We are asked to say why this
store is, in many respects, the best
of its kind in the world. To answer
this inquiry modeStly is not easy.
Queer how people ask things, isn't
it? But to try
First-The store is a growth. 1t
is not a speculation or a jump.at-it,
or an imitation of anybody eISe's
store. 1t embodieS features not in
any other store.
Second-There are principles,
settled for every day in the year,
governing the entire business.
Right treatments exacted from the
employees to each other, and eS-
pecially from those who are over
them. Nothing is done to lower
the manhood or debaSe the prin-
cipleS of honorable bread-winning
workers. True performance of
duty, in spirita letter, is required
toward the humbleSt and highest
who do business with the house.
Third-Smartness, that indulges
in trickery or falsehood, is regarded
as seriously as stealing. No pre-
miumS here for overreaching of Gus
toners, or taking advantage of their
ignorance or inexperience.
Fourth-We invite the custom
erS' confidence and endeavor to
prove ourselves worthy of it by
showing that it is never misplaced.
We confess ourselves to be human,
and with all safeguards sometimes
make mistakes. So do our GUS
tomerS-at least they say so.
Fifth-The difference between a
new Cunard steamship and the old
American liners is not more marked
than this store in its management
and large portions of its goods. In
what particular do you say? Well,
it is so. Sir Joshua Reynolds could
not tell the difference in his paint
ingS and others. He said he did
not know. He simply painted a
Sir Joshua ReynoldS-and his pic
lures today are all there and are
priceless.
Sixth-lt is true that this store
usually shows at retail twice the
quantity of any other retail store
in many stocks four times the as
sortment. This is of great advant-
age to lockers as we'll as buyers.
To sit down at a meagre counter
and think thatthere is nothing else,
is loss to the buyer.
Seventh-We have a keen inter.
est in every piece of goods we
show. 1t is not out of the unSold
wholesale Stock-it is not heavily
charged by consignment, but our
goods are all owned by the firm,
who bought them for quick pay.
ment of cash.
Eighth-We have no awful mess.
es of left over things raked in from
sheriff sales and unfortunate bank
ruptS. Do our best, such odds and
ends accumulate fast enough with.
out going outand offering premiums
for them to make catch-penny ad-
vertiSing. The stocks here are
fresh, and by large sales are kept
moving. There are no stagnant
pools of merchandise for the un-
wary.
Ninth-No inducement suffices
here to sell unworthy goods. If
poor people are too poor to buy SUBJ
stantial goods they will find out
some day that the poor thing was
very dear, and we do not want
them to say that they got a bad
bargain at Wanamaker's. No mat.
ter how low our prices we keep up
the standard of reliability.
