FOR rhose studying economy.

ON another page will be found the
advertisement of Brill Brothers, tue
popular and enterprising New YORK
clothiers. A perusal of this announce,
ment is sure to be of interest to all
those who like to have good reliable
clothing without paying exorDitant
prices for it. The reputation OF TINS
firm has been built up on strict non
estv in its advertising, and as they
appear to hold their customers right
along. we must take this as an evil
dence that they always keep their faith
with the public. In these days when
money is somewhat scarce and when
every dollar counts, it is OF the deep
est interest to economical people to
know where they can buy the right
kind OF goods at the most reasonable
nrice and the Messrs Brill have
rightly coniectured that there are
many such people in the thriving sub
urbs as we'll as in the metropolis
proper. To reach these classes they
advertise in suburban newspapers
and naturally their patronage IN this
respect is worthy of the patronage OF
suburbanites in return. For the
holiday season it is particularly de
sirabie to know where appropriate
presents for father, husband, son or
lover may be obtained for COM
paratively small outlay, and we com
mend a careful pernsaf OF Brill Broth
ers ad. to those wishing to make such
gifts Please notice that Brill Bros.
have four stores in different parts Of
the city.

Happy New Year.

Mr.. Frank Bergen, of Elizabeth,
one of the leading members OIL tne
Bar of the State, has prepared q
naper on the law of Master and Ser
want as it is to-day in New jersey,
which shows that the present laws
on the subject has become mass OF
legal subtleties more fruitful Of con
troversv and litigation tEan capable
Of doing justice either to employer or
employee. Mr. Bergen recommends
remedial legislation and says that
the great variety of legal qulDpies
which now too often constitute sue
cassful defences should no longer be
nermitted to have that effect. II IS
90 seldom that a lawyer makes sueh
frank admissions as these that the
novelty and good common sense OF
his arguments should appeal to the
sensible-minded employee. The EN-
nloyee in the State OF New Jersey
hos shown an utter disregard OF his
interest in legislation and although
he has had q powerful lever in the
ballo+- box in his hands to correct the
evils noted by Mr.. Bergen, yet owing
70 lack of organized and concentrated
effort has failed to make the best Of
his opportunities in. this respect.
Mr. Bergen also notes the reading Oh
.raa cauapanV policies
which makes the prosecution Of
claims Tor injuries costly, vexatious
and uncertain and thinks it would
be prudent for the law to define the
form Of insurance policy MI Ber
cen prepared his interesting paper

and Industries and It IS IN the'r
