With the advent of this
business came new methods
-new principles. Their ap-
plication made a peaceful
revolution. Tailoring was
emancipated from the cumu-
lative profits of many middle
men. and the savings all be-
gan to flow into the pockets
of consumers. The savings
to the men made by this store
aggregate tens of thousands
of dollars. This great fact
cannot be questioned. The
basis of the entire success of
this store is the money-sav-
ing service to men.
The service is greater this
year-IS9o-than ever. As
appreciation of it deepens and
widens, its power will still
further increase.

warehoused the furniture. and went to
live with his bachelor friend. whose
naturally buoyant spirits and cheering
sympathy helped somewhat to enliven
his dark days Of despair.
Blair was ''in Somerset house,"
phrase which described his occupation
as definitely as was ever found neces.
sary, and his salary was comfortably
beyond the point at which the govern
ment performs little sum in substrac-
tion--inconle minus income-tax-be-
fore handing Its servants their checks.
He possessed some talent lack Of
ambition. and cultivated gift Of tax
ing things easy. But when he saw the
pale face and the anxious expression
Of his friend he forgot his natural dis
inclination to take trouble. and he
spared no effort In his endeavors to help
Egerton discover the whereabouts OF
his wife. His theory was that as It was
certain she was not staying with
friends, she must be earning her own
living, and he believed she was doing
this by journalism.
"What is more likely, now, Egcrton?"
he asked. Thrown ON her own re-
sources. she would naturally turn to an
occupation of which she knew some
thing. With her gifts and the knowl-
edge Of the inner working Of the news
paper world which she must have
picked up from you, she would have no
great difficulty in finding employment"
This was only theory, however. and
difficult to put to any practical test.
One afternoon as Egerton sat at his
desk busy with the proofs OF an article
he had written for the Strand Gazette,
the door was suddenly flung open and

TOM EDisoN's FIRST CHECK

Didn't Know It Had to BE Endorsed,
and Moaey Vas Refused Him.
1t Is not everyone that understands
the ordinary system Of banking and
the proper thing to do with q bank
check. Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe
was sorely puzzled over the huge check
her publishers paid her for her royal
ties in "Uncle Toms Cabin" and her
husband could not tell her how to get
money ON 1t. So. also, was 1t with Tom
Edison when he got his first check.
When he completed his model Of the
now famous ticker" he submitted 1t to
the president of telegraph company,
who asked him to leave 1t for examlna-
ton. Edison was out OF money and
his landlady had warned him for the
last time. He had decided to ask $5.-
900 for his invention, but when the
president at the next interview asked
his price his courage oozed away, and
he faltered out that he would like the
company to make an offer.
"How would $4,000 suit your" said
the president.
"Whatp exclaimed the young wiz
ard, "all in money!
Certainly; you can have 1t now"
"All right"
A check was drawn and handed over
to Edison with these words: "That Ia
check for $4,000. Go to the bank
around the corner and they will give
you the money"
At the bank he got into the long line
and worked up to the paying teller'f
window. Then he pushed the check
over the sill. The teller saw that Il
was not indorsed and pushed 1t bach
with fitting remarks, which Edison dit
not understand, he being even ther
slightly deaf. He retired crestfaller
and the thought dawned upon him thai
he had been swindled. He had anoth

utterly detected. but Blair did his hest
to cheer him and help him to keep up
his courage.
There's no need to be so down In
the mouth" he argued. "At any rate,
you know that your wife Is living, and
| you may hear from her az any mo-
ment."
They discussed the matter from all
points OF view, and Blair made numer.
Gus suggestions, All at once a bril-
| liant idea struck him. and Egerton
seized on Il at once. He suggested that
Egerton should write tale for the
Free Lance. telling the same story that
his wife had done, but from the mans
point Of view. They spent the rest OF
the evening In talking over the story
and making notes. Egerton devoted
the whole OF the next day to It, and In
the evening, after Blair had given his
approval, he posted 1t TO the Free
Lance.
Egerton had hidden his own story
under the veil OF fiction. but he was
sure that IL his wife read 1t she would
realize the truth. AS he felt he wrote,
and all he asked was that she should
read what he had written.
The days OF waiting which followed
were maddening In the way they
dragged their slow length along. and
Egerton felt that hsNwould give any
thing to know the fate Of his story,
Publishing day arrived at last. He
was overjoyed to find that he had been
successful, but It was not for the sake
of seeing himself in print, for that Is a
JOY which soon pals. Now he hoped
that his wife would at last learn the
truth.
He was too excited 10 work and he
felt almost afraid to so home by him
self. He called on Blair and they
went home together. Blair made q
hearty dinner, but Egerton was in toe
nervous state to eat mouthful. and
kept rushing to the window at every
footstep. The suspense began to tel
ON him. and he grew almost hysterical

SALMON INDUSTRY,


Complaints from fisherman all along
the river have been abundant this sea-
son. They declare that there are aot
enough salmon running to amuse them.
much less pay them for spreading their
nets. They have continued TO 20 out.
however. early and late, In the hope
that the run would soon get better,
and there are indications the past few
days that their hopes are TO be real
lied.
s'The salmon run has improved wen.
deifully this week. said z. ]. Mo.
Gowan, the veteran packer, In an inter-
view In tho Portland Telegram. For
time 1t seemed as II both the fisher.
men and the canners were 10 be left
out this season. but think we will all
get in yet.
I'VE think the light run OF fish this
season has been on account Of the cold
weather. There is well-foundel
theory that when the weather and the
water are cold. the iish stay In deep
water, and think this 10 true. The
catch up the river has been better this
year than II has below. Down there
the water is 10 deep IN many places and
the current so storng, that IL 10 impos'
sible toi fishermen to spread their nets,
and the fish have not been going oul
into the shallow water where the men
can fish.
1.-THE warm days have had n tendency
to thaw the fish out. and from now on
expect plenty Of fish.
Prices Are Good.
"The fisherman 10 getting good
| price eor all he catches. In fact, a lit
tie more than the fish are worth. The
packers are paying cents, and the
cold storage people from 6i< TO 6ls,
or cou,se the cold storage men want
the pick OF the catch, and for that rea
son must pay more. Some OF then
made us an offer OF 6ts cents for 30
Founders up to 40, and 0tS cents fol
those over 40 pounds We prefer
however, to give as good as can b
caught to our customers. Prices fol
the canned fish are fair, and there is I
big demand for our goods. Eastern
dealers are all anxious to make con
tracts and some OF the packers have
now contracted more than they can dc
liver. II the run continues good, VI
will be able TO supply the demand
made upon us. II It continues light
this demand will entirely exceed tn
supply. and rs the supply on the mar
ket has been cleaned up, there woul'
indeed be q lively rush for ish.
Territory Grows.
For long time the packers Of tn
Columbia had poor market for thei
product. but with the coming OF th,
ans.continental roads came create
demand for our fish. Now the deman'
is IRON all over the United States. an
the territory is growing all the time
The big jobbers Of the Middle Wes
find II cheaper and better to buyathei
fish ont here than to 90 to the Allan
tic coast for them, and We are all find
ing good market at Chicago. 81. Loui
and such centers.
1--WE have no complaint TO max
aside from the scarcity Of ish, and
think that will soon be over with. aut
that there will be an average pac
this season."
