EACH HAD SUSPICION.
A Story of Two Partners, 10th OF
Whom Were Honorable Men.

"My first business venture on my own
account was in-well, never mind the
name Of the city," said New Orleans
merchant, chatting over old times with
some friends at the board of trade. "Ihe
location has nothing to do with the little
story am going to tell you, and, for rea-
sons you will understand in moment, l
don't care to be too specific.
II was young chap of 20 at the time,
and getting tired of working for other
people l opened a cotton brokerage Office
with another ex-clerk who was consider
aby my senior in years. We put up an
equal amount of capital and agreed to
share and share alike in the profits and
the hustling. From the very outset every
thing went remarkably we'll with us. We
both had lots of friends, who took pains
to throw business in our hands, and the
end Of the year showed a very nice little
balance Of profit. Next year, however,
the results weren't quite 80 good, and l
began to have faint apprehension that
l was getting bit the worst Of it, as the
saying goes. l heard vague rumor that
my partner was living at pretty fast
gait, and the more | thought about the
matter the more dissatisfied and suspl-
cious l became. You know how easily
such arrangements will grow upon Il
firm, and to make a long story short l
finally went to a detective agency that
made a speciality of private investiGa-
tons and arranged to get report as
they called It, on my associate. l ADMIT
that 1t was a rather sneakng proceeding,
and felt secretly ashamed Of myself for
resorting to it, but l argued that it was
my duty to know whether he was really
in the way of getting into any embar-
RAISING ENHANCEMENT.
"Well, in the course of n week or so
the agency made its report and without
going into details | may say that it COM
pletely exploded all the disturbing gossip
l had heard. realized after reading 1t
that | had been doing my partner great
injustice, and Of course | was conscience
stricken. To make amends l determined
to treat him with extra cordially, and at
the same time it seemed to me that his
own bearing, which had been a little dis
tant, became much more friendly. AT any
rate, whatever coldness had existed soon
passed away and the three years Of bust
ness association that followed were sin
gularly pleasant. Then he received a
tiattcring offer from Liverpool and went
there to live.

A Story of Gladstone @,

An anecdote Of Gladstone Is set down
by Sir Wemyss Reid in The Anglo-S Sax
on. Reid tells how on one occasion he sat
opposite Mr.. Gladstone at dinner and no.
ticed that the side OF his face was severe
ly bruised and cut. The explanation was
interesting. Mr.. Gladstone had been to
call a few evenings before upon Lord
Granville, who was then very i'll. In re-
turning he took a short cut through some
of the alleys Of Mayfair, and in passing
along one narrow street he slipped off the
pavement and, losing his balance, fell at
full length upon the road. Il lay there
stunned for u minute at least" he added
in his deep, sonorous voice, land though
q great many people passed no one came
to my assistance or took the slightest no.

The Grocer Did Not Laugh.

They were In the grocer's Said the
grocer, seeing blind man about to enter:
"Are you aware how delicate the touch
of blind person Is? When nature de-
prives us Of one sense, she makes amends
by bringing the other senses to extraordi-
nary acuteness. Let US illustrate by this
gentleman. I'll take scoop of sugar
and let him feel it, and you will see how
quickly he'll tell what it is"
The blind man having entered, he was
put to the test. He put his thumb and
finger into the scoop and without hesta-
ton said, "That is sand."-Tit-B Bits.

DAv|DsoM's CASH STORE
OUR TRADE WINNER

It is wonderful how things have changed during the past ten years. Only few years ago it was the excep- tion to find a man who made it his rule to pay cash for his purchases. Everything was charged and settled for about once a year. and sometimes never. This system was ruinous for the merchant. who was always deeply in debt and badly worried. It was disastrous for the customer because he had to pay more for everything and, besides, it developed the shiftlessness in him. Did you ever notice the fel- low that owes everybody. has every thing charged and never pays a bill the first time 1t Is presented? He doesn't get along half so well and isn't respected as much as the man who pays cash for what he buys. tdSH StortS are up tO udte anu tHc most prosperous people patronize them. That is why so many people are buy ing their hardware, steel ranges, tin ware. guns, cutlery and other useful things at Davidson's Cash Store. The business growth of this concern Is as- tonishing. It is true they have adver- tised considerably, but the main req son why the people are trading at Davldson's more and more is that there Is a saving that averages from 15 to 20 per cent, and that they have a great variety of useful articles, be- sides making your money back if you are not suited" the rule.
