CONFIDENCE

is the foundation stone of our store. The dictionary defines confidence as firm trust or belief, self-reliance firmness, boldness. security and full rSliance. And that's just what our bSsiness is founded upon. Without the full confidence nowadays the peo- pie will almost be afraid to purchase for fear of being cheated. But in our atore we have always made confi- dence our motto and have the pleas ure of enjoying the results from day to day and year to year for over 20 YSars right here in our native town. Everybody knows us and we know everybody, and what we sell IS war ranted to be good or your money back. We have never returned the money three times in twenty years; that speaks good for the quality, doesn't it? The little child receives inst as prompt and careful attention as older persons. Now, if you do not relish the tea or coffee you are drink ing, just purchase once at our store and pay us the same price you pay the other fellow, then you'll see the difference.

 The announcement that the tickets for the performance of "The Mes siah" by the Waterbury Oratorio so- ciety in the new Music hall in the Buckingham building, on Friday ev- ening, December 14, will be sold at a flat rate of $1 each, and is expected to prove extremely pleasing to the large number of music lovers in Wa terbury. The committee feels justi- fled in fixing this low rate in the ex- pectation that the hall will be filled. The character of the soloists is of such high grade that some members of the committee thought a flat dollar rate would lessen the dignity of the splendid concert which will be given. An unwillingness on the part of two of the singers to sing with the maxi mum admission fee. a dollar. also threatened to interfere with this ar engagement, but finally everything has been smoothed over and the tickets now in the hands of the chorus mem- bers and at Driggs & Smith Co.'S and are enjoying a very encouraging sale. The full chorus of 15O voices, under the direction of Conductor Percy. will sing, and the soloists, as already announced, will be Mrs Caro- line Mihr- Hardy, soprano Franz 1T.
