Apparel and the Man.

Among the most valuable assets
the worker in almost any field can
have are the razor, the shoe brush
and the tooth powder. These are
possessions within the reach of any,
one. To have them is a powerful
help toward success. To neglect
them is one of the surest means of
meeting failure.
There is no man, no matter how
careless he may be of his own per-
sonal appearance, that would not
rather talk business to a man who
is clearly shaver, whose shoes are
shined, whose teeth are white and
whose linen is in good condition,
than to a man who is careless about
his appearance. Employers know
how the careful salesman usually
sells the most goods. They know,
too, that Shakespeare was right
when he said that "the apparel doth
oft proclaim the man." They reason
that unless a man has respect for
himself he does not much mind
whether others have respect for him
The Virginia enterprise. [volume] (Virginia, St. Louis County, Minn.) 1893-19??, 1906-10-19

or not. And a man who cannot in
spire respect in those with whom
he does business is not half 80 val
liable as the man who can.
First impressions are often the
strongest Impressions. A we'll.
groomed man wins his way where
a shabbily clad man is refused a
hearing. Most big business con.
Germs insist either directly or indi.
rectly or by printed rule upon at.
tention to the little details that 20
to make up mans general appear
ance.
Cleanliness is not only next tc
Goodness, but it is also next to sue
cess. Any man who has been in
business for any length of time can
point out fellow workers who would
have succeeded had they paid more
attention to their appearance. They
don't have to be "dudes" to make
good, but even at that "dudes" have
made good where tramps have fail
ed. If it is necessary to make a
choice, better be "dude" than a
tramp. The latter may get more
shiftless satisfaction out of himself
but the former gives more satisfac
ton to others, and it is largely the
others who make or break a man in
business.

Will Not Tolerate Women in Saloons

The village council of Biwa blk
has taken steps to prevent women
frequenting saloons in that village
and with that object in view unani-
mously passed the following ordin-
ance:
ut shall be unlawful for any per.
son licensed to sell intoxicating Ii
quors in the village of Biwabik to
| suffer or allow in or about any place
in said village owned, operated or
controlled by said license for the
selling of Intoxicating liquors, any
| female person to remain longer
than fifteen minutes at any one
time or to drink any Intoxicating
liquor or to give any exhibition of
singing, dancing or playing, or
acrobatic performances, or to fur.
nish any amusement of any kind or
to act as bartender or barmaid."
Other places on the Mesaba range
have created similar laws in the
past, but one acquainted with the
manner of enforcement would new
er suspect it.

ACCORDED A ROUSlNG RECEPTION.
Candidate Cole and Republican Speak
,ers Address Crowded Houses.

Hon. Albert L. Cole, Republican
nominee for governor, accompanied
by Senator Moses E. Clapp, Con-
gresham J. Adam Bede and host
of prominent politicians from the
head of the lakes have been making
a triumphal tour of the ranges this
week and from every point comes
reports of crowded houses and over
flow meetings.
The party arrived in Virginia at
els Wednesday evening, holding a
big meeting at the Fay Opera later,
and while we may not all be Repub-
licans in Virginia the enthusiasm
displayed would indicate a goodly
percentage of that faith among the
several hundred voters in atteid-
ance.
0. Harold Griggs presided, the
first speaker introduced being Sen
ator Clapp, who concisely defined the
relation of state and national poll
tics and the necessity to national
protection of placing MinnesotaTin
her rightful column, politically:"He
extolled the merits of the Republi-
| can state nominees. especially the
honesty and earnestness of Candi-
date Coles campaign in behalf of
state development, charaCterizing
him as man of action rather than
words.
Senator Clapp was followed by
Capt. J. r. Randall and George J.
Mallory of Duluth, who kept the at
tention of the audience while await
ing the arrival of Mr.. Cole, who adj
dressed an Eveleth audience early
in the evening. Mr.. Coles appear
ance in the hall was greeted with
cheers, and while not an orator he
gave his hearers a plain, straight
forward talk that won for him many
friends.
He explained his position on state
drainage, good roads and state de-
velopment, subjects that appeal
with telling force to residents of
northern Minnesota; and while Mr..
Cole has no hobbies he has ideas in
conformance with established rules
for the retaining of millions .of
acres of state lands and the settle
ment of same. He also told of his
work and achievements in this d.
rection while member of the leg
islature.
From here the party went to Spar
ia and Hibbing, where meetings
were held last evening, and today
tour the Vermilion. The trip will
close at Duluth tomorrow, where
several meetings will be held in
different parts of the city. j.:

the personal invitation from every per-
