THE MAGAZINES

The Key to Lincoin's style.--Mrs Cen
eral Pickett, in contribution to Lippln-
colts Magazine for May, gives some in
innate personal recollections Of Abraham
Lincoln, among which is Lincoln's COM
rnent on something he had written which
had won praise from a reader. Lincoln
merely said: 1T was a truth which l
thought ought to be told. The man who
has something Of that kind to write usu-
ally says it as simply and directly as pos
sible. It is doubtful if that is enough to
account for the directness with Whlch
Lincoln always spoke. To speak always
to the point is a gift that cannot be won

UNION ICE COMPANY
VERY SUCCESSFUL
Sells Only a High Grade of Plate
Ice-Prompt Delivery
Feature.

The Union Ice Company has been IN
business for just q year. When SPey
began the friends OF the stockholders
said that there was not room enough
for another Ice company in WashiI :
ton. but they were not al all disc
certed by these pessimistic views. r.5
the results which they have achieved,
amply testify not merely 20 the fore
sight of the owners. but TO the business
acumeL md energy of the active man
ayers.
Since its inauguration the Union Ice
Company has given its patrons an eX-
ceIlent service. and AT the same time
a high grade OF ice. They have been
able TO accomplish these two resu'
first. because they have not spared --
penses TO make their delivery service
first class in every sense. and In the
second place. because they sell onlv
plate ice and not the half frozen frosty
can ice.
The offices of the Union Ice Company
ders phoncd to them are always given
prompt attention.
Under the act Of Incorporation. which
took place in May 1905, the following
officers are in charge of the company's
affairs: John u. Bartlett. manager. and
J. W Cody. secretary.
The company lays great stress upon a
very important feature of it's service
the plate ice instead of handling tn,
cheap grade of can ice.
Mr. Bartlett and Mr.. Cody have pushed
the affairs OF the company with signal
ability. They have done some judicious
and productive advertising during tire
past summer.

GRATIFYING SUCCESS
OF Mr.. il. MARSHALL
A Contractor Who Has Risen to a Posi-
tion Of Prominence in a
Few Years.

No profession IN Washington has ui-
dergone a greater change in the past
fifteen or twenty years than that OF the
contractor and builder. Formerly every
lack leg carpenter assumed the role
Of the builder OF contractor.
As a consequence. IL has taken some
time for people 10 realize that the
profession OF contracting and building
is rot only one which requires great
zeal Of experience, but a vast amount
OF study as we'll II requires a clear
head, fine executive ability. and an ac-
curate grasp of what an architect
means.
When all these facts are considered, it
IS not remarkable that there are only
comparative few individual names that
stand out very prominently in this line
Of work in the Capital City.
among these is Mr.. J. l. Marshall,
ran scarcely yet in his prime, yet who
as been III this line of work for fifteen
years and during that time he has con-
! Quoted some of the most extensive
building operations in the city.
Mr.. Marshall has very comfortable
quarters at III G street northwest.
where he has been located for the past
Ave years. Mr.. MarshaIls work in this
OF his ability as q contractor and as a
business manager. The Importance Of
his work indicates the general esteem in
which he is held by the moneyed inter
ests Of the city.
Several years ago he built the Ontario
Apartment House Today he is busiIy
engaged in constructing an annex for
this building When completed the
building win represent more than half
A million dollars Mr.. Marshall has
also built the Mendoza and the Regina
apartments. He Is also frequently en-
ploved on arbitration boards 10 deter
mine the value Of condemned build
rigs. His judgment IN such matters
has the greatest weight with men IN
authority.
Nr Marshalls rise in this line Of work
is only remarkable 10 those who are
not familiar with the fact that he gives
,easeless study anC care 10 every eou-
tract which he accepts. whether large
or small The most minute details or

H. |. STRASBURGER'S
FAMILY SHOE STORE
For Many Years Recognized as One of
the Most Reliable Establish
ments in the City.

The Family Shoe Store is an fnstitu-
ton with which practically every man.
woman, and child in Washington IS
more or less familiar The firm has a
long history and a fine business record
The house was tablished in 1863 in
Georgetown, by H. l.. Strasburger. the
father of the present proprietor AT that
time Mr.. StrasburgeT and his two sons,
Joseph and NJ. Strasburser. handled the
business of the firm. In 1874 Mr. StTas-
burger moved TO Washington. Upon
his death his two sons. Joseph and NJ i,
succeeded TO the business. 1t continued
in this style until July. 1902, when Joseph
Strasburger purchased the interest OF
his brother and became the sole owner
of the business.
Thus from this humble beginning
when three men were amply able 70
take care of the business the firm has
grown In size and Importance until to-
day Mr. Strasburger employs forty men
ana women in his large establishment
located at 3lO-3l2 Seventh street. His
store is one of the most attractive shoe
emporiums in the city.
Full lines OF imported and domestic
hosiery for men, women, and children
are carried
The shoes handled are manufactured
under the firms special name, one OF the
ucst popular sellers the Family Shoe
Store offers is the Edith. This shoe was
named for Mr. II. Strasburger's young
daughter, and it has proven a great
favorite as a ladies' shoe. The Betsy
Ross is the firms premier lady's shoe.
Its name was chosen by means of an
advertisement in which the firm asked
its patrons to submit names. This was
done and the judges. who were news
paper men. selected Betsy Ross The
young lady who submitted it received
a prize from the store.
The DR.. Janon. mems shoe is a
health shoe, being made with medi-
caied felt inner sole Persons who are
troubIed with cold. damp feet, md that
this health shoe is very successful IN
preventing discomfort and bad colds,
especially during the winter.
Mr.. Strasburger maintains a very eX-
celent repair department and n special
~ IS made OF sending out for work and
returning il when the job is completed
The firm : telephone is kept quite busy
by this department.
The Family Shoe Store is always Civ
ing some little premium 10 the children
who patrOniZe the place Ihe last week
in September, when the little people
were lust beginning JhriI work in the
public schools, a school companion was
given with each pair OF shoes. As win
ter approached toys OF various kinds
were given away.
Much o. Mr.. Strasburger's success he
attributes 70 the fact that for the past
twenty-five wears the firm has been a
liberal advertiser in the daily press OF
the city. Yes, you have TO let people
know what you have, II you expect them
10 come TO YOU says the proprietor
For il is quite evident that the mer-
chant can't take his goods TO each pos
sible customer. The logic Of these Re
marks seems to be perfectly clear
