understand that, as his store is commo-

in at any time and leave any parcels they
may have and that he will see that the
parcels are sent to the railway station or
steamboat wharf in time to catch any
specified train or boat. The store is CEN
trally situated, just off Pennsylvania ave-

One of Washington's wellknown stores
that has been showing substantial growth
with the passing of each year is that of
Hecht & Company, 513-51oS517 7th street.
Having been inaugurated In a compare
lively small way about eleven years ago,
it has already twice outgrown it's quar-
tiers, making necessary the complete re-
modelling and charging of their business
building a few years ago. Upward of a
half hundred departments make up a
modern and up-to-date department store
in every sense, stocks being kept new and
fresh at all times.
One OF the departments recently added
to the Hecht establishment is that of
pianos, and the firm reports that it is
proving immensely successful. Several in
novations in selling have distinguished
this department, such as sending pianos
ON free trial, requiring no cash payment
when selling them, and, it is stated. man,
Ing smaller prices than those quoted by
the exclusive piano stores.
Two floors of the large building are
given over to furniture and floor cover
ings, these departments being among the
largest in Washington.
Hecht & Company are best known for
the liberal credit system that has proven
SO acceptable to many thousands OF

From the Business Mans Magazine.
We suppose the late discussion in
American and British accounting jour-
nails as to the superiority of the Amer
lean over British accountants Cthe lat
ter being proud of the conservatism
which really means behind the times')
has left kind of rambunctious feeling
behind which finds expression in spite
full remarks every now and then.
One British contemporary in discuss
ing the first business exhibition acid in
Great Britain as making new era
among those whose business it is to
provide labor-saving appliances for the
use of business and professional men,
continues in this extraordinary fashion:
1T was, of course. purely traders
undertaking, for up to the present, at all
events, public opinion does not favor a
form of advertising common in the states,
where boarding may be seen at the rail-
way stations advising the ,passerby to

touch the spot In this country public
as well as professional opinion values a
professional man for his reticence rather
than for his volubility: and there can be
little doubt that upon the whole it is
right, for few advertisements, and very
few American advertisements indeed tell
the truth and nothing but the truth con-
corning the wares that are offered for
disposal"
We never had the pleasure of behold
ing an advertisement of the kind quoted
and are very much under the impression
that such advertisements exist only in
the imagination Of the gifted writer OF
the article quoted. He probably is equally
well informed as to the statement thai
very few American advertisements in
