A BUSINESS BUILT ON A GREAT
 PRINCIPLE.

On November l4, 1865, G. W. Fair child opened store in the newly fin-
 ished Citizens building, where Court
 rights Shoe Store is now located.
 Then, as business grew rapidly, re-
 moved to Cor. Main and John streets,
 then to 9Sl Main street, running
 through to John street, finally three
 years ago to the store corner P. 0.
 Arcade, the business increasing every year necessitating this year of taking
 the rear room and the Arcade Annex.
 The firm of G. W. Fairchild and Sons,
 Inc, have now ore of the best arranged
 and most convenient stures Tn Connec-
 ticut, to carry on their large retail and manufacturing jewelry, and optical business, equipped with every thing
 needed to give best results. This has only been obtained from the principle that every effect must have a cause. This principle is Fairchild & Sons. Buy and Sell right. The articles dealt in by this house, luxuries possibly, are sold as merchandise of the very best quality, but sold on the basis of neces- sities, large sales at small profits. This business principle so different from most has been most successful. Fair child & Sons buy direct from the man. ufacturer's, eliminating all middle mems profits, and sell the richest pro- ducts for one-fourth less than their competitors. The public have respond ed splendidly, so splendidly that the financial furry has not cast its shadow on this house. Their answer to the challenge of so called "hard times" is their newly arranged store and handsome stock of goods. A separate department for the Optical business has been opened in the Arcade Annex where with every new scientific instru- ment, the free examination of eyes is made, the truthful explanation wheth- CT glasses are needed or not, the fur nishlng of the finest quality at prices less than you expect to pay and the broad Fairchild guarantee, makes it a safe optical store. The manufacturing department in separate room under the personal supervision of the firm with only the highest skilled artisans employed, make it the place to have repairs, remaking, etc., made of your Watches, Clocks, Jewelry and silver ware. Special prices will prevail in every department for the Opening, March 26, 27, 2S, and the public should attend for it will be one of the treats of the season. Don't forget to visit on these days, G.

THE CLEVELAND NATIONAL
 FOREST.

By proclamation of the President the name of the San Jacinto National Forest has been changed to the Cleve- land National Forest. As Mir. Roose- welt says in his letter to Mrs. Cleve- land, in which he announces the sign ing of the proclamation, the new name is given in recognition of President Cleveand's great services in promot-
 ing the policy of preserving forests.
 It was he who, by proclamation in 1897, set apart the forest reserve which will hereafter bear his name.
 '.President Cleveland" writes Presi- dent Roosevelt, twas one of the first to recognize the need of forest preser- vation and the creation of the San Jacinto and other forest reserves. with total area of 25, 6S6, 320 acres, was one of the results of his foresight in this direction. Throughout his life he tock great interest in consei wing the natural resources of the Nation, and l particularly regretted his inability to attend the meeting of the Governors in May, because that meeting was in part the fruit of seed he had sown years before. The name of Grover Cleveland will always be prom Il ntl.- identified with the movement to pro- tect the forests of the United States. and it seemed 10 me emiuently fitting that one of the forests which he cre- ated should bear his name through out all time.
