The tribute recently paid to Queen Vic toria by Ambassador Bryce deserves quotation and preservation. Among other things he said "The publication of her letters has thrown a great light on her character Seldom is it that girl of 17 without experience shows the judgment that she displayed almost at once-it Is record unexcelled in the biography of any other sovereign. She had good judgment, solid common sense, and a willingness to take advice unusual in one suddenly ele vated to great position. Her tact was ex- qulsite and no one could say that she ever made a promise she did not intend to perform"

skilled workman, and the department
allotted to that branch of the business
in the dependable iewelry store has been
greatly improved. The increase in this
line of work has necessitated the en-
ployment of a larger number of jewell
ers, and hence the acquisition of Mr.
Heidinger. Mr.. Heidinger is young
man, and we trust that his stay will be
permanent and his associations pleasant
and profitable.
The coming of the new spring lines
at Bransford & Andrews will be of such
value and interest as to attract numbers
of visitors to the store. As stated, the
department of repair work has increased
in wonderful measure, and the sales
department is also showing a tendency
to expand in the same manner. 1t is
safe to say that the new season will
bring very large modicum of success
full business to this store. The treat
ment of their custom and the skill and
industry applied is sufficient to guaran-
tee the return of large volume of
trade.
