Frederick Mayer Boot and Shoe Conn
pany Monument to German
Thrift and industry.

That the key to real business success is
often based on Il sound principle, rather
than money, is pest Illustrated by the re-
production of the following biographical
sketch of Frederick Mayer, founder of the
f. Mayer Boot & Shoe Company, repro
duced from an issue of the German
American National Alliance:
Frederick Mayer; founder of the fac
tories at Milwaukee and Seattle now bear
ing his name, came to this country from
Niernstein, Hessen Darmstadt, in May,
1851, and immediatel. proceeded to Mllwau-
kee, Wisconsin, where he entered the en-
ploy of r. Suhm as journeyman shoe
maker
The spirit that prompted him to seek
his fortune IN the new world was soon
responsible for another change, and in 1852,
year LATER he embarked in business on
his own accord, making boots and shoes to
order as only German apprenticed arti-
san knows how. Subsequently a stock of
goods was carried and a retail business con-
Quoted until 1880, when the manufacture of
shoes was engaged in at wholesale to the
trade.
In 1890 the business was well established.
the foundation firmly laid and the policy
well determined. From that time ON the
growth was more rapid. The capacity of
the present Mayer factories at Milwaukee
and Seattle is 5000 pair per day giving en-
ployment to an army of people, paying an
nually over six hundred thousand dollars in
wages, and employing sixty-five statesmen
who travel "a states in the interest of
Mayer shoes.
Frederick Mayer died on March Is, 1898,
after building up a large and successful
business. He is succeeded by his sons,
George 2. Mayer Fred J. Mayer and Adam
j. Mayer, who, by rigidly maintaining the
policy of the founder, have succeeded in
bringing the business up to its present
magnitude, where it stands as a monument
of German thrift and industry

USE COLORS IN COMBINATION
Blue and Lavender Are Perhaps the
Most Popular Among the Fore
most Designers.

Designers have combined in their de-
sire for blue and lavender, Used to-
gether in a gown or wrap. The
evening frocks are usually in these
two colors whenever woman can
wear them. One fabric in lavender IS
draped into another fabric of blue, or
two shades of blue and two of laven-
der are so deftly laid over each 9TH
er that the effect is like a soap bubble.
Blue and lavender bugles and beads
are used for embroidering lace and
net, crepe de chine and liberty silk.
A chiffon of one color is dropped I'M
de- net of the other color, and tulle,
embroidered with the bugles, is draped
over both.
The wonderful liberty crepe and
silks which are so fashionable for
gowns are used in a confused mass,
so that it takes the keenest observer to
know where one tone ends and an
other begins.

A Softeninq Lotion.

A nice lotion for softening water for
bathing purposes is formed of eight
tablespoonfuls of alcohol, one table
spoonful of ammonia and a dram of
lavender. The preparation can be bot
tied and used whenever the water
seems too hard.
Do not get into the habit of using
such softeners every time you battle
the face. If the water is hopelessly
hard try to use rainwater instead. In
cold weather melted snow-provided
it is not gathered from dirty city
streets-is an excellent substitute for
hard water.
Vary the lavender lotion by the use
of almond meal, oatmeal or some
other softening preparation.
