Thrift and Industry.

That the key to real business success is
often based on n sound principle, rather
than money, is best illustrated by the re-
production of the following biographical

kee, Wisconsin, where he entered the en-
ploy of X. Suhm as a journeyman shoe
maker.

his fortune in the new world was soon
responsible for another change, and in 1852,

his own accord, making boots and shoes to

shoes was engaged in at Wholesale to the

In, 1890 the business was well established,

well determined. From that time on the

the present Mayer factories ut Milwaukee
and Seattle is 5000 pair per day, giving en-
ployment to an army of people, paying an
nually over six hundred thousand dollar in
wages, and employing sixty-five statesmen
who travel "a states in the interest of
Mayer shoes.
Frederick Mayer died on March 10, 1893,
after building up large and successful
business. He is succeeded by his sons,
George p. Mayer. Fred J Mayer and Adam

policy of the founder, have succeeded in
