We Like You Wagner

- Ut after sixty days in business here w are disappointed in the i'm
4 preston W. have made on a very few of the good people. One
friend says: That guys head is sweled;' another, He thinks he
= knows it all" Another, He don't know how to treat a custo-
mer.' Another, He's a smart Aeck from the city" And still
another, Hes RUDE with hayseed in his hair" We know they
arr all mistaken. We still wear a 6 78 hat. We are learning some
thing new every day. Started in a retail store as delivery boy.
aWOrked in all departments. Graduated from there to wholesale,
and then to brokerage; SO there is no part of the business We have
not studied. We must treat customers right, as in 10 years expert
enceln one town had hosts of friends who traded with us 10 years.
Lived only 2 years Of our life in city, and admit that was long
enough to stand the cod-blooded, non-friendly business relations.
Started life on a farm, but the man we worked for told us we hadn't
enough brains to make a farmer, and to try something else. We
found he was right Now w want to get better acquainted; want
you to know u.s.; we know We are right; if we weren not, we would
have been shot long ago. W. know we can treat you RIGHT.
Sell you goods RIGHT; and if your purchases are not RIGHT,
every time, tell us If you re not suited every time, tell us. We
want to settle all kicks a soon a we know about them. 1t is not
the amount of business we do that will make us a success in Wagner,
but the feeling Wagner people have toward Us. If it's RIGHT,
we'll be glad we came, glad to stay and make THE BUSY STORE
the best in Wagner.

SAVED FROM MOOSE By TEARS
Many Man Who Really Desei Sed to
Die Has Es.aped Because Of
Sympathy.

Tears. just ordinary everyday
tears. have saved many a man who
really deserved to die from the hang.
mans moose and the electric chair"
was one OF the favorite sayings OF the
iate Henry j. Mckinney, pioneer Judge
OF the common pleas court OF Cuyaho-

or two sympathetic men on the Jury.

ninety cases down there, and nv
collection Is that lost but two.
one case, particularly, was a pal
pabie instance OF guilt. The chances
were 100 to against the man I was
employed to defend. When we were
picking the Jury noticed a man in
the venire who. thought. would weep
easily.
THE state had exhausted its chal.
lenges and I picked this man. In nv
plea TO the jury ! made him cry. He
'hung' the jury and there was no YER
dict. The next time we went to trIa,
the vote was seven to five In favor of
acquittal. and the third time we got a
verdict OF not guilty all because one
man on jury could be made to
weep"
Judge Mckinney was, for many
years regarded as the most success
ful criminal lawyer in northern Ohio.
When the news OF his nomination to
the common pleas bench came to him
Judge Mckinney was on a tour OF the
