Trust companies guard a treasure con.
servatively estimated at S35 35,00000000
of which grand total at least $4,000,
100000 represents wealth which the
companies protect as trustees and guar

value of their own banking resources
Thus the trust companies hold in their

more than one-thrd of the total wealth

Times Are Changing

About thirty-five years ago this
month one of the most widely known
clothing statesmen of this city emf.
grated from the little town of Tralee,
County Kerry, Ireland, for the land of
greater opportunities. In showing an
Irish Frieze overcoat to one of his
friends the other day he told this story
relative to the manufacture Of Frieze
goods that is now SO popular for over
coats in this country.
Many's the time I've sat in the lit
tie matched cabin before the peat fire
watching the weavers with their hand
looms weave Frieze cloth; the wool
being grown on the sheep in the imme-
date vicinity of my home. Little did
think at that time that thirty-five
later would be selling the same class
Of goods manufactured in this little
town in the City of Minneapolis.
The Frieze cloth for overcoats has
grown wonderfully popular, being in
troduced in this country by American
tourists, who buy the cloth and have
the goods made into overcoats by
American artisans. But in the last
few years decided change has taken
place in the selling of Irish Frieze
cloth. The firm where am now EN-.
ployed imports thousands of yards of
this cloth every year, that is made
into different styles of overcoats in
this country. In fact, today, we can
and are selling overcoats made Of
genuine Frieze goods cheaper, better
tailored, better made, for less money
than they are in the City of Dublin.
The Irish Frieze is most wonderful
cloth. presume there is not a fabric
today manufactured that will give the
service, hold it's shape, and hold it's
color, that has the same degree Of
warmth as the genuine Irish Frieze,
but then you have to be careful, many
of the so-called FREEZES sold today
for genuine Frieze, are made in
the looms of Eastern cities. It is very
easy to detect the difference between
the imitation and the genuine. The
genuine Frieze is soft, silky and very
close and compactly woven, and comes
practically in two colors, light and
dark gray, with either long or short
KNAPP.
1t is a long distance from Tralee to
Minneapolis, and considerable time
has interviewed since this man saw
this goods being made by hand looms
in Ireland. The subject of this little
sketch is Mr.. VIM. Archer, who can
be found in the overcoat department
of the Standard Clothing House, Nicol-
let at Sixth, where he will be delighted
to explain the superior advantages
and wearing qualities of genuine
Frieze cloth to the many readers of
this paper who are interested.
