Betre;a0rrsebn

The value of respect, goodwill and real friend
ship is great in its influence upo1, the character of
the relations of a store with the public from year
to year. 1t would be dispiriting, discouraging and
dlsquieting 70 feel that we were drifting along
here making no permanent attachments among
those who come to buy, and that our trade was
only feeting and transient and equally as willing
to buy elsewhere. A store without stability in
the character of its customers is like a ship with
out a rudder-drifting, and in danger Of going to
pieces on the rocks.
No store can last, OF ought to last, which does
not recognize and accept the principle that per-
manent trade is a bulwark OF defense against the
dangers Of swinging along aimlessly with the
tide as it comes and goes. We believe that if
there is any way to ascertain the views Of the
public it will be found they are all in favor Of
trading at the store which they can trust.
