Courtesy a Business Asset

Courtesy Is the life Of trade. To be
sure you must have the goods, but
courtesy helps to sell them. A certain
big establishment has a man whose
chief business Is to meet people and
make them feel at home. He has
pleasant post short distance from
the door and it's his business to see
every one that comes In. He has a
handshake and a smile for everybody.
When people come In that do not seem
to know where they want to go he
talks with them and learns their needs
and sees that they get In touch with
the proper clerks. The crowd buys
there because 1t Is made to feel that
the store Is interested in them. And
they pay less for the goods. too, be-
cause they buy In such large quanti-
ty that the store can afford to sell at
lever rates and still make money.
That's the reason it sells more furni-
ture, carpets and general furnishings
than all the other stores combined in
that town. Courtesy and service is the
watchword and they find there's money
In it.-Pennsylyania Grit.

WORTHY TO VEIL ROYALTY
Queen Of Siam the Possessor OF Prob
ably Most Magnificent Garment
In the World.

The queen of Siam owns n toilet
article which Is altogether calculated
to fill the hearts Of all other ladies
of the kingdom with ardent desire and
envy. For the queen is the happy
possessor Of veil capable of beau
tifying her face most wonderfully.
This veil is delicate tissue Of the

Part Of this three-meters-long veil
is intended to conceal the face. while
the remainder flows down over the fig
ure and closely nestles to the body.
The veil, which falls over the back,
is completely sown over with diamond
dust, while the part in front Is less
busted, so as not to impair the face
and the organs Of sense. The lowest
ends Of the veil are covered with bril-
liants.
The tissue of the veil Is SO prepared
as to cause changes In color when ex-
posed to the air. No sooner has the
wearer stepped into the street than
the veil assumes a delicate rosy hue,
which deepens and, as 1t were, be-
comes animate the longer 1t remains
in the open. When the queen returns
to her abode the hue passes away and
the veil turns pale and dead as be-
fore.
The veil has been credited with pos
sessing the most wonderful powers.
For century 1t has been in the pos
and although constantly used and ex-
posed to all kinds of influences of the
weather 1t has not lost anything Of
its texture and beauty.
