The union label stands for good

credit of this enterprising firm that
the patronage of organized labor is
theirs, as well as of all progressive

experience that commands the respect
of all who have done and are doing
business with them.
Good merchandising is as true of
the well dressed man as the farmer.
In this case the Glasgow Tailors have
won honors with thei rsuits and

satisfaction. The label on the gar

apparel oft proclaims the man."
said Poor Richard in his philosophy.
We have been told always that clothes
don't make the man. True enough.
but it is also true that clothes nine
times out of ten tell what the man is,
1t is the privilege of every man, no
matter whether his purse be lean or
plethoric to dress we'll and neatly:
this he can do within his emans
these days.
Stern Bros, located at 20 Main
street, is the home of good clothes.
There SHOULD be an emphasis put on
these words "high grade" for they
characterize briefly just the sort of
clothes, ETC., that Stern Bros. stocks
embrace.
The gentlemen who own this store
are strong in the purpose never to al
low a poor garment in their store.
This does not mean that the goods
are high priced or out of the reach
of the man with moderate means,
but that if one spends much or little
he is always assured of high quality.
These gentlemen value the friend
ship and patronage of the wage-eam-
ers especially. They are their firm
friends and well wishers, and it is
pleasure for The Twin City Review
to give prominent mention to such
worthy concerns as the above named
firm, who are worthy of every work
ing mans support.

WHITE LINE LAUNDRY
Try the White Line Way. 1t Pleases.

In this review of Business, which
touches on all sides of industry, we
want to pay a complimentary tribute
to the White Line Laundry. The
Laundry has been instrumental in
making Champaign and Uubana spot
less towns. In nocstruction, santa
ton and modern machinery this
Laundry compares with that of any
other laundry in this part of the state.
The premises occupied by the plant,
are large and we'll lighted, are equip
ped with steam and electric power
and all necessary laundry machinery
for doing a high grade of work, and
an efficient corps of experienced and
careful assistants are employed. All
kinds of work is done by the White
Line Laundry, especially shirts, col
lars, vests and these are done up"
in manner that cannot fail to please
and at prices within the reach of all.
The proprietors of this laundry
give their personal supervision to the
business. They are practical men
themselves, allowing none but high
grade work to leave their laundry,
and have built up a liberal patronage,
which is steadily increasing.
This laundry makes a speciality of
delicate fabrics and this department
of their business is proving a popular
one and steadily increasing in volume.
In the review of concerns that are
friendly to our cause there is no con-
Germ in the city which has shown
more liberal views than the White
Line Laundry.

Under the direction of progressive,
latter day business men, who eff
GENTLY serve not only the city but all
surrounding territory - departments
Offering choice selections at reason
able prices and service that is dis
tinctly metropolitan-the w. Lewis &
Co. Store is one of the best equipped
and most completely stocked institu-
tons of its kind in this part of the
country, with trade extending into
all sections of the rich and produc-
tive farming territory surrounding
the Twin Cities. In every particular,
the institution ranks among and is
one of the greatest commercial en-
terprises that have added so much to
our commercial supremacy and made
the city desirable place in which to
live by giving the people the truly
metropolitan department store. Their
stock of goods embraces all the fea-
lures of such a store, and the policy
of the firm has always been to "han-
die the best and sell it for less"
The stock of goods carried by the
store is neatly and conveniently ar
ranged in every department, each of
which is complete store by itself.
Competent and courteous salespeople
wait upon the trade, and every article
is sold with the understanding that
it is exactly as represented, or money
will be refunded. New lines are con-
stantly being added to the stock, and
the management, sales force and
other employees do everything possible
to merit the continuation of the pat
ronge of the public. Their efforts in
this respect have met with the ap-
probation of the residents, and have
resulted in steadily increasing trade
for the store.
w. Lewis & Co. are regarded as one
of the most substantial institutions in
this section, and its owners do all
that is possible to aid in meeting all
legitimate requirements of the grow
ing trade. The big establishment is
credit to the prosperous and grow
ing city of Champaign, and we are
glad to remember it among its sub
stantial acquisitions.
The management of the firm has
always taken prominent part in the
furthering of the best interests of the
city, much good having resulted from
their efforts along these lines.

A Nation Wide Institution, Operating

In reviewing Champaign's leading
institutions we wish to call the atten-

name heads this article, located at
2O8 N. Neil street.
The ]. C. Penney Company operate
312 stores, scattered throughout 70
states. with annual sales of over fifty
million dollars.
This big mercantile institution has
distributing plants in New YORK
CITY. st. Louis and st. Paul, and prac-
tically all of their merchandise Is
bought direct from manufacturers
and distributed through their distrib-
uting points, which permits an enor-
nous saving.
Since they opened their doors to
the public of Champaign and vicinity
they have grown to be a popular
place i'm this community, through
their guarantee of good service, quail
ity and satisfaction, and their new
and different twentieth century meth
DDS of merchandising, backing this as
surance with the standing offer OF
money back IL the purchase Is not
satisfactory. This, together with the
stores homelike feeling, is building a
service in retailing for Champaign
BUYERS that makes all that Is to be
desired.

ton only of the best that is obtain

other kindred lines, all of which are

and the inherent desire to serve. Such

is materially benefited because their

standard quality merchandise at the
lowest price. :,
This stores activities are directed
by a manager who has long been iden-
tilted with the retail interests of the
country, and is assisted by an eff
cient corps of dependable salespeopie.
The untiring efforts of the organiza-
ton is to give our home people a
store of universal satisfaction.
The Twin City Review, through its
Christmas number, recommends with
pleasure to its readers the house OF
j. C. Penney Company as worthy OF
their patronage.
This store has one outstanding fea-
ture which they adhere to rigidly, and
that is that there is no delivery of
goods purchased and their patrons get
the benefit in price usually from such
a system, and one cash price to every
one.

To those who have given music
proper thought and study, we need
not offer suggestions or advice as to
what part good instruments play in
successful music study. Music is one
of the exquisite things of life; no
home is complete without it. The
best of instruments are none too good
when purchasing. One likes to do
their trading at thoroughly reliable
and dependable places of business,
and we feel no hesitancy in offering
to the prospective buyer of a piano,
player piano or Edison or Columbia
monographs, the name of ID. H.
