THCIMAS & SON L'ctidRc ot iieener redjt beigcroeUt Out It Must B i All Around Merit, Not tho Halfway 8ort. Not long ago we took occasion to re mark that merit wan always r«wam ed. A grocer friend has taken issue with us not on bis own account, how­ ever, for be has both merit and suc­ cess. but beenuse be has failed to trace the connection between the two. His argument consiated of axample. aud be pointed out un Instance which he believed practically upheld his conten­ tion. He knew of a fellow merchant. This man is competent, honest and reliable. He has met with hard fortune at sev- eral tarns of the road of life, and he has been forced Into a sad and irre­ trievable failure. He handled goods that were good, nnd he worked hard and with some Intelligence, but price cutters and catalogue bouses descend­ ed upon him, and what they left for him wasn't sufficient to support blui. ao he dropped out of the race. The merchant referred to had merit as a man no doubt, but he wus not a good merchant. After some persistent questioning -we learned the secret He had some of the elements, hut not enougli of them. He was a good buy­ er, but a poor seller, aud hia place was as an employee and not an employer. He was honest, but he was not far- ■Ighted, and both are Decessary to suc­ cess. He was reliable, but he was not courageous, and courage must back up the man who wins in the hard battle of independent merchandising. He carried good goods, with quality he hind them, but be did not advertise them. There It la. He did not possess the qualities of merit as a merchant or success would have been his reward. He bad some, but not all. of the con­ stituents. He knew something, but not enough; be did something, but not all. Merit in a store la no halfway article. It goes the whole length of the course. It may seem harsh aud unfeeling to assert that be did not deserve to suc­ ceed, but we believe that be did not. for merit is always followed by suc­ cess and reward. The trouble with our critic ia that be does not comprehend what merit means. Merit in merchan­ dising includes all that good merchan­ dising Is.— West Coast Trade. z the seed “SS'ur..'“: Er*4«“ : * 1x1 "*‘£"m ',“t ™ of David according to the Ärmere fdjeniert — vftr roifet worum!

FOR A S P O T LE S S TOW N. Woman W ill Dust St. Louis Strsst Cars Bsfors Riding. As a protest against the cobwebbed and dusty conditions on a street car line In St. Louis, the women's aux­ iliary of the North Side Commercial association of that place took the pledge recently to volunteer as car cleaners. Each of tbe sixty members will carry a whisk broom and dust cloth and before sitting down in the car will brush the seat with the broom and clean the window with her dust cloth. The wife of a prominent manufac­ turer leads the movement and borrow­ ed a whisk broom and du ting cloth when going home from a recent meet­ ing. She dusted the seat and cleaned the window, to the amazement of the spectators and the discomfiture of the conductor. Numerous petitions have flooded the offices of the United railways demand­ ing improvements on their lines, but without avail. Germany’s Novel Movement. Germany has started a unique move­ ment for tbe improvement of towns and small cities by constructing a number of garden cities, one Berlin society having acquired a large plot of land on the northern outskirts of the city for the construction under tbe name of Frabau of tbe first real gar­ den city of the capital. This city will be built in a pictur­ esque billy part of the state forest, will hare its own railway station and will be laid out regardless of cost as regards external adornment Judging from reports from all sections of Ger­ many. the idea has taken a firm hold on the people, the feature most insist­ ed upon being the abandonment of the flat house and the substitution of tbe small bouse and villa on tbe English model. In Bavaria, where there is al­ ways a shortage of houses, the gov­ ernment will transfer for garden pur­ poses part of the state forests in the vicinity of large towns. At Magdeburg houses with large gardens for single families will soon be rentable for about $G0 a year American money. It is to be hoped that this country will soon undertake tbe same kind of de­ velopment. A Good and Lasting Memorial.
