Mr, O'llnra will tako his phonograph with him nnd mnko rccorda right In tho topees of these Indiana In tholr own environ- inont We have been studying the needs of our patrons in St. Johns for about seven years now somewhat after the following system: when de ciding what pattern to carry inquiry was directed to our customers;, the result was that three out of five questioned preferred the Buttericks, so we secured the agency. We carried a jobbers line of corsets for two or three years' but in quiry developed a preference for the Warner Rust Proof Corsets. Our sales have increased monthly since we took the agency for them. When it becamfe obvious that guaranteed hosiery led in popularity our patrons and our personal experience decided us on the Wunderhose line and they too have increased our hosiery sales many per cent. At our Mens' Toggery, we carry several different lines that were placed with our store simply because weinquredthe preference of our pat rons and stocked accordingly. The Peck line of Men's and Young Men's Clothing, the Headlight Overalls and the Lemar Neckwear are proving particularly popular. Is it not reasonable then -for us to nresume that our business is beino 1 built along the right lines? Any store in St. Johns or elsewhere will be successful by following these lines and treating the patrons as the mer chant himself would like to be treated were circumstances reversed. But this is not all; to have your St. Johns' stores large, growing and more successful, we must have a patriotic civic interest in the community. Every dollar spent in St. Johns makes a bigger and better St. Johns. BON HAM & CURRIER STATEMENT 7 i By FRANK BONVILLE Tho two stores owned and operated by the Equal Rights Company, located at Jersey and Leavitt Streets, St. Johns,Oregon,and Lombard and Westanna street Port land, and organized under the Bonville 99 Year System, are making unprecedented success judging from both ap pearances and results. The present outlook for the stock holders is certainly gratifying; and they may well con gratulate themselves that tho inside management is in the hands of men of acknowledged business ability, and who arc governed directly by results. Under tho Bonville 99 Year System the chance of fail ure is almost eliminated. At least, is reduced to the min imum, as all business is conducted strictly on a cash basis, and all stock is fully insured. If through the demerits or mismanagement of a com pany organized under this system, a failure results, the company may bo dissolved by three-fourths of the stock holders agreeing to such dissolution. If the investment is satisfactory to the majority, and the results justify continuing the business, the 99 year ehujae stands good. Is revoTdt'ionizing the Business World What is?
