Merchant Tailor-made Suits are
the Most
ECfflfIHDO
It has been claimed that ready-made clothes are cheapest
because they are made in quantities. This is not true.
If the manufacturer could have people come to his fac
tory and buy there, he could not even then give good value be
cause of the poor quality of material and inferior workmanship.
To the original cost of the garment, the manufacturer
must pay traveling salesmen's expenses and the retailer adds
another profit of about 40 per cent.
The original "quality price" is thereby lost and the price
is higher than that of a carefully merchant tailored suit made
here.
There are a great many men in this town who are
proud to say we make their clothes.
THEY KNOW WHY

LAYING OUT A ROAD.
Billings Wae In No Hurry, 80 tha Work
Was Don Right.
A good mnny years ago O. K. G. Bil
lings, who made bis millions In Chi
cago gas, bought a good sized plot of
ground on the heights overlooking the
Hudson river at the upper eud of Man
hattan Island. Soiue time later he put
up a house which still remains the
pride of "seeing New York" guides.
When the land hud beeu bought the
question arose as to the best weans of
laying out a roadway up the steep and
rocky bill, at tbe crest of wbich the
house was to stand. Mr. Billings was
puzzled. He wanted to make It as easy
a climb as he could. He mentioned the
problem to his friend W. C. Muschcn
helm, a New York hotel proprietor. Mr.
Muschenheini. who was familiar with
the hills and dales of that part of New
York, gave the following advice:
"You aren't In any great hurry, so
why don't you have It done right? Put
one of your cows on that land and give
her time to lay out a path up that bill.
Trust her to find the easiest and most
comfortable grade."
Mr. Billings followed the suggestion,
and in the course of time the cow
made a path which has long. since been
developed Into a permanent, winding,
slowly ascending roadway. Saturday

BIRTH OF A LETTER.
Tho Way "W Cama to Taka tho Placa
of tha Old "VV." " '
The printers and language makers of
the latter part of the sixteenth cen
tury began to recognize the fact that
there was a sound in spoken English
which was without a representative lu
the shape of an alphabetical sign or
character, as In the first sound in the
word "wet"
Prior to that time It had always been
spelled as "vet," the v having the long
sound of u or of two u's together. In
order to convey an Idea of tbe new
sound they began to spell such words
as "wet" "weather," "web," etc with
two u's, and as the u of that date was
a typical v the three words above look
ed like this: "Vvet" "weather."
"web."
After awhile the typefounders recog
nized the fact that the double u bad
come to stay, so they joined the two u's
together and made the character now
so well known as w. There are books
tn which three forms of the w are giv
en. The first Is an old double v vn;
the next Is one in which the last stroke
of the first v crosses the first stroke of
tbe second, and tbe third is tbe com
mon w we use today.
Real Literary Crumbs.
The librarian opened tbe book wide
and shook It hard.
Looking for possible love letters
and mementos?" a visitor asked.
'No; breadcrumbs." said the libra
rian. "Subsequent renders do; not
mind love letters, but they do object
to breadcrumbs. .Ilalf the books
brought back hare crumbs tucked
way between the leaves. That shows
what a studious town we are. Our
people are so enamored of literature
that they can't stop reading long
enough to eat; also It shows what a
lonely town we are. Only people who
lire alone a great deal read anything
except the newspaper at mealtime.
And it shows what a slovenly town we
are. In the Interests of hygiene and
aesthetics those voracious readers who
cram their heads and their stomachs
at the same time ought to clean their
books of crumbs, but they never do."

Hindu Cast.
The four grades of society among the
Hindus are the Brabmans or sacerdo
tal class, who are said at tbe moment
of creation to have issued from the
mouth of Brahma; the Kshatrya or
Chuttsee or military class, sprung from
the arm of Brubma; tbe Vaisya or Bals
or mercantile class, from the thigh of
Brahma, and Sudras or Sooders or
servile class, from tbe foot of Brahma.
The business of the Sudras is to serve
the three superior classes, more espe
cially the Brahma ns. Their condition
Is never to be improved. They are not
to accumulate property and are unable
by any means to approach the dignity
of the higher classes. These divisions
are hereditary, impassable and Inde
feasible. Precedent For "Governess."

the Low Countries, but left her the
title of governess. Her husband died
