This beautiful and modern store, The Toggery, Is, we believe, tho only store, save one or possibly two others, which has continued under the same management since Us very first In ception. It la a splendid record and speaks for Itself of tho Integrity and genuineness of tho policies upon which It was founded, and the standard which It has co consistently maintained. The Toggery Is unique and always hns been In this respect: That while it Is of a handsome and dignified aspect, yet It embodies that spirit of friendliness which draws to it all classes the spirit that convinces even the humblest purchaser that It Is asinterested and anxious to please and satisfy him In his pur chase of' a pair of overalls, as It Is In the purchaser of one of their finest suits of clothing. Nor is this Just "business policy"; we who know "Toggery BUI" (and pardon us If we grow a bit personal) have noted during mnny years that he finds his greatest happiness always in bring ing happiness to others nor does his right hand always know what his left hand doeLh. Mr. Isaacs' friends, from e low liest to the hlghcHt, all call him "Bill" and thfs Is a bl testimony to any man. We are always sorry for the "Williams" of this world who have not rated tho affectlonote "Bill" from thPlr friends, but who go coldly on to the end being Just "Wllltam.
