THE CODE OF CONF'IDENCE
Get the co,nfidence of the public and you will have no difficulty in getting therr patronage. Inspire your whole force with the right spirit of service I encourage every sign of the true spirit. So display and advertise your wares that customers shall buy with understanding. Treat them as guests when they come and when they go, whether or not they buy.
Give them all that can be given fairly, on the principle that to him that giveth shall be given. Remember always that the recollection of quality remains long after the price is forgotten. Then your business will prosper as a natural process.-I{. Gordon Selfridge.

,,FOR JOY"
By Florence Earle Coates
For each and every joyfu,l thing, For twilight swallows on the wing, For all that nest and all that sing,-
For fountains cool that laugh and leap, For rivers running to the deep, For happy, care-forgetting sleep,-
For stars that pierce the sombre dark, For morn, awaking with the lark, For life new-stirring 'neath the bark,-
For sunshine and the blessed rain, For budding grove and blossomy lane, For the sweet silence of the plain,-
For bounty springing from the sod, For every step of beauty trod,For each dear gift of joy, thank God!
SHE NEEDN'T WORRY !
"Brethren and sistren, when de las' day arrives dere shall be weepin' an' gnashin' of teeth."
"Oh, Lordy !"
"Sister Mandy, what ails you?"
"I ain't got no teeth."
"Teeth will be furnished," added the parson.
To write well is to think well, to feel well, and to render well; it is to possess at once intellect, soul and taste. -Buffon.
