His First Step in Running a
Successful Millinery Business'
My fust step r .! h my success
lias beui built commences with my con
tract or agreement that I make with the
cuntero whom 1 represent.
' When a concorn engages a buyer or
jiiar.aKcr of a department he usually asks
tho buyer how much profit he can make
Jn that department. Usually the buyer
tfils his employer of a profit which ap
peal to the employer. To encourage this
buyer to tnako this profit tho employer
very often agree to pay a salary nnd
In addition gives the buyer a bonus of
6 per cent on whatever profits he' can
earn. The buyer usually accepts tho low
ralary offered him with tho Idea of mak
ing up his renttmerntlon from the 5 per
cent of the profits of his department. In
other words, If he will show n profit at
tho end of tho year In that department
of $20,000, he will have Increased his salary
for himself $1,000. This Is an Incentive
to charge high prices for millinery. An
stated above, my first step commences
with my contract, and hero I differ from
most buyers, ns my contract alwnys rends
a salary nnd a percentage on tho volume
of business nnd nut n. perrontagu on tlio
profits. The man that has to show a
big profit in order to Increase his salary
will naturally charge morn for his mer
chandise, but In my ense In order to do
an Increased business to get my bonus,
I must sell my merchandise very low In
order to get tho voluma of business, be
cause the volume of business Is my suc
cess. It gives me tho largest buying
power which In Itself brings down tho
cdst of the merchandise. Where tho
Oliver buyer makes $10.00 profit on one
hat, It has been my custom to sell
twelve hats at 1.00 profit each mid ntlt
mako a bigger bonus tlian the manager
Who makes the enormous profit, because
I have still mado more, profit then hn
nnd have, at tho same llnio pleased twelve
women to his one

The commission form of government
Is to bo extended to cltlos with as small

a bill to that effect and the senate
will ngreo to tho same, after making
a graded scnlo for the salaries of the

for It In many of tho smaller cities of

The contest committee of the senate
handling tho contest from Pottnwattnmle

and that Immediately thereafter tho com

the Incumbent was delaying final action.
Will Hasten IliiKluess.
Tho sctiuto committee today adopted
now rules for hastening business, by a
requirement that individual senators may
not Introduco nny bill nfter March 30,
nnd thnt all appropriation bills must be

nlll matters before the legislature early
and out of tho way.
Tho senate adopted a resolution asking
for a prompt Investigation of tho busi
ness of tho state fnlr so that the legis
lature may bo Informed before tho ap
propriation bills aro considered.
llenrliiK mi College Mutters,
Tlio sennte today amended the resolu
tion In rcgnrd to n Joint session of the
two houses to thresh out tlio collego con
troversy by prohibiting that tho Joint
session shall not be executive In Its na

plan, however, Is to keep out the largo

Tho houso pnsscd a bill making it pos

A bill will bo presented to tho legisla

of weights nnd mensures shall Inspect tho

out of order or weighing incorrectly have
the right to close them up. This also In
volves n license fee of $3 a year for each
of tho machines and, ns there nro over
10,000 of tho mnchlnes in use in the state,
It Is estimated this license would far more
than pay tho cost of inspection for nil
weights nnd measures,
I'liin us to Hluhvrny.
Tho subcommittee on highways, which
hns been laboriously at work for some
tlmo on n plan for n highway -law, hns
agreed upon the main points and will
soon bring out a bill to the effect that
tho stato highway commission be
strengthened nnd Its force added to, and
thnt the commlsKlon employ nn engineer
and competent forco to look after nil
highway matters; also that lit ench county
thero shall bo n county engineer nnd a
classification of roads; that the township
road tax bo expended on surfacing town

.taxes be expended on tho county roads In
accordance with plans approved by the

Hills aro pending to make an Important
change In the military cods of the state,
as, for Instance, to repeal that port of
tho law under which n sheriff mny call
out the mllltln company In ills own county
nt the expense of the county. This would
mako It necessury to secure the order of
the governor before nny company can be
culled out for police duty In tho state,
und In all cases the state will pay the
expense of such special work out of the
general funds. A bill also provides for
Increnso of armory rent for each company
and organisation from W0 a year to 31,200
a your.
lleorituiitxe Department.
A partial reorganisation of the labor de
partments of the stute Is proposed in
a bill to provide for workmen's compensa
tion. The bill contemplates that the laoi
bureau be enlarged nnd that the commis
sioner of labor become tho hend of a do
partmeut of Industry, under which shal'
be all the faotory Inspection, the mine in
spection, the hotel Inspection and all mat
ters relating to labor. There will be a
commissioner at 13,000 a year with two
deputies and a woman deputy and six
Inspectors. It would abolish the mine in
spection und examination departments as
at present and the hotel Inspection busi
ness, This feature of the bill is being
urged by the manufacturers' association.

no doubt they will do a great deal of
good. Sometimes I am almost tempted
to buy a bottle of Pe-ru-na and have It
on hand, because of your convincing
talk, but I belong to a healthy club. It
Is one rulo of this club to have nothing
to do with disease or medicine. Our
whole talk is health and things that make
for health. We aro determined, all of us,
to never use medicine In any form. Of
course we do not attempt to deny the
usefulness .of medicine on some occa

that we will so live that we shall never
need the services of a doctor or the as

What would I advise you to do under
the circumstances? 1 should advise you
to go right on as you have been doing.
Get uiong without medlciuo if you pon
blbiy can. Look toward Nature for as
sistance Clean habits, frugal diet. Early
to bed, in a well ventilated room. Work
every day at something you like to do.
Keep up your enthusiasm. Have faith in
Nuture nnd Nature a God. The laws of
.Nature are Inexorable, but the rewards
of Nature are Hind and beneficent beyond
ull expression. If you do these things
you may during your whole life escapu
the necessity of using medicine, but even
with all this you may occasionally need
medicine.
But you must remember that you and
your club aro exceptional people, that
the great masses of people go on thought
lessly. Their diet Is very illy fitted to
sustain their bodies properly. Their ex
posure to cold nnd wet and heat and
latlgue Is very reckless. In short, they
do not know how to take care of them
selves. Consequently, a medicine is nec
essary often.
The medicine Pe-ru-mv Is a climatic
medicine. It is Intended to reach cli
matic troubles, troubles that arise as the
direct result of exposure to climate.
It is also Intended to meet those dif
ficulties which arise 'from Improper
nourishment of the body and improper
diet, producing Indigestion und bilious
ness. The priclnpal climatic trouble In our
country is catarrh, and a largo number
of people have catarrh. Perhaps one-halt
of our people. Such people not only need
to take care of themselves as you boys
are doing, but they need a medicine to
tender them a little assistance. Pe-ru-na
is exactly what they need.
It we could have the world full of peo
ple that nre living as you ure, perhaps
I should then not advocate the use of
any drug, but you ark only one in ten
thousand. The rest are going on heed
lessly and recklessly, and It is for them
that I nm recommending my Pe-ru-na.
The average household needs Pe-ru-na
more than 1 can possibly describe. The
small children, the father and mother,
th grand children, are all stumbling
along heedless of the laws of Nature. A
The low terms quoted on this suite give you ten
months In which to pay for same. We feel that this
is all any reasonable person could possibly ask. arid
32.00 a month will certainly not incur nny hardship.

sudden attack of cold, a chill, cough,
hoarseness, tightness in the chest, bil
iousness, dyapepsiu, any, one of these
things is llablo to occur at any time In
such a household.
Now. such people ought to have! Pe-ru-na.
At the first symptom that pre
sents Itself, or any disturbance of the
body, a few doses of Pe-ru-na should bo
taken. If tho disease is acute Pe-rurna
hnd better bo taken a teaspoonful eveiy
hour. If it is a disturbance that allows
the patient to go about his usual busi
ness, taken according to the directions
on the bottle is best. If this Is done it
will save tho people untold expense ond
suffering. Not one case In fifty that
comes under the care of the doctor
would occur if Pe-ru-na was kept in the
house and taken at tho very outset of
the trouble. Yes, all this Is true and more.
I havo hoped all my life to live to see
the day when obedience to the laws of
Nature would be prevalent, when the
people would llvo so they Would not. In
vite disease or provoke disturbances' In
the body. But I have not lived to' see
that day yet. But I havo lived to Bee the
day when the people and even ihe medl
cal profession are very much mora in
terested in hygiene and sanitation than
thev used to be.
At one time, as a writer, I seemed to
be nil alone In trying to got tie r.cdple
to listen and become obedient to' tho laws
governing their bodies. Now there are
writers galore saying the same things. 1
am profoundly grateful that this is so.
So long as there are disobedient ones,
so long we must have medicine. Even
those who aro trying to be obedient to
the laws of Nature, trying their very
best, need medicine for unavoidable cpn
dltlons that often bring on some de
rangement If such little derangements
were met promptly with Pe-ru-na the
day would more quickly come when even
Pe-ru-na would not be needed, the day
when the drug doctor would absolutely
go out of business. May that day hasten.
I Bhall do all I can while I do live to
hurry on the coming of that millennium
when all drugs will be relegated to the
rubbish heap and all doctor books laid
aside as curiosities.
