Letter From Seattle, Wash.

Under date of June 2. Christie Vick, formerly of Rensselaer, but for the past few years a resident of Seattle, Wash., writes The Democrat, and. among other things, says: jiere is very nice now. The rainy season is over and during the day it is quit© warm, while at night one can sleep with a couple of comforts over him. At this time of year the scenery is fine, the large fir and cedar trees the ferns, beautiful orchards, roses and flowers of all kinds in abundance, while at any time during the day one can see the snow-clad tops of the Olympic and Cascade mountains glistening in the sunlight. Mt. Rainier, which is 14,524 feet,.high is also a very beautiful sight. Harry spent last week at Gold Bar, Wash., up in the Cascade Mountains. together with a friend of his, and had the time of his life. Harry has a good position in the office with the president of the Bon Marche, which is the largest department store in Seattle, employing several hundred clerks. We are all well and feeling fine, and would like to make a visit back to old Jasper, but the railroad fare don't leave much of a hundred dollars, and it is too 'far to walk, so trusting that you and your family are enjoying good health, and with best wishes to my friends. I will postpone my trip for the present. The Democrat acknowledges receipt of copies of the Seattle papers from Mr. Vick containing detailed accounts of the recent aviation meet there in which several people were killed.

T— I" “ Advertising Talks |

“PEPPERY PARAGRAPHS” c The merchant who “takes everything as it comes’* doesn’t take much. Success is not measured In feet, but by head and heart. The time to prove yourself a real merchant is when times are bad —anyone can sell goods when business is good. Try as hard to please customers as you do to get them to come to your store. People won’t buy at your store unless there is some better reason than that you want them to. Where prices are fairest and goods the best, it doesn’t make much difference to most people what church, lodge or political party the merchant belongs to. i The only genius required for success In business is the genius for hard work. You’ll gain far more by co-operat-ing with competitors than by fighting them. If you give all the attention you should to your own business yov’ll have no time to work against another’s. The surest way to keep customers is to make it so profitable for them to trade at your store that they'll lose money to leave. \ Some merchants conduct their •tores as though one sale is all they ever expect to make —and it generally is—to the same person.
