A Message to Garcia.
During the Spanish war the sec
retary of war had occasion General to com-)
with the Cuban
Garcia. He had no idea of where
Garcia was or how to get to him,
but he asked one of the general ot
ficers of tire American army to
send him a competent messenger,
A young lieutenant was sent. To
him the secretary handed the letter
v> •ith instructions to find General
Garcia and deliver it.
The lieutenant did not stop to
ask where Garcia was, nor how to
cet there, nor whether Gomez
would do as well. Neither did he
wait in Washington to buy some
new clothes nor see the theater.
What he did was to take the letter,
leave on the first train, stop not till
he got on the Florida coast, cross
to Cuba, plunge into the wilderness
and keep going till he found Garcia
and put the letter in his hand.
Then he took the answer back.
A railroad president,—a tnau
who had for years had to employ
help of all sorts, who had learned
to know bow poor a dependence IS
a worthless man, and how rich a
possession is one who can attend
to his business, a man who under¬
stood from experience the rarity of
competent labor, this sort of a man

how the world needs men who can .

•••• THE GREAT MID-SEASON SALE CONTINUED ••••
We do not say that we are selling Clothing at
COST, but we do say that we are not being UN¬
DERSOLD, and that an old shop-worn, or out-of-date
SUIT or OVERCOAT, can be found in our stock, which is one of the largest to be found in the
city. Owing to the great decline in OLOTHING, we can sell this season’s purchases at a profi
and undersell the man who sells previous season purchases at cost. Now see if we have not told
the truth.
