EISEMAN BROS,,
The Old Reliable Manufacturing Clothiers.
ESTABLISHED 1865.
The Time, the Place—and the Suit.
IIE "Linger-lohRer-Lncy” tendencies of winter have at last been
subjugated by the “fiat” of SPRING. •
Yotir indecision about what to wear and wh>re to get it will
be displaced by the decision of the mercury to take a steady
climb towards the high figures in the tube.
HERE to get your Spring Suit is a matter of easy solution after
you have gone on h tour of inspection through the superb lines
of Ready-to-Wear at Eiseman Bros.
Variety at this store makes choosing entirely subject to
vour individual tastes.
VERY good quality, apd no bad ones, center in the materials that
go into the Eiseman Bros.’ garments: All-wool fabrics; that’s
* tho dependable quality that provides the staunch support for
good tailoring—careful finishing—faultless fashioning.
The Eiseman Bros.’ Readv-to-Wear have all the distinctive
style characteristic, supposed to be found only in “custom-made'’
clothes.
XD this fact is sp obvious at first glance, that the clothing prac
tically sells itself. YOU—Mr. Ilard-to-Please: here’s the chal
lenge for your preference. No make of Clothing on the market
so thoroughly conforms to the demands of the man who “knows
style” who* can judge quality of material* and who, can de
termine twixt honest tailoring and the “other sort, as the
Eiseman Bros.’make.

O00000O00000000O0OO0OO000Q
Is It true that woman, after she his
attained what she most wants, rsfuses
to be satisfied and keeps on wanting
more? A bachelor friend of my ac
quaintance says It Is, and some others
1 know, mainly women, say It is not
And yet, pursuing my Inquiries for
several days I have come to the con'
elusion that women as a class are
never satisfied. If you are a woman
you know this la true. Also, If you
are a married man you have guessed It
ere this.
I suppose It Is born In woman, just
as curiosity and the love of finery and
motherhood and some other things are
born In her. I never could understand
why, but I suppose It was because
Mother Eve, after she had gained pos
session of the apple, kept on wanting
things, and we are but following In
her footsteps. We can't help It, that’s
all there Is about IL
The woman who Is poor always
thinks she would be perfectly happy It
she were rich. Just moderately rich.
She wouldn't care about belng-a mil
lionaire, or anything of that sort, but
she would like to be comfortably well
off, say a hundred thousand. And
while her husband Is working and
working away for dear life she Is In
dulging In day dreams of what she will
do when she reaches the one hundred
thousand mark.
And when she has reached the stage
where she can take a carriage Instead
of a street car, can order a meal at the
fashionable restaurant without looking
at the prices of the dishes, can go Into
the largest dry goods store In town and
have her purchases charged, she begins
to think how nice It would be If she
was the wife of a millionaire.
Only one million; she wouldn’t want
to be a Rockefeller or a Hetty Green,
but just a millionaire, with a steam
yacht and a garage full of automobiles,
and a house at Newport, and a racing
stable, perhaps. Finally he gets the
million, after, saving and struggling,
and working harder then any man on
earth ought to work. His wife’s ambi
tion forces 'him on, and on, until his
very mind turns Into money.
Still the woman Is dissatisfied. A
million Is not .enough. Neither would
ten millions or twenty millions be
enough, for Is she not a women?
When she has reached that height
to which she has been looking forward,
when she can order what she wants,
and know that there Is. money enough
to buy everything In the world, almost
till she is dissatisfied. She sits
down upon the wreck of her ambition,
and what does she sigh for? More
money?
Where Is the use In sighing for
that? She has more now than she
could spend in a lifetime. She sighs
for the old life, when she and her hue
bawl were poor—when they lived In a
modest way. when she herself set the
table,.cooked the meals and did all the
work of the little home except washing
and Ironing.
She tells herself she would be per
fectly happy back In the little home.
Until the day she dies she Is dissat
isfied. Always searching for the unat
tainable, never content.
What's the reason?
I just asked a man friend of mine and
he says It’s a disease that Is hereditary,
that originated in the Garden of Eden.
Is It that, or is It curiosity?

WHY CIVILIZATIONS
FADE AWAY AND
DIE ENTIRELY OUT
(By Professor Gustavs Le Bon, Unlver.
■lty of Paris.)
When the causes are examined that
led to the successive ruin of the va
rious peoples with which history Is
concerned, whether the. people In ques
tion be the Persians, the Romans or
any other nation, the .fundamental fac
tor In their fall Is always found to be a
change In their mental constitution re
sulting from a deterioration of their
character. I can not call to mind a
single people that has disappeared In
consequenco of the deterioration of Its
Intelligence.
For all the civilisations of the post,
the mechanism of dissolution has been
Identical—so Identical. Indeed, that It
■nay be asked, with the poet, whether
history, which has so many books, has
but a single page.
When a people reaches that degree of
civilisation and power ut which It Is
assured that It Is no longer expostd to
the attacks of Its neighbors, It beglni
to enjoy the benefits of pence and ma
terial well-being procured by wealth.
At this juncture the military virtues
decline, the excess of civilisation cre
ates new needs, and egotism Increases,
Having no Ideal beyond the hasty en
joyment of rapidly acquired wealth, the
citlsens abandon to the state the care
of public affairs and soon loss all the
qualities that made them great.
Then barbarian or seml-barbarlan
neighbors, whose needs are few. but
who are strongly attached to an Ideal,
tnvnde the too civilised people and prr..
ceed to form a new civilisation with the
■lebrls of that which they have over
thrown.
In this way It was that, In spite of
the formidable organisations of the Ro
mans and Persians, the barbarians de
stroyed the empire of the former and
the Arabs that of the latter.
Also, our hyper-refined civilisations
of today are In danger from similar
reasons, but also from othsr causes,
due to the evolution produced In men’s
minds by modern scientific dlscoverteo.
Bclence lisa renewed our Ideas and
deprived our religious and social con
ceptions of all authority. It has shown
man the 'trifling place he occupies In
the universe and tho utter Indifference
of nature toward him.
He haa perceived that what he used
