oere wu never a truer a*y-
than that of the great Em-
in which has long since pass*
into a proverb: “If a man
write a beter book, preach a
sermon or make a better
r i*. the world will make a
beaten track to hi« door.”
We talk about a man "making
a name for himself.” By this we
mean that John Smith has ex-
celled in his calling, and that hia
name stands for par-excellence
ill the eyes of the community,
possibly in the eyes of the world.
If it is the law in which he has
made a reputation, we look Upon
him as an authority, and when
We wish legal advice upon any
important matter we go to him.
We know that the individual or
company or corporation will "sit
lutrtftltutis would h
ave been sat-
isfactory, or given us the confi-
dence that John Smith has, for
neither have “made names” for
themselves.
The pante principle applies to
the purchase of trademarked,
advertised merchandise. We
want a certain rasor or shaving
soap because each is recognized
as the beet in its class. The sub-
stitute offered MAY be "just as
good,1' but why should we take
a chance on an unknown article ?
We are eure of the trademarked
brand because we have been us-
ing it lot years, and its guar-
antee of satisfaction has been
fulfilled. Can we ask for more?
No merchant has a right to
offer us a substitute, nor should
he give us a substitute without
our knowledge or consent. He is

up and take notice" when papers working against his own best in-
are served with the name John
Smith, attorney, attached. Why?
Because he has “made a name
for himself”—he has a reputa-
tion for being a successful fight-
er. We feel that we have as
good as won our case When we
have such, a clever man to fight
our legal battle. We know that
if the case is settled out of court
John Smith can do better for
us than anyone else. Should it
go to the courts, we know that
his plea and summing up of the
case Will convince any right-
minded jury of our rights in the
matter. That was exactly why
we asked John Smith, instead of
his brother or partner, to take
the case. Although both attorn-
terests when hd does so. Patrons
should insist upon receiving the
trademarked, advertised brand
asked for, and if the merchant
does not have it in stock, or does
not carry it, he should state the
fact frankly, and offer to get it
for the customer. If he substi-
tutes, if he does not make sin ef-
fort to give the customer satis-
faction, he should not complain
when he loses patronage. There
is usually a reason when trade
is dull, at a season of the year
when it should be brisk, and the
merchant need not go beyond his
own doors to ascertain the cause,
for, if he is a wise man and
looks out for his customer’s
needs, “the world will make a

BIG BEER AND
WHISKEY TAX
At Washington decisions have
been reached that impose the
bulk of the $100,000,000 emer-
gency revenue measure upon
beer and whisky, which will
yield nearly $50,000,000 annual-
ly under increased taxation. The
caucus also eliminated proposed
taxes on gasoline and automobile
sales and cut in two the $2 per
thousand tax on bank capital and
surplus. Consideration of var-
ious proposed stamp taxes and
emergency levies on perfumery,
cosmetics and patent medicines
was not reached Wednesday.

DID YOU GIVE HIM A LIFT?
Did you give him a lift? He’s
a brother of men,
And bearing about all the bur-
den he can.
Did you give him a smile? He
was downcast and blue,
And the smile would have help-
ed him to battle it through.
Did you give him your hand? He
was slipping down hill,
And the world, so I fancied, was
using him ill.
Did you give him a word? Did
you show him the road,
Or did you just let him go on
with his load?
Do you know what it means to
be losing the light,
When a lift just in time might
set everything right?
Do you know what it me ms-

Unequaled In brilliancy by any^1
like event that lias bean held in
Texas will he the “Pageant* of
the Months and the Sea&one*,"^]
which will officially open the
week’s round of entertainment
at the National Feeders and
Breeders’ show on the night of
October 10. The day stock show
will open in the morning and will
last until Octobeer 17.
The "Pageant" might he
termed a crowning effort on the
part of Fort Worth society
women to offer a state wide so-
ciety event to inaugurate the
great exposition. It is declared
by those who have aided in the
planning of this magnificent
color and fashion show that it
will outclass easily the “Kir*
mess” and the “Horse Show
Pageant," now famous in the his-
tory «f opening n-ghts at the
National Feeder's and Breeders’
show.
Most of the details are being
worked out secretly but the idea
in general is a display of the
seasons and the months and their
attendant brilliances, as repre-
sented by young men and voung
women, attired in costumes ap-
propriate to the part they play.
At least 500 people will take
part in the event Dances of
weird nature and nf the latest
innovation will be given.
According to custom, a Queen
of the Horse Show Pageant will
he crowned. ' She will he a promi-
nent Fort Wortli societv girl,
whose nicntitv will he kept
secret until the night of the
show. Princesses and duchesses
from more than liftv cities and
towns in 1 exas have heen in-
vited to become members of the
royal party and take part in the
ceremonies that surround the
august event. t hese ladies will
he entertained hv a round of
sofial activities during tlie week.
E\erv arrangement has been
completed for the st'*'k and
horse shows, which now promise
to he the most brilliant in his-
tory, both from the point of ex-
hibits and of attendance. The
Coliseum building lias been put
