( J l ' l3 '* London Observer recently reprint - | ed the following paragraph from its issue .of July 17, 1»10 (published over 100 yeans ago): "In the massacre of the crew of the Boyd by the savages of New Zealand, it appears that the boy Davison, who was saved, owed the preservation of his life to being club-footed, the taking him for the son of the devil!" THE MELBOURNE—AN APPRECIATION. "They have won their fight and secured the prize"—i.e., the full confidence and liberal patronage of the public. The modern gladiators who entered the Reno ring a few weeks back did not know whose would 1)e the victory or whose defeat. There's a distinctive difference here! Many years ago, when the Melbourne Clothing Company entered the arena to fight the fight for absolute cash- ' trading principles, they had but one goal, one prize in view, and that was the confidence, endorsement and approval of the public. They won, as fighters of strenuositly will, when on their banner is inscribed, "Justice, Equity and Fair Dealing." Time has but served to make that Melbourne motto grow brighter, larger, more luminous and vastly more meaningful. At the outset these principles were adopted—to be absolutely free and impartial ibuyers in the markets of the world; the elimination of the middleman; to exercise their great spotcash buying ability' in a free and untrammelled manner; and to foe positively fearless of all competition. How well the firm has succeeded in the carrying out of th&e principles can be seen to-day in their fine ibig corner store—a stupendous monument of what can be achieved in a few years by wholesome modern business methods. The public are invited to the big corner store because the management feel they deserve the visit—feel it with the confidence Iborn of intimate knowledge of facts. GROWING ALL THE TIME.
