COMTLETEST BUSINESS BUILDING
Features of XV. L. Douglas' Administration
ar.tl Jobbing House.
The dedication of the new administration
and jobbing house building
erected at Brockton, Mass., by tiie W.
L. Douglas Shoe Co. as a part of its
inaunuoth manufacturing plant at Alontello
was marked by the thoroughness
and attention to detail characteristic
of the firm in all its undertakings.
As the new building is said to be the
moBt complete and convenient of any
ever built for a commercial house in
the United States, so were the expressions
of appreciation by the many persons
who visited it for inspection sincere
and of a highly congratulatory
nature.
The dedicatory program iucluded
?pen house from II a. m. to 8 p. m.
with concert by the Mace Gay orchestra
and the presence of a Boston
caterer to attend to the wishes of all.
The building itself afforded a feast for
the eye, especially the offices, which
are marvels in many ways. Fifteeu
thousand invitations were sent out, in.

'The new building is situated just
north of the No. 1 factory on Spark
/street, facing the Moutello railroad
station. Its completion marks the establishment
of a modern up-to-date
wholesale jobbing house and office
building. Mr. Douglas has loug considered
the advisabilty of a jobbing
bouse, not only for the purpose of supplying
his own retail stores more readk
ily, but that the 13,000 dealers throughout
the United States handling the W.
li. Douglas shoe might be able to obtain
shoes for immediate use with
greater facility.
onaer xoe present system an suoes
?re manufactured to order, and customers
sometimes lose sales waiting
, for shoes to arrive. Witli the new jobbing
house they will be enabled to
have their hurry orders shipped the
same day they are received, which will
be far more satisfactory to the customer
and will result in a largely-increased
business to the W. L. Douglas
Shoe Co.
The new building is 200 feet long
and 60 feet wide and two stories in
height. The jobbing department will
occupy the entire lower floor, while
the offices will occupy the second floor.
Leaving the new jobbing house ou
tLitr uibL uuui, iiiu uiiiiii iifc>eends
to the second floor level iu two
divisions separating on the first landing
and meeting again upou the fourth,
where the large Pal Indian window is
situated, which appears over the eutr&nce.
At the head of the staircase in
the mosaic floor appears the word
"Atrium," the name of the inner hall,
planned and decorated after the manner
of the central apartment of the
Poinpeiian house. This room is directly
in the center of the maim building,
being 2Gx6S and IC feet in height, and
is lighted by three large, ceiling skylights
of classic design.
Around the ntrium are placed the
private ofiices, where the heads of the
' departments are located, with their
assistants. Beginning at the right of
the main entrance, in order, are those
of the C. F. Richmond, buyer; II. T.
Drake, general superintendent; Hon.
\Y. l?. Douglas, president; and II. L.
Tinkham, treasurer. They are Gnished
and furnished in mahogany and are
ensuite. Mr. Douglas' own room occupies
the southwest corner of the
building, and is a very handsome
apartment. To the left of these comes
the room of C. D. Nevins, assistant
treasurer, Mrs. Marion Shields, correspondence
clerk, and the store department.
On the east of the atrium and opening
into this ball are two alcoves separated
by mahogany counters, the
fronts of which are plate glass and
grilles \)f bronze. These are the offices
of Warren Weeks, paymaster, and
Harry L. Thompson, the bookkeeper.
The next in order to the left are two
rooms devoted to the credit department,
one the private office of A. T.
Sweetser and the other occupied by his
' clerks. The next two offices nro those
of F. L. Erskino, advertising manager,
and big assistants.
Tbe three other rooms completing
the outer wall line of the atrium are
tbe reception room to the left of the
staircase ball, directors' room aud
I \ lavatory and tbe sample room. Here
are located the telegraph instruments,
telephone switchboard and booths for
use of guests.
The directors' room is a fine chamber
occupying tbe space in the northwest
corner of the building. This
room is finished and furnished in mahogany
and all appointments are in
keeping. Here hangs a portrait in oil
of Mr. Douglas, the president. The
last room in this series is the sample
room, also in mahogany.
On center with tbe entrance and between
the bookkeeper's alcove and the
eredit department is a hall leading tc
the general bookkeeping room, where
is located the host of clerks whicL
this huge business employs.

but allover Hamburg embroidery
gives a very good effect.
WHITE AND BLACK EFFECTS.

\ BRILLIANT SUNDAY SERMON BY
THE REV. WILLIAM R. RICHARDS.
Subject?"Following Jesus."
NEW YORK CITY.?In the Brick
Presbyterian Church, Sunday rnornng,
the pastor, the Rev. William R.
Richards, preached to a large congregation
on "Following Jesus." He took
for his text Matthew ix:19, "And
resus arose and followed him and
50 did his disciples," and said:
The question comes to us, What it
raeant to he a Christian at the time
tvhen Jesus was living on the earth?
Df course, the word "Christian" had
lot then -come into use, but the fact
is the Christian life existed, and our
luestion is, "What was it like, how
it began, how it showed itself, by
what upward step would a man prove
that he had made the great choice
md had become what we would now
:all a Christian? If we want to know
we have to look into the gospel of
history, and, looking there, we find
n plain and emphatic answer in one
word, the word "follow." For the
common way of announcing that any
man had made the great choice for
Jesus was to say, "He rose and followed
Him." There are sixty-nine
places where we read of one and another
and of many at once who followed
Jesus. That is the historic picture
of the Christian life in those
ilays. It is the leader walking here
and there about the -country and his
aisciples following Him. In the beautiful
parable Jesus is described as
the shepherd going on ahead and his
sheep, who proved they were his sheep
because they knew His voice, following
him. That is the regular order
r\t o caorori hifltorv: .TGSUS EOing
before and the others following. But
there Is one singular marked exception
to that order. It is all the more
striking because it stands alone. Just
once in the gospel of -history this
term is used, in the other order. Some
one else is leading, it is Jesus that is
following. Who can this other leader
be who spoke with such authority that
Jesus followed him? You might-think
It was some great teacher and lead-1
er exnerienced In the things of God.
But it was not so, because after
Jesus had once claimed the position
rs teacher He never consented to follow
another teacher. Or perhaps
some supreme ecclesiastic, who, because
of his sacred office could take
precedence of Jesus. But it was not
so, for if you look into the history
you find that our Lord never for a
moment rendered such supremacy to
any church official. His word was always
"Follow me." Or you might
think it was some civil ruler, like
King Herod or Pilate, or the great
Caesar himself at Rome. But it was
not so; He never consented to follow
any great uiau vu cai ?.??. ?. ,
"Render unto Caesar the things that
are Caesar's," but He was talking
about taxes, not His personal allegiance;
that was not one of the things
that were Caesar's. It was not at the
summons of any person that Jesus
rose up and followed. What was It,
then?
You remember the story. The man
was named Jairus. He was, it is
true, a ruler of the synagogue, but
that meant little more than the leader
of a prayer meeting. It would have
been just the same had he been a
beggar. He was a beggar on this occasion:
"While Jesus spake these
things, behold, there came a certain
ruler, saying, My daughter is even
now dead, but come, and lay thy hands
upon her and she shall live. And
Jesus Tose up and followed him." The
secret is out. There was a man who
could speak for a moment in a tone
of authority, then, to Jesus, because
he spake through more immediate
onnto/if TOi'th the world's sorrow and
and pain and need; that was what
gave bim his precedence. Lead on,
man! Jesus follows. How strange!
It seemed to me that we might take
this as one of the passages that remind
us of the Lord's humanity, showing
how He was shut out by limitation
of knowledge, how He must wait
until some one came and showed Him
the home where the shadow of death
was. I suppose it is true in some
sense, but as you muse upon, you feel
it 'was also an illustration of His
Godhood. What kind of message is
it that comes with authority to the
ears of the Creator? Some story of
His creature's need. It is our weakness
that moves God, our humility,
emptiness. It is our cry of emptiness
our cry of need, that moves God. If
It were possible to conceive of such a
thing as the limitation of the knowledge
of God?If you could conceive of
yourself as going into the presence
of God ai* informing Him that somewhere
.in some forgotten corner of
His universe .there was' some unknown
~ * 4Vto+ WCJO
creature, udkdowh iu xiim, mot.
perishing for want of Him, aA you
were the only guide qualified to show
the way to that creature, we may
say, with all reverence that you could
expect God Himself to rise up and
follow you. And Jesus rose tip and
followed Jairus to .the house of sorrow.
My friends, let us comfort ourselves
with the assurance that any
such message as that will move the
Lord today just as in the days of
Jairus. .Whatever pain or sorrow
there is in your own house or the
house of your friend, you may go to
Him straightway and tell Him, and
when you return you may be sure
that you are taking His presence with
you. Be sure a man of that kind is
a privileged character; he takes precedence
of all. When Jarius has finished
speaking, Jesus rises up and
follows him.
Now that is only the first part of
our text. This is the second part:
"And so did His disciples." As diseinlfifi
it. was their business to follow
Jesus, and now Jesus wa3 following
Jairus. Is not this a most excellent
example for any loyal church? The
question that ought to come to us is
the question of leadership, human
leadership of a Christian church, and,
of course, I shall often expect to find
that kind of leadership in the church
itself. Men and women experienced
in the things of God who can serve
as leaders for their younger brethren.
It was so in the days of the apostles.
Men like Paul who charged the
younger members that they should
follow him a? he was following Christ
and it was safe counsel. There ore
leaders in the church, but the question
which our text suggests is whether
there may ever be any kind of
.safe Iwdership inside the church from
outside the church. If any man from
outside appears and says "come,"
would it ever be safe for us to follow?
Certainly not always. If Christian
people are too ready to walk after
everybody .who beckons them
/
they are likely to wander oway from
the Master. There comes some new
teacher with great pretensions of visdom
who says, "Come, I will lead you
into higher region's than your master
has been able to show ycu." Anj
church that follows such may make
up their mind that they will soon lose
the Master. Or, again, it may he
some high church official who says he
will lead you to regions of religious
assurance that you have not found lu
following your Master. In the old
days it would have been the High
Priest; in our day it might be the
ancient and splendid hierarchy of the
army of Rome, but you and I are persuaded
that it is more blessed to fol
low the Master "who not having seen
we love." Christ has never consent
ed that we should follow any human
priest. Then, again, the churct
might consent to follow Caesar 01
some representative of political nowei
in the world. In following Caesai
we run the risk of losing the more
important guidance of Jesus. No po
litlcal power, no human prestige, n(
wisdom of the human understanding
is a safe guide for any church oi
Christ.
Then can you conceive of any hu
man leadership that it would be saf<
for the church or disciples to follow'
Yes. Here is this man. Jairus, wh<
comes from outside with this pitifu
story, and Jesus rises and follow!
%him, and so do His disciples. Jfai
man who knowns the-way to any kirn
of human sorrow or need or wronj
may claim a hearing from any churcl
of Jesus Christ, and if in the hearinf
they find he knows the way bettei
than we, he may claim not only i
hearing, but the following from th<
church of Jesus Christ. It is direc
imitation of His example. The churcl
has often been too slow; sometime!
hPPsniKfi wp did not like the man whe
called. The personal character of th<
leader does not come Into the ques
tlon at all. We want all those ii
sorrow to know that the best plac*
to come is always the church of Jesui
Christ. That the message will rt
cieve the promptest attention, and m
poor Jairus need ever go home along
Once his story was finished, Jesu:
got up and followed him, and so di?
His disciples. If we are disciples
it is our business to be followini
Christ, But how to follow Him? Whi
will lead us? I have no doubt tha
sometimes our Lord shows us the wa;
by those older antywiser in the churcl
and sometimes He exercises His Lead
ership through those without th<
church, messengers telling us of somi
one who needs help, and our busines
as Christians, not only as churchef
but as individuals, is to be listenini
always for that appeal, looking onl
tn the rvath that leads to the hous
where they need us. We cannot se
the face of Jesus, we cannot hear Hi
voice; it may teven seem to some c
us that we have lost the comfortini
sense of Jesus in our hearts. Wi
ask why He did not leave some guld
whom we could see and follow an
who would lead us back to Him an
before the words are out of our lip
here stands this Jairus. "Come" h
says, and you listen and you rise u
and follow him, and ns soon ns you d
something tells you that you are no
any longer walking alone. That los
companionship you were mourning fo
has been restored to you. This wa
His guide, and you have done wel
to follow him.
Thi3 is not my fancy. Let me reai
you the plain words of the history
"While he spake, behold! there cam
a certain Tuler, and when lie sa^
Jesus he fell at his feet and besough
him, saying, 'My little daughter liet
at the point of death. I pray the
come and lay thy hand upon her aq
she shall live, and Jesus arose an

The Beautiful Life.
To rise each morning with a though
of God in the soul, left over to fi'
a new mission from the night before
to kneel ere descending the stair
for the consecration of your life am
the renewed assurance of His guid
ance of you, just for that day; thi
is the true preface of a beautiful lift
says Rev. I. Mench Chambers. The
to uplift confident and reverent hand
toward some real gcod, yet unattaine
in character or service, and clain
ing it, to go forth to bring it nearei
by today's living, than it has eve
come before. This is to unlock God'
meaning of our innermost and deej
est spiritual life.
(Each moment will come in som
manner as an exact compliment c
your prayer and desire, and in tbes
hours God Himself shall quietly fu]
fill His thought within the fabric c
your experience. Thus to live in Go(
and to be assured of His indwellin
in you, is to mark afresh in a simpl
but beautiful manner the footsteps c
humanity's Christ and hallow life b
the revelation of His presence amoni
men. The crown of the morrow lie
in that approach to the Christ chai
acter which a life of faithfulness t<
day makes real and abiding.
Doers of the Word. ?
To be simply a hearer of God'
Word is not only to deceive oneseli
but to increase one's responsibility
"Inasmuch as ye did it not" is a shar
sentence which Jesus one day passe
upon His unfaithful followers. It i
a great thing to remember that God1
Word may be translated into Chris
tian living. If for each day we sboul
he eruided by one single precept, i
the process of time we would com
to know our Bibles as thoroughly a
we know our own names, but w
would also come to the place wher
the revelation of Jesus Christ woul
be very attractively presented to on
who might not read God's Word, bu
who would study our lives. "Be y
therefore doers of the Word, and no
hearers only."
Look Upward.
I cannot understand why those win
have given themselves up to God am
His goodness are not always cbeei
ful; for what possible happiness cai
be equal to that? No accidents o
imperfections which may happei
ought to have power to trouble theip
or to hinder their looking upward.St.

THIRTEEN TREES
Planted by Hamilton to Commcmor,
ate tho Original States.
' More than a century ago, on th?
> upper west side of New York, at a
> spot known as Fort George, but now
1 a part of Harlem, Alexander Hamilton,
whose breath was stopped by
' Aaron Burr's bullet, planted thirteen
I trees within a radius of thirteen
square feet. Now they are sturdy
I oaks and a splendid object lesson in
i forestry.
Although planted on tho knoll of
an obscure hill, this bunch of timber
1 attracts the attention of all who pass
that way, whether they know its his[
tory or not. You may face them fron
r any angle, or from any range of vis;
ion, and count them, but by some hor
cus pocus, you are sure to miscalcu>
late their number, invariably falling
* Hhort at least one tree, only a round
5 dozen being visible.
' According to the Chicago News, in

. this big trunk maze you must scale
the dilapidated fence surrounding the
oaks and count them one by one,
marking them in order to avoid a
. second error. You will then find that
tho unlucky number is there.
Harlemites, who are acquainted
with the mystery, frequently lay wafers
v/ith the unitiated. After arousiug
a stranger's curiosity they eagerly
bet him that he cannot count the
Hamilton oaks -correctly. They always
win, of course. Then they take
pride in telling the loser how to play
the game on others and get even.
The thirteen trees were planted by
Hamilton to commemorate the thir\
teen original States. ? Philadelphia
