PUBLIC CONFIDENCE
As Seen bj the General
Public confidence is the great
est asset that any house of
business can possess. It Is
more to be desired than the
ability to make money.
There are degress of publlo
confidence. It may be *ero. a
minus quantity, or a plus quan
tity. At rero no confidence ex
ists—nobody is for or against
such a house. But this condi
tion can exist only where the
house or Its goods are unknown,
and as soon as the public has
given the house a trial it will
pass Judgment, and public con
fidence will then be expressed
b;- - a plus or minus sign, accord
ing to the approval or disap
proval of the public as to the
goods and policies of the house.
If the goods are not as repre
sented, or if the policies are not
In accordance with the ethics of
good business, public confidence
will drop to a minus quantity
and the people will transact
buslnesr with its competitors
whose business ideals arc on a
higher and more satisfactory
plane. If the goods are satis
factory, and if the policies of
the house are right, the people
will continue to do business
with that house and will help
to build it up.
The plus sign of publlo con
fidence is always attached to
the name of a house 'of business
that considers service to Its
customers, absolute integrity
with reference to its goods, and
high idenla In its business poli
cies, as being of greater conse
quence than the mere earning
of dividends. A well satisfied
community of customers is the
key to the success of any house
of business, and, having estab
lished this, dividends will be
sure to follow.

Rachael Marshall's new play, "The Traffic." which comes to the Ma
jestic to-morrow evening and Wednesday, matinee and evening, with Bess
Sankey and a notable supporting company, has created a sensation ill Chi
cago where it played to crowded houses for four months. An unusual play
by an unusual woman, a splendid company of capable actors and a stage
of investiture which is notable for accuracy and completeness are some of
the promises made for the production. "The Traffic" deals with so-called
white slavery, but approaches the topic from an industrial rather than from
strictly ethical standpoint. The situations and dialogue are said to abound
in wit, wholesome humor, genuine pathos and shrewdly practicaly philos
ophy.—Advertisement.
