Novel Tours to the Pacific Coast via
Pennsylvania Railroad.
The early spring always attracts the
tourist, and of late years many
who have neglected their own country for
European wanderings have been brought
to some sense of realization of the wonders
of their own country, and have profited by
visiting and informing themselves of it.

tages, which do not attach to the Pennsyl

tours to the Golden Gate. The magnifi
cent Vestibule Pullman Palace Trains are
luxuriously equipped and manned by fhe
most efficient crews. The tourists are
nnder the charge of a Tonrist Agent and
and Chaperon, and have at their call for
ready service a ladies maid, a stenographer,
and typewriter. The two remaining tours
will leave N'ew York Thursday, March
26th, and Tuesday. April 14th, and the
round-trip rates will be $273 and S3OO res
pectively. The later tour will be run via
Portland and Tacoma returning. The rate
includes Pullman accommodations, meals
en route going and returning, six side trips,
and several carriage rides. For itineraries
and space application should be made with
out delay to Geo. W. Boyd, Assistant Gen
era' Passenger Agent, Philadelphia, or to

A Representative House.
The .-toadv. healthful growth of a town
; is marked by a corresponding enlargement
of it- trade and improvement in its busi
ness bosses. The mushroom growth o'
j the ''make or break" class of houses are
not to be compared in value to a com
j mnnity, to the toady, conservative, yet
prosperous firms which mark this. as every
thriving tow n.
To the latter cla-s most undoubtedly be
longs the merchant tailoring establishment
stjled the Wm. Aland. It i> r. wlO year
since Mr. Aland opened a tailoring estab
lishment on the ground the present bu.-i
ness is now carried on. and. until his death
i three years ago. his wise and conservative ;
' management and faithful attendance to i
business made his house a leader in its
line. A short time before Mr. Aland's
death, the growth ol hi- business nccessi
tated an enlargement and improvement in
its quarters, and the present air} - and com
modious building was erected on the site
of the old store-room. Upon the
decease of Mr. Wm. Aland, his son
Joseph Aland succeeded to the business, |
and taking advantage of the rapidly it; ;
creasing trade of our town, amply met all
its requirements and more than maintain
ed the supremacy of the hoase.
For a tune past, the building, apparent
ly of an ample -'ze when erected but three
years ago. has proven inadequate to the
requirements of the busincs.-. and some
wteks ago Mr. Aland put the carpenters
to work, and soon had an annex arranged, i
to which the cntting department has been
removed. Previously the cutting was done
in the rear of the stock room, but every
ineh of the spaee is now needed for the
stock. Paper hangers and painters follow
ed, and the result is one of the very fine-t
rooms in the town. A complete outfit of
carved and turned cherry tables were or
dered and made especially for Mr. Aland,
and these loaded down with rich goods of
the latest styles make a fine showing. As
an illustration of the growth of the estab
lishment. an inquiry developed the follow
ing facts: Upon its establishment Mr.
Win. Ala,ul carried a stock amounting to
SI,OOO. The stock to-day could not be
duplicated for le.-s than SIO,OOO. Sixteen
years ago, Mr. Aland employed 4 tailors,
now there are 14 employed during the
busy season in the establishment.
Recently Mr. Aland took a long stride
forward in securing at a corresponds g ex
pense the services of a city cutter of recog
nized skill and experience. Mr. William
Cooper. With all these advantages, com
bined with the push and business capacity
of Mr. Joseph Aland, the establishment
will continue to be a leader and one of the
representative houses of this place.
