M' I! El WARM RIVALRY IN D, A. R. ELECTION tSxs. Fairbanks Retires and Sev eral Candidates Are After Chief Office. i By W. W. Jermane. Washington, March 8.The political situation among the Daughters of the American Revolution grows more inter esting as the time for the holding of the national convention approaches. Heretofore the date has been in Febru-4 nry embracing the 22d, but as Wash-' ington weather at that season is un pleasant, the laws of the society have been amended so as to bring the meet ings in April. The moat interesting feature of the session this year will be the election of a president general in the place of Mrs. Charles W. Fairbanks, who will not again be a candidate. Several candi dates are being considered, among them Mrs. R. A. Alger, wife of the junior senator from Michigan Mrs. Lrppitt, wife of a former governor of Rhode Island Mrs. George M. Sternberg, wife of the former surgeon general of the army and. Mrs. Donald McLean. Mrs. Dolliver, wife of the junior sena tor from Iowa, who at one time thought of entering the lists, has decided that she has neither the time nor the oppor tunity for a proper discharge of the duties of president general, and so she will not permit her name to be used. Mrs. Sternberg is the favorite with the national board and with Mrs. Fair banks, and she will undoubtedly be a strong candidate. During the Spanish war, she performed important service of a kind which has caused her to be re membered. Mrs. McLean has a good fighting chance. Many of those who have the welfare of the society at heart would be glad to see the dress parade element and the social prestige clan crushed, and they assert that Mrs. Mc Lean's election would contribute to that end. The contest is becoming highly interesting, and this interest is to in crease. Alice Roosevelt's Birthday. Miss Alice Roosevelt very recently celebrated her twenty-first birthday an niversary, and the occasion was made notable among the younger set in Wash ington. No formal entertainment marked the day, but Miss Roosevelt was entertained by her chum, Miss Jean Reid, at luncheon, and about a dozen young women were present. In the evening the party had a pleasant time at the Italian embassy. The Baroness Mavor des Planches, wife of the am bassador, remembered the president's daughter by giving her a superb lace fan, and there were other gifts, such as flowers and confections, in liberal quan tities. The president's gift has not been made public, but it is understood to have been a goodly sum of money, to be used as the young lady pleases, even if she decides upon a trip to Europe. Miss Roosevelt does not, as has been so frequently stated, inherit her moth er's fortune. Her mother's parents are ptill living, and the estate will not be di vided until after their death. Eventually, however, she will be worth anywhere from a quarter to two-thirds of a million dollars, but at present she has no stated income. Her grandpar ents and her father are very liberal with her, and so she has all the pin money that a young woman of her tasteB and position can conveniently spend. Spoiled a Dance. Miss Roosevelt was the innocent cause of the recent failure of a dance at the Mexican legation to come up to the expectations of 'Mme. Azpiroz, the hostess. She had accepted the in vitation to attend, forgetting that she had promised some time previously to attend an informal reception at Fort Myer on that evening. The clash of dates became known so late that all she had time to do was to pen a hasty note to Mme. Azpiroa. As soon as the voung men of the army and navy and diplomatic corps learned of what was afoot, they rudely remained away from the embassy and went galloping over to Fort Myer, where the president's dauhgter was to be found. Mme. Azpiroz was in despair, and the even ing at her home was about as dismal an affair as the entire social season has recorded. It is said that she has these uncivil young men marked for next season, and that they are never again to be invited to the Mexican embassy. Dull Affair at Morton's. Another dull social affair of the past week was a dance at the home of Sec retary and Mrs, Morton, in honor of the birthday of their daughter, Miss Pauline. Two-thirds of the men pres ent were not acquainted with the wo men, and nobody seemed to thing of introducing theni. Young Teddy Roose velt was present, and it is said that he stood in a corner for an hour, longing to dance and the girls dying to accommo date him, but as he did not know them, nor they him, he was like any other young fellow in a like position, the fact that he was the president's son not helping him one bit. He left the house in disgust after one dance with Miss Morton. Which goes to show that the Washington 400 has its ups and downs the same as society elsewhere.

The Mall Order* Will Be Promptly Filled. Reputation. A REPUTATION for fairness is desirable. The con fidence of the public is one of the most valuable as sets of a business house. We pass judgment upon the individual as to character from his associations. Judgment is rendered upon the business house from its methods. The character of the house is estab lished by the kind of goods carried and its treat ment of the customer. The only true way to gain the lasting confidence of the public and establish a reputation for fairness is strict business integrity and straightforwardness of purpose. To sell only a good grade of goods at a fair priceand where any dissatisfaction arises after a purchase, to make it right with the customer. A reputation such as this is not made in a day, nor in a month, nor in a year but in a succession of yearsand after it is once attained it must be maintained by constant, untir ing effort. Such an enviable reputation has the Glass Block, gained by adhering strictly to this fundamental principle of business, first laid down by the found er of this house.
