cclyoil In Tea lM)n,
Sptclal Cdrrttpondrnce of Ihi Vhttaao Trlhun:
Philadelphia, Dec, 20. At 8 o'clock
tills morning John Wntiamakcr, tho
greatest inci chant at retail in tho world,
seated himself nt his desk In tho north
west corner of tho second floor of his
fttAro nild began looking over his morn
ing mall. When I culled an hour later
ho was bus.y with a'hugo stack of papers,
cacli as largo as a pago of the Tribune,
nnd covered with writing, There must
hnvo been 100 of those queer looking
sheets of paper, and their written con
tents would make a largo book. Tho
merchant read them carefully one by
ono, but with a quick eye.
Ho Is a man of average size, but with
nu unusually largo head. Illsfacd Is Ono
to be remembered. It is not oxpiessivo
of tho strength nnd humor ono sees In tho
fnco of Phil. Armour, nor of tho nulot
persistency and mental evenness which
nro conspicuous iu thfl fnco of Marshall
Field, who, with Mr. Wanamaker, are
tho three greatest merchants of tho
world, but It ulvci outward evldcnco of
unlmio individuality, of tricat executive
force, a grasp of fundamental1', and that
sort of Impulsiveness which hilugs quick
decision and prompt action. It Is n
beardless face, which appears to fall
rapidly backwards lu all directions from
the luuitth. Tho abscttco of tho firm,
strong chin is so striking as to confuso
tho physiognomists, for that tho man
does not lacTc firmness tho placo-hunleis
will readily discover in case ho shall tako
a scat in Pioslddit Harrison's Cabinet.
"Doubtless you aro wondering what all
theso papers arc," said he. "Well, I will
toll you. When I canlo to my desk last
Wednesday morning I was naturally
thinking about tho Chi Istnias trade which
wo had. Wu did a great deal of Christ
mas business in this storo this year.
Durlnc tho ten days previous to Christ
mas our sales hovered about $100,000 a
day. The grnud total for tho ten days
falls only a few dollais under a million.
A great trade surely, but we shall beat It
next year. I nm already planning for
HC.xt year. This big pilo of papers hero
is a part of our preparations for the holi
day trade of 18SU."
Tho great merchant, whoso methods
aro worthy tho study of all other mer
chants, small nnd great, spread ono of
tho sheets out beforo him and continued
"When I enmo to work last Wednesday
my thoughts ran on to tho Christinas that
Is to come, lu five minutes I had written
this:
8:80 a. m. Wednesday, 12, 20, '89. Tho In
teresting oxperlcnco of tho past ten ilajs' trndo
has taught us innuy things.
Knch of us lias been snjhig If I had this to
do over agilii, I co how 1 could Improve It
there and there.
Whllo tho ho1o matter Is fresh on your
mind Jot down whatever occurs to you that
nbto limy le mads ot It for future uc.
Do this between now uud tl o'clock to
morrow, audhsud this paper to mo pore dually.
J. i .
"Horo aro sub-headings," continued
Mr. Wanamaker, "for arrangement of
stock, soaco required, help, general sys
tem, coinplnints, suggestions, etc, I sent
this to my printing oilleo tipBtalrs with
Instructions to stHkothcmoD. in an hour.
Ono of theso blanks was sent to every
head and assistant head of 'depaitment,
overy nislo manager, every poison in a
position of responsibility, nnd when I
reached my dcslt next morning hero thoy
wero written out and signed. Now, what
havo 1 accomplished by this? Why, I
havo learned more about tho details of
my business than I could havo learned
in an hour's talk with each of rav subor
dinates.1 I caught them when their minds
wero fresh with tho dllllcultlcs nnd
needs of tho Christmas trade and nncour
aged them to give their opinions deliber
ately and carefully over their signatures.
I havo mtulo all of theso asslstn nts feel
that they havo nn interest in this busi
ness, and their opinions am valued. On
theso reports, when thoy shall havo been
catofully rend mid summarized, plans
will bo laid for next year, instructions
given to buyers, changes inado in the nr
rangoment of tho storo mid improvements
bo effected in tho methods."
THE SECIlET 01" SUCCESS.
"What fundamental principles havo
you attached tho greatest importance to,
Mr. Wanamaker, In tho building up of a
vnst business liko this r"
"I havo tried each day to do that day's
work, and to mako ench following day
nn improvement upon Its predecessor.
Tlint is the whole secret. This business
of ours Is uiillko any othi'r in tho world.
Wo sell all kinds of merchandise except
LrocerIes and provisions, but wo will not
handle goods which people do not wilht.
I mean by this that wo never tako ad
vantage of tho vastnoss or popularity of
our business to foibt upon the people
cnods which they ought not to buy.
Wc do not struggle simply to sell goods,
to mako cheap prices, The lion Maicho
of Paris is the greatest retail cntnb
lUhinont of tho world, excepting
tills. Our storo Is one-fourth larger
than tho Bon Marcho. Thorti cheapness
is tho first romilritc, Thuy send their

THE HAltlUSONS AS SOliDlKltS-
The Military Itocuril uf tlio I'umlly
llroticht to Light.
Prom their hlnh military titles It Is
doubtful If many people over associated
tho names of Gcnchilllenjamln Harrison,
tho Prcstdont-clcct, and his illustrious
grandfather's, Gcnoml William Henry
Harrison, with tho humbler military
titles and grades. General Benjamin
Harrison entered tho military service as
a lieutenant and raised a company, after
ward Company A of tho Sovcntleth In
diana, whereupon Govomor Ollvor P.
Morton, on July 22, 1802, commissioned
him captain. Whon ho had completed
tho organization of the reglmont ho wns
promoted, on August 7, 1802, to tho olllco
of colonel, and inusteied into active
Bcrvico tho snino day.
From colonol ho roso to tho rank of
brlgadlor-general of volunteers, "Whllo
thOso facts aro matters of comparatlvu
iccent history, tho early military career
of General William Henry Harrison is
not so well known, nnd It will sin prlso
many to learn that President William
Henry Harrison cntorcd tho army as a
private soldier. Tho following extract
from n letter written by Benjamin Har:
risou, "tho Signer", and father of
William Henry Harrison, to Mnor
Genoral ChaileS Scott, afterward Gov
ernor ot Kentucky, nnd dhtcd Octobor
10, 1702, establishes this fact. Ho con
cludes his letter:
"And now, boforo I tako my leivo,
permit mo,to tell you my sou, u youth of
10 years of nfttf, I have seht forwaid in
tho character of a prtvato soldier under
Captain Kolllns. his youth nml inex
perience, I havo no doubt, will stand in
need of your lriendship, therefore I piny
you teach him tltb duties of his Btatlou,
ami it any accitiont snouui nappeu
him, pay somo attention to hira.
Your obediont and huiublo servant,
HEfcJAMIH IlAlmisoK.
Thus il appears that ''Old Tlppecanoo"
began his famous military caieer as a
prlvnto soldier and roso by degices to tho
uxaltcd rnnk of commander-in-chief,
something that no othor man in history
over aohioved, beginning from the ranks.
Prom tho same authority ailothor inter
esting historical fact Is gleaned, that
Benjamin Harrison, "tho signer," had
himself received an appointment under
GcnoralWayuoand Intended accompany
ing him on the expedition against the
Northwestern Indians, hut was uiinblo to
do so from "having," as ho writes,
"three of my ribs biokcn near tho back
bone, also loosened from my breast, nnd
ono broko nenr tho middle." It was
under theso circumstances that ho dutor
mincd to send his son, even in tho hum
hlo capacity of a private soldlor.

From the lluffdlo Xxprm.
"Havo you got anything horo begin
ning with 'k that's good to eat?" in
quired a now customer in a well-known
local delicacy market last Tuesday. "How
will pickled kidneys answer?" replied
tho clerk, after a moment's thought.
"First rate. Qlvo mo a dozen cans.
Tho kitten's life Is saved," ex
claimed the strange patron with enihu
Biniim. "I told my wife," ho continued,
"that if I failed to send homo a kanga
roo, dead or nllvo, boforo i o'clock I
should expect to find tho kitten seived
up for supper in tho latest Chineso
style. But your happy thought saved
her. You seo wo nil got tired of enting
tho same things day nftor day, and so
last month wo ngreed that during Do
comber wo would begin and oat up
(or rather down) tho alphabet) taking
ono letter a day, with bread, potatoes,
tea and coiTeo thrown In as staples. So
December 1 wo Inaugurated tho dietary
systom with a bill of faro conslstinc of
apples in many forms, apricots pickled,
asparagus, almond b, and the staples.
Tlio next uays menu was ueci, uceis,
beans, biscuits, buttermilk, bacon, nnd
bon-bons. Tho following day wo feasted
on chicken, codfish balls, clams, celery,
cucumbers tufty cents oaoii), crabs,
cheese, cake, crackers, crullers,
carrots, canned currants, canned
ebonies, citrons, cidel, catsup and candv.
And so it has gOlio on, Tho fifth day
would havo been a fast day had it not
been for eggs, but wo iriado an Daster
of It. Yesterday wo dined, breakfasted
nnd supped chiefly ou jellies. To-day
your kidney suggestion savos us from
starvation, whllo to-moriow ivo will
grow fat on liver, lamb, lobster, lottuco.
etc. A queer thing nboiit our now food
doparttuu Is the uiiinhor of thlnus it lias
led us to put In our mouths which wo
never thought of boforc."
