Really Thinks a Gentleman May EngagO
In Certain X.lnes of Business.
During the period of our civil war society became utterly demoralized, and
many persons amassed fortunes by stocks
and gold speculations, and government
contracts camo to the surface by ttheir
reckless extravagance, says Ward McAllister in his wise way in the New
York World. Then camo the period of
railway speculators, many of them genuine railway robbers, as they acquired
fortune in a dishonest and reckless manner, but under pur modern leniency wo
do not care how a man acquires his fortune so long as he is clever enough to
escape the prison walls.
At present we are just coming to the
reign of the great shopkeepers. Shop-
keeping has changed so in 50 years that to
manage one of onr great dry goods, grocery or tailoring establishments requires
the ability of a general. The modern
shopman is no longer cringing and servile, but holds up his head as high as the
man who patronizes him.
In the second generation the old time
prejudice which formerly existed vanishes, and undoubtedly in a few years
the millionaire proprietors of our great
Broadway and Sixth avenue stores will
be knocking and demanding admission
to society's exclusive functions.
There is undoubtedly a set here who
might be termed reactionary who fight
against this impending change, but our
old family element, I am afraid, must
content themselves with their meetings
of Colonial Dames, Colonial Wars and
other kindred societies, and acknowledge
that "the old order changeth."
The question now arises:
Can a tradesman, be a veritable gentleman?
I reply unquestionably, yes.
The idea of what constitutes a gentleman is very varied, and a definition is
perhaps different in America from the
definition in England. In a general sense
in- this country it applies to every one
Who is not a blackguard, as one workingman will say to another, "Be a gentleman," or, "Behave yourself like a
gentleman."
But of course this is not the idea that
I propose to discuss. The'point is: Is it
possible for a man engaged in trade to
have all the instincts and feelings of a
true gentleman, or does the continual
striving after gain give a shoppy and
commercial tinge to his whole nature?
This depends npon the man himself.
In London a man in "the city" is not
usually found in the drawing rooms of
the aristocracy, the only exceptions being where a man of good family, usually a younger son, has secured a good
berth for himself, possibly with very
little to do but draw his salary, or where
a young man has inherited from his father a business which is carried on for
him by his partners, but undoubtedly a
man is a bit ashamed there of being in
trade, and the army, the navy, the
church and diplomacy are considered a
more correct career for a young nobleman or gentleman if his means will permit.
In America all this is different.
A young man on finishing his education here is generally very anxious to
get to work and find some opportunity
to commence a business career. Out
young men of family and fortune rarely
think of the army, navy and diplomacy
and still less of the church. Not that
these careers do not contain many estimable persons, but they are certainly
not regarded with as much favor as the
legal profession or as commerce, banking, engineering or mining. Take, for
instance, young men after completing
their education in England and America—they are at that period of their life
much alike—and then take them 15 yeara
later. Are the Americans any the less
true gentlemen for having spent that
time in the rush to secure fortune, or
does it blunt all their finer sensibilities?
The Duke of Argyll answered this
question conclusively! for he put all his
younger song in trade.
They are not necessarily any the lesi
true gentlemen.

Mr. Mills bas spent a considerable time in New York the past ,month
and the fruit of his labor is apparent.
In all lines the stock is complete and styles superb.   In all departments

no lowering of  qualities,  everything is first
class, everything reliable.
In the Dress Goods department this firm are selling pure wool—38 in
Serges—at 25c, yet low as is the price the quality would satisfy anyone
At 31c, 39c and oOetbe showing of Wool, and Silk and Wool Novelties
is simply bewildering, and best of all qualities are at least 25 per cent
better than the same prices secured last year.   In Pattern Novelties every price from S5 to §18. A Dress pattern can be found including many
exclusive designs.    In SILKS, 25c Surahs, Sic Jap Silks. 39c:Novelties,
rich SI, $1-25. and .$150 designs for "tony" waists, and Black Silks   in
