Anderson Brothers' store on the corner of Division . and Princess streets is a busy looking place from the outside, but one cannot nearly appreciate -the activity and | amount of business carried on by this | Arm until he steps inside its idoors, Food for everything and for chased within, and the arrangement, quality and price of the goods as- sure oné of quick service and satis faction, No miniature bureau of informa- tion is needed at the enrance because of the system used by this firm. Every commodity, whether on the counters, on the shelves or hanging on the walls, is graded as to pame, quality and price. The customer may see the article for which he is looking at once and on it is the price tag. For in- stance, a customer may be in search of bananas, Under the old-fashioned system there ig a bunch hanging in the centre of the floor space where everyone knocks against it. All the bananas in this bunch are of the same price and the customer must take the good with the bad, the large with the small, Under Anderson bunch are separated and placed in Separate containers according to size and quality, with prices to match. The custgrier gets what he pays for. Within the last few weeks Ander- | son Brothers have taken a new de- | parture in their trade by establish | ing a fruit department. In front of | the store they have a concrete space {of six or seven hundred square feet, and the greater part of this has been reserved for the display of fruit, { Like all other goods this fruit is ar- ranged in order of size, quality and price. Friday morning the display in front of the store was enough to tempt any buyer, and the prices were right. The heads of the firm claim that they have saved the fruit-buyers in Kingston a lot of money this year. The prices of fruit, peaches for in- stance, have been rather high until the present time. Anderson Brothers, after a study of local conditions, be- lieved that, by buying their fruit in carload lots, and direct from the growers, they could sell at a very much lower price than that prevail- ing, and in this manner handle large quantities of fruit and save money for themselves and for the buying public. Their plan has succeeded be- yond expectations and they now have immense quantities of fruit of all kinds clearing each day. utilized for an arrangement of all the different needs of the housewife for the preserving and pickling season. In order of quality and price they have arranged cucumbers, pickling onions, red peppers, celery, and all the small vegetables and fruits for canning against the winter months. The grocery department is the same orderly arrangement of goods which may be found all through the |'establishment, Clerk and customer alike may see at a glance what is on the shelves, thus facilitating the busi- ness of serving and saving time and trouble' both ways. The retail meat department is a hive of activity and it is a marvel how all the customers are served so gpeedily without con- fusion. Through doors opening off this large sales room one enters the refrigerators, each set aside for some particular line of goods, and all cool- ed by a central condenser, without the use of ice. This saves not only space, for the pipes occupy space which could not be used, but time, labour and expense, No storeroom is needed for ice, the expense and trouble of handling it is done away with, and the accompanying slush and dirt are avoided. In some re- [frigerators are whole carcasses of beef, in others fowl, butter, cooked meats, lard, and all the perishable goods handled by the firm, with all arranged within easy access of the central sales room. Several rooms are set aside for the curing and cooking of meats. In one all the piokled meats are handled. An other is equipped with cutters and large steam boilers for the chopping up and cooking of hams and various meats. A large percentage of the cooked meats handled by the firm are put up by them under their own methods and supervision, The smok- ing room, for the curing, is behind all these and has a large capacity, All these rooms have concrete floors and cleanliness and sanitary methods are the rule throughout. On the premises are several large store-rooms contadming stocks of goods which are not perishable, and within 'easy access of these is the clearing room for the wholesale busi- ness. Another room next door takes in all the goods bought and keeps a record of them. Back of the main store are the stables and garages for livery service. This service is now all handled from the back of the store and is supervised in such a manner that all parcels may be traced in case of error. The front of the store is not interfered with at all in the pro- cess of sending out orders for de- livery. 3 A staff of about thirty is constantly employed at Anderson Brothers, Of these three are constantly kept busy answering the telephone and taking orders by that route. During the busy hours of the day no less than six are detailed to the outside fruit stand, in order that customers may receive prompt and efficlent service. That is the keynote of the whole busi- ness, and the reason why Anderson Brothers are enjoying success. A system gives service to the people, and in serving the people the firm is | serving itself.

WORLD BROTHERHOOD A Gathering of Leaders From Many Lands. The second World Brotherhood congress which opens at Washington on Oct. 9th, will consider matters vi- tally affecting the people in many lands. The widespread interest in this movement will make it quite certain that Canada generally and the Moth- er Country will find it hard to exceed the representation that is being sent forward by the United States and such widely differing countries as Egypt, France, Turkey and Japan. Last year over twenty-two countries were represented at the first congress held in London, England. Among those who will attend this year's congress are Rev. 8. W, Hughes, of Westbourne Park Baptist church, England, Dr. John Timothy Stone, Chicago, Brig.-Gen. Davey C.M.G., principal chaplain to His Majesty's forces. Rev. R. M. Gautrey, in charge of the Methodist Mission at East Ham, Rev. Hodson Smith, principal of the English National Children's Lomes and orphanages, etc. The dele- gates from Canada and the United States comprise many of the leading thinkers and speakers of the day. In Canada the Congress arrangements are in charge of Thos. Howell, 405 Kent Building, Toronto. There is lit- tle doubt that the second World Bro- | cess from every point of view.
