SYS “IT’S A BARGAIN FOR YOU ’Tis a fine thing to, be able to look a man in the eye when he says to you: “It’s a bar- gain, and we stand back of it with our guar- antee.”” . One often reads this promise in mail order literature. particular bit of copy. With the compiler of the mail order catalog, ’tis all in the day’s... work. With the man who, says it to*your. face, it means something, for he knows that if he doesn’t make good you’ll come back, and he knows that if he:does make: good you're most likely to come back, and ’tis the’ lat-'~. ter contingency that he’s counting on. For the man who does business with you, face to face, has to rely upon come back or= ders and: he needs your good-will, because ® you’re his advertiser and his mail order cata- ‘log. If you go home and say: “By yimminy that coulter I got from Jones is all right, all right,” then your neighbor thinks of. Jones the next time he comes to town, figuring‘on a hit of an electric washer for the missus. But if you say: “Be dad, that Jones feller, now, ain’t he the skinner,” Jones ‘knows he can never expect to repair the damage that’s done him, and bein’ as Jones is in business here for life, he isn’t likely to give you ‘a chance to say bad things of him if he can help it. That’s the whole idea of trading at home. You see the article, you see the man who stands behind it; you know, most likely the next time you come to town you'll see him again, and he knows it too. ’Tis an easy thing to make long distance conversation and to sit beside a mahogany top desk, drawing on a 25-cent perfecto and dictate pretty prom- ises. ’Tis another thing quite to sit right here under the gun and stare a man.in the eye and make promises and know by all that’s holy that you’ve got to make good those promises. One hates like thunder to sell a neighbor a blind horse, for. he knows that sooner or later Mr. Naybur will get-hep. another matter to pass off a bad one on a BUSINESS TRAINING "Tis seldom that one.ever. gets * a glimpse of the boy or girl who wrote the. *Tis quite ° ‘band of roving horse traders who probably give you worse than they get. The home business man is in the same position that you are when a neighbor comes to you and wants a gentle, lady-broke driver for ‘the -family.: You are tot liable to sell him a skit- tish bag of bones that’s going to kick the ‘whole family into: kingdom come, for, like as not, you have an‘idea that Mr. Naybur may want a horse again some time, and a fair profit on. two. good horses usually is bigger and more satisfactory generally than an unfair profit on one bad one. When a ‘man’s selling merchandise as a business, the first thing he does or seeks to do is to build up good will and a reputa- tion for honesty and fair-dealing. The man who accomplishes these results stays in bus- iness. That is why the men whose busi- “ness is advertised in these columns are here; that’s why they were here last year, and year before: last. With some’ of them your grandaddy traded when he came out here in a prairie schooner; with some of their grand- children you grandchildren will be. trading a long time hence. A square deal with the home merchant is a mere matter of ordinary business good sense. He knows that, even were he so in- clined—and: we’re proud to believe that we haven’t any of that brand in business in Bis- marck—he couldn’t hook you today and ex- spect to catch your neighbor tomorrow. And when he says “bring it back if it-isn’t satis- factory,” he means that, for he can much better afford to take a\loss on you than to have you dissatisfied. . The biggest capital the average merchant \has is his good will. Without good will, with- out a reputation for playing fair and doing business on the square, without a belief on the part of his community that he’s honest adn sincere and a man who wants to see his* neighbors do well, the goods on his shelf wouldn’t be worth to him 75 cents on the dol- lar on the purchase price. Think it over, and see if it isn’t pretty sound gospel. IRON and JUNK Western Sales Co.
