It was $3.18. “Good gracious,” said the man. “I can get the same thing from a mail order house for $2. “That's less than it costs me,” said the dealer, “but I'll sell it on the same terms as the mail order house just the same.” “All right,” said the customer. ‘‘You can send it along and charge it to my account.” *“Not on vour life,”” replied the dealer. *No charge accounts, you can’t do business with the mail order houses that way. Fork over the cash. Now two cents for the postage and five cents for the money order.” The customer, inwardly raving, kept his agreement and paid the seven cents. “Now 35 cents ex- pressage.” ‘“Well I'll be ——" he said, but paid it, saying, “Now give it to me and I'll take it home and be done with this foolery.” “Hand it to you? Where do you think you are. You're not in the home town of the mail order house, and you'll have to wait a week.” Whereupon he placed the article on the shelf and put the momey in the cash drawer. *“That makes $3.24, he said. It has cost you six cents more and taken you a week longer to get it then if you had paid my price in the first place.” The Quality of Merchandise we feature—''The Happy Home Brands"—and the prices we give, 18 proof thatswe are cooperating with the community in spending their money at home. | well.
