( ASM AMI ChEHlT
The wholesaler in buying from the
lunufacturor. if it is within he re
sources, takes advantage of discounts
for cash or of payment inside of &
specified date. The thrifty retailer,
when he purchases from a wholesale
house, watches his bills und gets the
benefit of discounts. Hut when the
retailer comes to puss his wares
long to the ultimate consumer he has
jone price only, whether the customer
pays cash or takes his commodities
un credit. The injustice of this prac
tice ls evident on its face. The cash
customer suppiiuH liquid cupltal for
the grocer, merchant butcher, tailor,
tc. and lt penalized indirectly by
making good the losses lncurre<l in
extension Of credit to persons who
either cannot or will not pay, or the
painfully slow about lt.
The credit system ls the bane of
business life and in many instance?
ia the demoralization of the patron.
Of course it cannot be wholly abolish
ed. To do that would impose hard
ship upon innumerable worthy folk.
Rut the wonder is that dealers do not
ndertnke to minimi/..- it instead of
employing devices to expand and en
courage lt. They make a victim of
the cash customer. The Just method
would be to allow discount for cash,
fixing prices accordingly and with
the necessary respect to credit allow
ances. If there was a shading in
prices for cash the Immediate result
would bo to discourage unnecessary
charge accounts and bring In money
more promptly. As lt is the system
which permits one customer to run
tip an enormous bill, which may or
may not be paid eventually, while
charging exactly the same figure;
over the counter for cash, to the man
or woman who pays on the spot with
out demur, evasion or delay, ls not de
fensible. No merchant will pay aa
much In cash for the aame gooda aa
ls demanded of n?s neighbor who re
quires time to meet his obligations.
Discounts are followed with vigilance
and- properly , so. Why, . therefore,
should the conanmer who paya cash
not be treated with equal considera
tion?

Tin- lirst "flower day" ever attempt. ?
cd by the Anderson chamber <>f cnn -1
moree was held yesterday and an
other Kiiveeatt "as registered up for
the secretary nf Hie chamber. Live
ly Interest hud l>een manifested In
lire evenl for the last several days '
ami those win* have been agitating the I
maller Huid last night Unit th?'y were '
? well pleased.
(tue of UK- principal features ot"
tl*- program was th? award of the
handsome brass vase, offered for the ?
hoBl general collection of Howers sent
in and placed on exhibit ai the isham
he r of commerce. TII?H prize was won
hy Mrs. Janies Marlin, while the ex
hibit of .Miss Annie Wakefield nf Hie
county was a close s ?cond in the :
.opinion of Die judges. The vase was
awarded to Mrs. Martin.
All told there were probably 2tnt
people to atteud the event and it Is
Hie general opinion that this affair
? will result, in the organisation of a
: permanent dower association to hold
? annual (lower shows in Anderson.
The addresses heard al the theatre
' were line, the instructors from Clem
son college making a great Impres
] sion, while ?-very one of the ladles
( present enjoyed Hu; splendid reel of
pictures .'The Flower Parade." The
day wuu a success and lt < hoped that
iliis may result in a peiinanent or
ganization nf some kind to promote
the growing of Bowers in Anderson
county.
MEDICAL SGHUOL DIB
NOT WANT SUICIDE
DECLINED THE OFFER OF
THE BODY
WAS BURIED HERE
Following Medica] College's Re
fusal To Take Body of Dead
Man, It Was Buried
A letter was received yeaerday
by O. F. Tolly ft Son, undertakers,
trom the Atlanta Medical College in
which the authorities of that Institu
tion advised that they were furnished
at all times with dissecting material by
the anatomical board of the state of
Georgia and for that reason could
/not use the body of a man who had
committed suicide here. Before A. S.
Walden killed himself in an Anderson
hotel Thursdny, he left a note in
which he . aid thai he wanted his body
sent to A.lanta for uso in the Atlanta
Medical college, ile was taken from ?
the hotel to the undertaking parlors!
?Atlanta, after which he was burled!
lin tho potter's field at the county j
poor (arm.
This brings to a conclusion a case
of considerable local Interest. There
were a number of features connected
with the case which Anderson people
could hardily understand and some
things in connection with the man
taking his life will never he known,
.lust why he came to Anderson for
this purpose when he could have ac
complished lt in Greenville ls hard to
see into and why he waited until
Thursday night to accomplish his pur
pose when it could have been done
Wednesday night In accordance with
bis original plans is also hard to un
derstand.
