WORTH IN EVERY transaction we expect to get our money's worth. When we buy merchandise from our local storekeepers wo examine everything with the utmost care, we test for strength and look for quality'. We discuss with the merchant the desirability and value of everything and after we shall have decided that we will effect a purchase we are convinced that we have obtained full value and that wo can depend on our purchase as being what we want. Then, again, if for any reason we havo reason to be dissatisfied with that which we have bought wo can talk it over with our merchant and any discrepancy will be readily adjusted. This is the principle of all good business. The buyer meets the seller faca to face and examines tho gooda before closing the deal. The seiier ia responsible for his representations and the buyer can always find him and adjust any differences which may occur. On the other hand there is the mall order method. We receive a book from the mail order house, illustrated with expensive pictures of various articles. The descriptions of these articles are always optimistic and gloriously pleasing. Our minds are Impressed by the charm ing wording of the descriptions and the selection of adjectives creates In our minds a desire to possess these wonderful things. All sorts of promises are made In tho book, or catalog. We will be accorded the greatest possible consideration, we will be allowed all kinds, ot privileges ; we can return tho goods at the expense of the house If not sat. iafactory; shipments'will be made with promptness and despatch; any dam ages in shipping will be adjusted at once; "Our Mr. So-and-So will give your j orders his personal attention," etc. Wa are flattered and cajoled by the clever wording of the catalogue and the statements made In the "fake" personal tetters sent to follow up the cata logue. Wo are touched In that tiny spot of vanity which, though small, seems to be everywhere and to respond to the slightest touch.* We are allured by the prospect of obtaining auch magnificent and deslr- | able articles at such remarkably low (?) prices and we ore flattered by the j . statement V-.Jt Mr. So-and-So will give our ordar personal attention. We begin to believe ourselves to be "some punktns** and we are Inclined I to swell up and look askance at our leos fortunate townsmen who have not | been singled out for such distinction as a lottor, signed tn person by Mr. So-and-So, Therefore, we decide that we will send an order tor something. We for-1 ? get that we can go Into the store of our own local So-and-So, whom we know | 1 and to whom we are perhaps responsible for past favors. But it is easy to j forget all this In the happiness and exultation Of bavins bees singled out by the great mall order ''boss", as ? desirable person with whom to do business. 80 WE SEND AN ORDER, CASH WITH IT, OF COURSE. Then we walt for the article tn come. Moro walting. Then we write to | the mall order "boss." We get a succession of form letters In reply, but no merchandise. We waste a lot of time and patience and postage stamps and stationery. Finally the shipment arrives. T? A. . We are astounded. This hardly looks like ^fce article we expected. .Bo we write again. Then follows moro correspondence. We sro told to ?sr lue the article again thoroughly and compare the description -rr'th lt- We j do so. _ Yes, the technical description ls the same. BUT THE CLEVER STYLE I IN WHICH IT IS WRITTEN HAS DELIBERATELY MISLED US. Tho Illus-1 t ration has lied to us deliberately,. because tho picture was toned np and exaggerated for the sole purpose of misleading us. We are stung. Wc? could have gotten a far better value from our local storekeeper for the money. The lying letters wa received from Mr. So-and-So were merely printed form letters and wera probably never seen by tho alleged signer, who la In Europe spending th? dotL.7* which we, and other similar | dupes, have sent him. Bah! Why will be persist ta such fooUshnessT Our common sense should tell ns better. But no, probably we wHI do- the same thins over aga lu when we get the same sort of flattering and lying dope from another ? mau order house that has bought a Hat of names, containing oars, from the | house which stung ns. YES, THEY WILL, PASS OUR NAMES ALONG, ONE TO THE OTHER WE I LAVE PLACED OURSELVES ON RECORD AS "BEING "EASY MARKS." In th? meant) m a we may so to oar local dealer and buy the article we really need.
