another did for tho year; moro in two months
than another did for ' the timo returned for.
and moro in six months than tho whole added
together. Bo much for amounts; now lot us
get an approximate idea ot per oentaee: A
ouse which Bolla $31,000 per anncm, with au
expenso of ft7,CO0, pays 83 per oent. for selling
the Recd J, or bas to got 33 por cont, profit, to
got cost for their goods; a homo that sells
(35,000 per annum, and whose expenses for
conducting buaincaa is $11,000, has to add
nearly 83 percent, on the cost of its goods, to
Rot coat for them. The house that would sell
$45,000 for oight months, $05,000 for . twelvo
mouths, (averaging,) at an ezpouBO of $14,000,
would li a vu lo add on to their gooda full 20 per
cent, to get coat for them. Now, we return
$187,000, and disburso as expenses, about
$17,000, or 0 1-10 per cent. expenssB for selling
the goode. It ia oasy to soo that any busineas
conducted on a 10 percent, basie for expenses,
j (which is entirely too high,) can aflora to sell
goods far below a business costing 20 percent,
to conduct; and as to the bnsinees oosting 33

tboso figures, which any reader can apply, it
will be seen why wo Bell gooda cheaper, and
how we can do it. Besides these proofs, we
dosire to add, that our businesa arrangements

this is an unusual stylo of advertising-such
