Sullivan ! Figures do not always indicate the price of goods sold by mail order houses as scheduled in their price lists, as the catalogue bouses are careful not to mention the ''extra** cost inci dental to placing tbe order and the de livery of the article ordered. The consumer is governed by the low catalogue price lather than the delivery cost, tbe latter means, of course, being tbe correct way of deter mining the cost of tbe article. Conaumer Buys Costly Saw. As an example 1 reproduce herewith a conversation which recently took place In a western town when a con sumer entered tbe local store and In quired the price of a saw. Tbe price of the saw was $2. the merchant told him. "Great guns!" declared the consum er. “1 can get tbe same article from a catalogue house for $1.50.’* "1 can’t buy it for that price.” said the merchant, "but I will give it to you on tbe same terms as tbe mail order house, just the salue.” "All right.” replied tbe consumer. “You can w rap it up and charge it me. ami w hen I settle In the fall 1 will pay for It.** M Hand Over the Cash." "Oh. no. yuy don’t.” said the dealer. “We are doing business on the same terms as you do business w ith tbe mail order house—no charge accounts. Hand over the cash, please.” The consumer banded over $1.50. “Now.’’ said tbe merchant. "5 cents for the money order and 2 ceuta for postage." “Wbat tbe”— “Rut you must send a letter and a money order to the catalogue house Id order to get tbe saw. you know.” Tbe <-onsuuier. although desiring to bolt, kept bravely to bis agreement and paid tbe 7 cents. “Now tbe express charges. 45 cents. If you please.” “Well, by gracious.'" be said and gamely paid it. with tbe remark. "Now that I have met all of your demands band me over my saw ” Man Mad* Miataka. “Hand you tbe aaw.! Why. mao. where do you think you are? Just rec ollect that you are Id Texas and I am located In Chicago. You Wilt have to wait r.bout fifteen days for me to make tbe delivery." Aud. backing up bis words with actions, be pocketed the money, pot tbe aaw back on tbe shell and smilingly turned to wait on tbe next customer. Tbe consumer pondered, and after be got tbroogb with bis deductions be said: “Tbe saw will cost me $2.03 That Is 3 cents more than 1 could have bought It for In tbe first place, and I am deprived of its use for fifteen days besides. No more mall order bouse for me!” Incident Werthy ef Emulatien. Tbe incident related above is one which both tba merchant and the con sumer may read with profit and If more of tbe merchants adopted tbe same tactics as did tbe Texas mer chant they would have fewer mail or der buyers among those w ho should be their customers. And there is much more to this question tlu^i price and delivery; there ore often dissatisfaction and inferior and damaged goods to contend with. In the case of goods being damaged en route tbe buyer*lias either the prospect of a lawsuit with tbe railroad com pany or a correspondence fight w-lth the catalogue bouse, neither of which is very inviting. Not Infrequently does the buyer., rather iban to go to all tbe expense and trouble incidental to the exchange of the article, a'low himself to be 1m posed h;*od by accepting the inferior snd often valueless article, an article wbicb be is actually ashamed to owh or use. V The Only Safe Way. There «*au be but one right way to buy goods, and that is to have tbe go-sis In view of tbe purchaser. Buy ing from a picture is a reckless form of gambling in which the advantage is 'Mitirely with the seller. He knows what yOUr money Is You do not know wh: t his goods are Hence it Is heads bo ’vlns and tails you lose. That the catalogue bouse always gets • the better of tbe bargain is evidenced by the fact that annually, the large | mail order bouses declare dividends the enormity of which appalls and be wilder-, the conception of ordinary In-, dlvldunts. who count their profits and savings In pennies rather than In mil- 1 lions. There is bat one right way to buy goods, and that way la to see wbat you buy befora.you pay for It PAGESEVEN * « ^ - : •o Th« Ladies In this ■ own arc Simply Going Wild oVvr Harmony Hair lkv.ii!i!i>t.
