We sold moro goods, according to these re-
turns. IN one month, than one :9f the houses
did Tor the whole year; more In six weeks than
another did for tha yenr; more in two months
than another did for the timei returned for,
and more in ak months than, the whole added
together 80 much for aniounts; now let us
get an approximate idea Of per centaxe: A
house wliieh sells s2l 900 per annum, with an
expense OF 1000, pays 33 per cent for selling
the goods, or has to get 9S per cent: profit, to
get cost for their goods; house that sells
$95, 900 per annuro, iand whose expenses for
conducting buainess ia $11, 900, has to add
nearly 3s per cent. on the cost Of its goods. to
s4s. 600 for eight months, se5, 900 for twelve
months, (aVeragtng.) at an expense Of 1000,
would have to add on to their goods full 40 per
cent. to get cost, for them. Now, we return
$!07, ,O0O, and disburse expenses about
$l7, goo, or 4-10per cent. EXPENSE for selling
the goods. It is easy TO see that an business
conducted on . 10 per cent. basis for expenses,
1whioh y entirely too high,) can afford to sell
to conduct; 9nd as to tie business costing 9S
per cent, the comparison is unnecessary By
these figures, which any reader can apply, il
Sna, WI, be seen Why We sell goods cheaper. and
desire to add, that our business arrangements
are With men OF great integrity, and among
th9 hnest business men OF the country. It

this is an unusual style Of advertising9auch
We intend it to be, for we have exhausted our
