We propose in a series ofar-
ticles, which shall be as short
as we can make them, to show
the folly of anybody buying
anything linen or that looks
like linen anywhere in Philadel-
phia, without first finding out
the state of the market where
the bulk Of the linen trade is
done.
We have often told of the
share of the linen trade of tie
United States that is under this
roof, III per cent. We should
like to know what share Of the
ira lc of the city is here. We
guess: half of it. Nobody
knows.
The fact that we sell one
fortieth Of all the pure linen
that comes to the country
proves, and nobody doubts,
that the bulk of the local trade
is here. Why is it here? Thas
is the question We are going
to answer in several ways.
Because we buy Of the max
ers. That's one answer.
A linen making Scotchman
from Perth said No wonder
you have the trade: you are
selling as low as the rest Of
them buy; and you can; You
are the only one who buys Of
the maker"
Now that lincn-maker from
Perth would rather sell to a
hundred merchants than one.
But he can't afford to fuss with
pickaninny orders. The little
buyers have 50. to club togcth-
er. The club has got to be
paid for. The little buyers
have got to pay for it. That's
the way the linen-importcr and
wholesale dealer comes in.
He is the club, the Scctchman
sells to him, and he to the little
buyers. Between the two
the prices so up.
We are a club of another
sort. We have got to be paid
for too. But who are the
clubbers? How much have
they got to pay? We gather
yourwants together beforehand
when our linen buyer goes
abroad. He goes to every I'M
portant maker in every linen
country of Europe. He buys
and skips, and skips and buys.
He's a Judge of linens, He's
a judge of m~oney's-worth. We
venture to say we pick our lin
ems and buy about as close as
anybody. Who gets the bene-
fit? Who is it pays for the club?
Let the bulk of our dealing
answer. Halfo of the trade of
the city doesn't come to one
place by mistake. We gather
as well as we can, and sell as
low as we can.
1t wouldn't be fair to say
that we sell to you by the yard,
by the table-cloth, napkin, tow
el, sheet, by the what not, as
low as wholesale importers sell
to merchants. We sell as low
as we can; and that appears to
be low enough to draw about
half the trade Of the city.
You are the judges of how
we gather our linens and how
we sell them. Your little bug
ings are done wherever you
happen to be. But, when the
amount is enough to justify
carefulness, you know and we
know where you go.
We spoke of buying in Eu-
rope. We also buy in New
York. One of the freaks OF
merchandise is to get into in
competent hands. The ups
and downs of trade, especially
speculative trade, result in fire.
quent loser, We buy in Eu-
rope as if we couldn't get to
New York; but we watch New
York as if there were no cable
or ships to Europe. We often
buyin New Yorka as We couldn't
buy in Europe; bat give US the
