He Got His Customer.

The following story is told of an en-
terprisihg New York jobber The
merchant in question, having heard of
the arrival of country trader who
was known to be large purchaser and
of unquestionable credit, was resolved
to get him to visit his esta blishment,
and, once there, he felt sure he could
secureshim as a customer He accord
ingly sent out one of his drummers, of
whom he had quite number, adapted
to every taste and disposition. The
| one sent, however, returned without
success. No. . was dispatched, with
no better result, and again No. 3, and
so on until all had gone and come back
without their man. The mer chant
now determined to 60 himself, and find
ing that brandy and water and free
tickets to the theatre were of no avail,
for the country trader did not take one
| or 90 to the other, he was reduced to
the necessity OF employing ruSe, which
as the sequel shows, was simple as well
as effectual. On taking his departure
after q pleasant interview the merch-
ant took care to commit the "mistake"
of taking the traders hat instead of
his own. Next morning, as was ex-
pected the merchant received prompt
visit at his store from the country trad :
er, who came to look up the hat which
he supposed had been hurridly exchang-
ed. This was what the merchant
wanted. and through this means sold
good bill of goods and secured regu
lar customer.
