A Customer Nailed for Life.

The following is related Of Abbott
Lawrence, the Boston merchant: a
country trader bought few yards Of
cloth at ten dollars per yard at his
store. On measuring the goods at
home they ran short quarter OF a
yard. The trader was almost afraid to
speak of SO small matter to SO great
merchant On his next visit to Mr..
Lawrence's establishment, however,
he plucked up courage enough to say:
'.Mr. Lawrence, when was here afew
months ago bought q few yards OF
broadcloth.'' '.Yes, at ten dollars per
yard According to my measure
ment it fell short quarter" Fell
short a quarterP That will never do;
1t should have overrun 9 quarter.
Turning to his book-keeper.- he said:
.sCredit this man with half q yard OF
our best broadcloth.' That customer
was nailed for life. Dry Goods chros-
tcle.
