"a" and 'EB" are two dry goods
merchants in Salina, and both "a"
and "B" buy gOOdsWhich cost them
$1.OO (and very often A buys for a
little less than b. A marks his
goods $1.10$ B is better known than
A because he is a larger man and
does more blowing and he marks
his goods $50. The public, who
arenOt so easily gulled as some peO-
pie imagine, easily seethe palpable
difference between AS and B'S pri-
ces, and hence B says to the public:
"YOu have gone back on me, but if
you come again unto me III shave a
little off my abnormal profits" or in
other words, you can have 20 per
cent off. The question to be decided
is, whether AS goods at regular
prices or BIS with 20 per cent off are
the cheaper. McHenry & Co. pres
ent the whole thing in a nutshell.
AS goods are marked in plain
figures, nets you $1.1O.
BIS goods are marked in hierOgly
phics $1.5O; with twenty per centOff
nets you $l.2O.

scored the largest advance OF the day. There
was no development on property except That IN
