LURE.

is mystery of many why nine
out Of every ten grocers fail in bust
ness. Hundreds start out with well
equipped stores, with sufficient capt.
tai to purchase a stock Of goods
without going i'll debt, with fair
credit and every prospect of doing
brisk and profitable business. They
give the most scrupulous attention
to their affairs, are at their places
early in the morning where they
remain until late at night, and yet
in spite of all their eLdeayors run
behind and eventually having the
modification of seeing the sheriff
take possession of their premises
and close out their concern at sac
rifce. One cause of failure of this
kind is that of cutting prices 1t
seems to us the greatest folly in the
world for man to work hard from
morning until night, and to buy and
sell goods by the carload without
deriving cent of profit, and yet
this business is what hundreds are
doing at the present time all over
the West Because rival dealers
over the way mark their goods down
at a lower price than those at which
they are selling them, they feel that
they must meet this cut or 60 one
better, by marking their goods be-
low it, and so they pit themselves
against each other, marking their
goods lower and lower until they
often sell them at a lower figure
than they paid the wholesaler for
them, who, it may be, does business
hundreds of miles away.
Many merchants in cutting prices
do not consider what cost means.
The cost of goods is not the invoice
price of them, but it must include
the freight, the expense OF getting
it from the market into the store,
must include their store expenses,
rent, light, fuel, clerk hire, repairs,
and innumerable other things which
cost money and of which the mer
chant seldom stops to think. All of |
this represents the actuaI cost of the |
goods 10 him, and if he cannot sell
his goods at an advance upon this
cost, he is sure to run behind. and
running behind will bring him to |
disaster at an astonishingly rapid |
rate. Often retail storekeepers are
bankrupt before they know it; a
realizing sense Of their actual situa-
ton falls upon them with the sud
dennesss Of a thunder clap. There
ought to be some way of preventing
this suicidal policy of cutting prices
1t is not business sense, it is not
commercial honesty, it gives no
better satisfaction to customers, and
is often the means of defrauding
honest jobberS out of money that
should have been promptly paid
when due.-Grocers' Criterion.
