Business Enterprise Rewarded.

1.-THE trouble with US" said the drug
gist thoughtfully. "is that we don't Keep
open late enough. There Is lots OF late
business at a drug store. and man
will patronize that store in the day time
that he is obliged 10 patronize at night.
1t would pay us to keep open later and
not rely so much on the night bell.
The mariner was little doubtful and
called attention to the extra expense for
gas and a clerk. but he finally gave in.
the main argument being that the late
sales would certainly pay the extra ex-
pense. and that the number Of patrons
secured would result IN profit
Both stayed up the first night, one
enthusiastic and the other skeptical. one
explained that. OF course, they couldn't
expect customer TO drop In the first
thing. and the other remarked that ne
would be surprised II they sold enough
in three nights to pay for the gas burned
by one jet in half an hour.
They watched the people who occa-
eiOnally passed the store, and the part
ner shrugged his shoulders and said
"See?" every time a man went by.
1t was pretty nearly time to close up
when a boy came in and bought ten
cent package Of cigarettes The druggist
would nave enjoyed throwing tHe pOS
out, as he heard his partner laugh. but
he RETAINED. II was nearly midnight
and the extra two hours they had re-
manned open had resulted in profit OF
a cent or a cent and half.
Then a man came hurrying along the
street He saw the light In the window
and made a bee line for the store.
Here he comes" exclaimed the drug
gist joyfully. Some one sick, sure.
tell you We ought to keep open for hui
manity's sake If not for profit.
"Georget I was afraid I wouldn't find
you Open" exclaimed the man as he en-
tered.
1--WE intend 10 remain open till u or
1870 after this" explained the druggist
as he went around behind the counter.
cts a good thing. a good thing" said
the man approvingly. zone can never
tell when he may need something from
a drug store. Give me three two-cent
stamps. please"
Not word was said as they closed and
locked the doors. The druggist did not
feel like saying anything. and the part
ner thought it dangerous. And the next
night they closed between and TO- as
they had formerly done.-Chicago Daily
