The Hardware Merchant Ito customer
just entering)-Good morning, sir.
Customer-I want one of those things
that you fasten on a door SO as to make it
shutits
H. M.-Oh, yes; an automatic door closer.
C.-That's it, and it must not be high
priced.
H. M.-Yes, sir; a cheap automatic door
closer.
C.-And not to complicated either.
H. MI understand. You want an au.
tomato door closer of simple design and
small cost.
C.-Exactly. But not one of those infer
nal things that slam the door with Il bang.
H. M.-That would be a nuisance, of
course. What you want is an automatic
door closer of simple design, small cost and
with an easy spring.
C.-That's right. But don't want it to
close the door too slowly either.
H. Mn other words, you require some
thing faster than cold molasses. Briefly,
what you are looking for is an automatic
door closer of simple design and small cost,
that is neither too slow nor too fast.
C.-Tbat's all right. And besides it
mustn't be like some l have seen, where a
man needs the strength of an OK to open the
door.
II. M.-Tery well. Now, let's understand
each other. You want to buy an automatic
door closer, simple, cheap, neither too slow
nor too fast and easily opcrat ed
C.-Correct. Show me one.
H. Nj m very sorry, sir, but L do not
deal in automatic door closers.-Truth.
