A continuation of our articles on the
reason why some people are poor and
have hard time, and how they can
save money and become better OIL.
The easiest money made is in buying.
We know of class of people, and they
are many, who when they are asked
price for anything will make and Of
fer much lower than the price asked,
and think by so doing they are saving
money. They don't know the value of
the goods they propose buying.
Whether the price they offer is more
or less than they are worthg To offset
this class Is a class of tradesmen who
always ask two or three times more
than value for their wares, and If they
only get half or one-third asked, make
a good profit. Now these classes OF
tradesmen and people are well match
ed, but it does great injury to a large
class of people who are just the reverse
Those that want bargain but will not
chaff and jew to get it, but wish the
price named to be the lowest price that
will buy the goods and will be bar
gain. The best way to find out how to
get a bargain is to know the value Of
the goods wanted and their lowest
market price, but as most people do
not have the facilities for such infor-
nation the next best thing is to find
tlll,. 1goI III
the class of goods they advertise, and
at he prices named, (but BEWARE OF
the stores that are Just out of the bar
gains they advertise as it is a scheme
to get customers in and sell them
something else), as the reliable stores
don't advertise goods at prices they do
not intend to sell at, but on the con-
trary, have the goods at the prices, eX-
cept in some cases the demand is
greater than they anticipate, but soon
inform their customers of this fact,
and either offer a better bargain or
something equally as good. We know
it is hard for every one to know all
the things necessary to outwit the
sharper, who takes advantage of the
lack of knowledge to increase his
gains, but ordinary observation and
sturdy will post anyone so they can
know a bargain when offered.
We try to fill the above indications
for a reliable Bargain Store, to give
the create st values the market affords,
give just what we advertise and adver-
tlse Just what we have When we
say we are selling an article at so
