Hove You Ever FIGURED On Il?
What Does 1t Cost to Sell
a Manufactured Article.

Did you ever try to figure just what
it costs to sell an article? Take for ex-
ample PIANO. An agent must find
his customers and then 60 to them un-
til he has accomplished a sale. How
many trips must he make to do the
work? His time is worth, say $500
per day, his team and expenses $500,
putting 1t at low estimate. Suppose
he were to sell 80 pianos, one piano a
month is about the average for the Or
binary salesman or agent, but place it
at two per month, by the time he has
sold 30 pianos, he has used fifteen
months time and his expenses have
been Sl,80000 to say nothing of his liv-
ing expenses profits must be from
800 to $50 on each piano sold in order
to cover his actual expenses-this is the
old method of selling pianos.
A New Method.
On our plan of crOwding years
business into the space of two weeks,
we save to 30 purchasers the sum of
81 800 to 5000. We sold 80 pianos in
Sringfield, H., in two weeks; &c pianos
in Logansport in two weeks. We be-
lieve we will sell fully as many in

ford to come and see you 1T the prices
we are making at this sale, but if you
expect to buy a piano or organ any
time within the next two years, you can
save money by taking one day off and

The London Academy reveals a f11e
bit of pessimism in quoting from the

London Chronicle an extract which
shows that the net personality of the
late Charles Grant Allen. author,
amounted to E3,5OO, while that Of a
noted cheesemaker who died at the
same time reached f100.0S6. The Acad.
envy evidently wishes to show how
much greater is human natures love
for cheese than for literature. a fact
which perhaps cannot be gainsaid.
But after all, the scope of the cheese.
monger Is broader than that of the au-
thor. He can satisfy the appetites of
great variety Of people. from the

" Stop the Foolishness.

A wrangling and quarreling city
government is Of great disadvantage
s,nd injury to Little Falls. Most OF
the present city officials arc SD in
bued with hatred OF, other officials
that the city business ia transacted
in a reckless and unbusinesslike way.
Officials think more of splitting and
annoying each other than they do
OF benefittlng the community. Under
thoss lamentable conditions it is not
strange that Little Falls has made
little progress during the past four
years. The voters Of the city will
act wisely II they this year choose
new men for Office, especially when
such a choice will result in placing
indepel dent, honest and public
spirited men in office. Vasaly at.
tempts to convince the people that
they must take sides IN the fight I've
tween himself and Tom Martin. He
therefore declares that allcandidates
who are not in accord with him
(Vasaly) are in full sympathy with
Martin, and are running in the inter
ests Of the latter. That is far from
the truth. Consider, for instance,
OF James A. Nichols for mayor. He
IL not in any degree under the in
fluence of Alderman Martin or any
other city official. As 4 mayor he
will not he party to any combine
or faction in old city quarrels, and
will do his best to give the city an
economical and creditable admins
tration The people OF Little Falls
know him, and do not doubt his IL
tertions and determination. The
only hope Vasaly has OF defeating
him ia by creating the impression
that Nichols would he party to
continued wran.les and petty
quarrels The election of Nichols
and candidates for aldermen who
are equally independent and honest
means an end to the disgraceful and
useless jangles in our city govern
ment that have made Little Fails u
laughing stock among Minnesota
cities. The prosecution OF all ity liti-
cation can and will I've carried on as
energetically under Nichols a< mayor
