The most inconsistent man we know
of is the man who cusses the trusts and
at the same time buyes his goods of a
catalogue house. OF all the trusts that
injure the ordinary merchants we can
imagine none worse than the catalogue
trust with the cheap shoddy goods which
it palms off upon those persons who are
eternally looking for something for
nothing and then cuss their luck because
they have been swindled. .-Ex.
