New Collecting Method

Philadelphia Record: you've made a
mistake in my BILL" said a young man ex-
citedly the other day to the proprietor of "a
prominent tailoring house.
That can't be-" asserted the tailor,
mildly.
"Oh, but it's So" exclaimed the youth in
a furry. Look here! Ten dollars too
much charged on this bill"
The proprietor compared the bill with his
books. you're right, Mr.. Blank he ad-
mitted. I'll take $40 off, and how much
did you say you wanted to pay on account
The young man grew red, coughed, and
finally produced a s. note.
That works every time" confded the
tailor to an interested bystander, after the
customer had departed. Nothing brings a
man here in such a hurry as to overcharge
him on his bill. When a customer gets a
little backward and lodges the place l send
him a bill overcharging him. He comes on
a rush to have the mistake corrected, and
a little diplomacy does the rest. Best OF all,
1t doesn't hurt his feelings, as would a visit
from a collector"
