1t doesn't pay to continually talk
about below cost articles. People ace
reasonable and sensible. They don't
want business man to lose money
on what they have bought. They
don't want to take advantage of the
misfortune of the man who has been
very foolish in his buying. They
want to pay a reasonable price for the
right kind of goods. They know that,
usually, even if they get an article be-
low cost, they will later on have to
pay the loss of the merchant in I'M
reasonable profits on something else.
A man with reasonable prices to start
with and reasonable reasons for sell
ing goods will win out every time over
the man who is constantly talking be-
low cost articles and trying to con-
vince the people that he is doing what
is really not doing. People like to
deal with an honest man. When a
man talks about selling goods below
cost ten months in the year, they
know he is dishonest either in buving
Of the goods or in telling about what
he is doing.

silver is going. Many houses which
had contracted for machinery or other
articles at an exchange % points lower
than the present rate will lose money
in complying. Business men feel that
1t is only question OF time when the
country will go on a gold basis No
importer can make calculations regard
