After six years of banking, Mr.. Kahn became
the general manager and credit of a
utacturing concern in Cleveland, Ohio. In this
field of credits he again distinguished himself by
thorough methods, and the greatest total loss ever
suffered by his concern in one season amounted to
only 5000.
Having established reputation a of detail
and organization par excellence he received call from
the largest mail-order house the city of Chicago
whose business was making strides at such
precedented rate to require the greatest skill and
talent IN organizing the enormous system and detail
peculiar to the business.
At this point the subject of this sketch took hold of
the organization of this large maiorder concern

FOREWORD

The cash Buyers Union.
of Chicago, Illinois, was es-
tablished in 1884, over 20
years ago, and at first con-
fined itself TO the sale OF
a few specialties, such as
sewing machines, bicycle.
vehicles and harness, ant
pianos and organs.
Only during the last few
years has IT, under new and
progressive management, sue
cessfully extended its opera
tiOns to a complete line

Disc, TO be sold direct to
the consumer by mail through
the medium of catalogues.
The Cash Buyers Union
is known as one of the
largest mail-Order houses Of
the country. 1t has a large
clientele of satisfied customers
in every part of the world,
and receives daily scores OF
voluntary testimonials ex-
pressing satisfaction with the
excellent quality and the
low price of the goods fur
nished, as well as the prompt
and courteous attention 70

Union of Chicago, of the oldest and best known
mail-order houses of the country, which he reor-
ganized the cooperative PLAN the story and work
ings of which is published in full in the following
pages The stupendous enterprise of telling, in
six pages of valuable space IN this paper the story
of his business, something done before By
any institution, stamps this undertaking as unique
in its ideas and worthy of the notice of ever
intelligent To the seeker after success il
conveys the moral of encouragement, and what
gigantic things may be accomplished by intelligen-
initiative and everlastingly keeping at it.

ly occurs that really idea is born and
brought to successful conclusion All seem to follow
the beaten path with the signing regret that all the
remains.
1t has been reserved for young Western of
the true Chicago type to organize, establish and
bring to successful point mammoth organization,
having for its basis a idea which bids fair to
become epoch-making in the commercial history of
the country.
Have you heard of cooperation? Do you know
what it industrial and commercial factor?

what it means as an industrial
How many Americans know
that England has upwards
of 1000 cooperative So
cieties, with a total trade of
$500, ooo,o 900? How many
Americans know that the
great Cooperative Whole
sale Society of Manchester,
England, started 40 years ago
with a capital of $4,000
and a business of S25o,ooo
the first year, now has a
capital of SI8,ooo,ooo and
does an annual business of
nearly SIoo, 900, 900? That
this one institution alone
owns eight steamships for
its own carrying business,
and operates a banking de-
partment with a turnover
of over $4,000 900 a year?
And all this done in what
we call ''slow old Eng
land
Of course you have heard
of the enormous business
done entirely by mail
through the medium of
catalogues by Chicago houses.
Possibly you know that
one institution, started less
than ten years ago with
a capital of SI5o,ooo and
a business of less than
100000, has grown into a
trade of S35, 900 an
nually, and divides among
its partners, the enormous
sum of over 100000
annually in dividends, or
lust about thirteen times
the original investment re-
turned each and every
year to its fortunate part
ners.
Now take the cooperative
principle with its record of
SIoo, 900, 900 business for
one concern, wed it to the
mail order idea with its
record of nearly S4o,ooo,ooo
done by one concern, and
apply the whole to a terri
tory comprising 8o,ooo,ooo
people, to say nothing of
the export business, and
you get a fair idea of the
enormous possibilities of the
enterprise under considera-
ton.
Nothing like it has ever
been attempted or success
fully carried through in le-
ultimate merchandising; but
the founder of this NAM
moth institution has Just
brought home to his depre-
