ing sight unseen" are daily occurring
all over the country. 1t Ii only natur-
al and inevitable that such things
should happen.
Let us see what will be the effect
Of this formidable diversion Of trade,
II carried to its logical conclusion.
Nearly all the business houses of the
smaller towns will become bankrupt,
the value OF town property will de-
cline, churches and schools will re-
ceive feeble support and the towns.
instead of being centers of business
and social activity, will almost cease
to exist. The country in general win

act upon the value of farm property
by cutting OF the home market. They
will add to the taxes on lands by re-
ducing taxable values in the towns.
Surely 1t Is not to the interest of any
body, except the bloated corporations
carrying on the mail order business,
to see the towns and villages fall into
decay. A live town is not only of
value to the lands surrounding it, but
its well stocked business houses are
a convenience and benefit to the
buyer. Even IL money could, in the
long run, be saved by ordering every
thing from the city. the inconvenience
and uncertainty of it would always
make such shopping unsatisfactory.
Ordering from a catalogue 10 a leap
in the dark, except in the case Of q
few articles whose color, shape and
quality are always the same.
To the man who can soberly look
on both sides of the question and who
can put himself in the place of "the
other fellow" the query will come:
Is it best from mere whim, or even
for certainty of saving from one to
half a dozen dollars in year to turn
my back on the old, convenient ways
of doing business, and to do my part
toward running the business of my
old acquaintances and friends, and Of
destroying the value OF property in
the town where my friends live?

barbering, blacksmithing or the serv-
ing of soft drinks and ice cream may
survive, but such lines OF trade can
not sustain decent town" The
cause of this widespread loss Of busi-
ness is the aggressive and destructive
competition of the catalogue houses
In the big cities. 1t has been possible
for 40 years or more to buy OF some
houses in the cities. II one felt that
the merchants of his town were ex-
acting too much profit. but this effort
of the mail order houses to cut the
retailer altogether is a new thing. the
growth OF the past few years. Start
ing with a few lines of trade, this
form of competition has come to cover
almost everything that can be sold in
a country town and it is even asserted
that savings bank department is to
be added by one of the catalogue
houses.
The claim that the mail order
houses of Chicago are doing an an
nual business of over 5000, ,000, 900 may
seem large, but one house alone has
sold goods to the amount OF 29.000,-
900 in the past six months and is now
incubating a new plan to increase its
enormous business by selling shares
of stock to thousands of people in the
hope OF making them regular GUS
toners.
The skillfully worded advertisement
and the big catalogue, with its pic
lures OF articles in hundred lines of
trade, are very alluring to buyers.
most of whom are not familiar with
prices and qualities. Some of the
articles below the usual prices are of
an inferior quality. while the average
price is usually fully up to what would
be paid to the home dealer. Az was
shown last winter in a speech in con-
gress, articles for the mail order trade
are often misbranded at the request
OF the mail order people with delib-
crate intent to deceive. One OF the
instances given by this congressman
was OF come thousands Of finger rings

were in reality only ten.
