Dear Sir::--l have always heard

reSpecters of persons, but that every
body vas treated alike and ! am
somewhat astoniShed that a man
whose liberty calls for a S., 900 bond
and who refuses it, is permitted to
spend his time in a hotel not lock-
ed.up in Jail as a poorer and less
known man accused on much less
grounds would be.
Had this been some poor clerk
accused of pilfering the cash drawer
for few dollars and had he enough
money to pay for hotel accommoda-
tions while waiting to be released,
do you suppose he would have been
permitted to have spent his money
in hotel? Never, in a thousand

. Al MAIL ORDER DEAL

We have been an inSiStent believer
III trading with home merchants,
You can see what you buy, get what
youswant, and cause a larger circula
ton OF your money at home. One
of the most striking and pointed il
luStrationS of the advantage of buy
ing at home is gwen in the following,
copied from the Sample Case. 1t is
an interesting story:
Down in Oklahoma the other day
a man went into a store to 0uy a
saw. He saw the kind he wanted
and askeaa the price. 1t was 81 .65
the dealer said.
Good gracious, said the man.
i can buy the same thing from
Sears, Roebuck and company Tor
1885,"
That's less than it cost me,
said the dealer, "but III sell it or
the same terms as the mail orde
house just the same"
" Alright" said the customer
, "You can send it along and charge
tito my account -"
Not on your life, p" the deale
said. mo charge accounts Yol
can't do buSinesSp itA tha mail or1e
house that way. Fork over tn
cash."
The review. [volume] (High Point, N.C.) 1908-19??, 1912-01-19

The customer compiled.
Now 2 cents postage and5 cents
for money ordef.9
What"
Certainly, you have to send a
letter and money order to a mail
order house, you know. !"
The customer inwardly raving.
kept TO his agreement and paid the
nickel.
Nov Csc for expressage.
Well, I'll swigger," he said, but
paid it saying: Now hand me that
saw ami I'll take it home myself and
be lid of this foolery."
Hand it to YOU'D Where doyou
think You are? You are in Okla
homa and Pm in Chicago, and you
will have TO wait two weekc forthat
saw"
Whereupon the dealer hung the
saw on a peg and put the money in
his cash drawer.
That makes S1.67,' he said.
1t has cost you two cents more and
taken you two weeks longer to get
it than if you had paid my price in
the first place"
That story is not an exaggeration,
as any one who has kept a strict
account sof mail order house trans
actions, will agree. Ii not only
costs more in the long run and in
the sum total, but it wastes d lot of
time. 1t takes as long to write tile
order, 90 to the postofflce and gel a
money order and mail it as it would
to 90 to your nearest dealer and buy
it outright and carry it home with
you.
Hand your cash business to your
local merchant. You expect him to
accommodate YOU when your f.
nanceS are close-and he does. He
spends his profits at home, pays
city, county and state taxes, license
taxes, purchase taxes, interest a
tie local banks, rents, clerk hire
etc, and helrs support the school:
and churches. You can't get alons
without him, and nine times out c
ten you will get better goods anc
save money by trading with him.
