HINTS ON BUYING

Buy to last, even though you are last
to buy.
Do your buying where you do your
borrowing.
1t is easy to make a cheap price on
an imitation.
Leave something to your children
besides a catalogue.
The concern with poor goods is
glad to talk price.
Prove all things; hold fast to that
which is good.
You can wear out quality; you will
throw out trash.
Better brag that a thing is good
than that it was cheap.
Make your house look like a home,
not like a warehouse.
1t is better to buy a good thing once
than a cheap thing twice.
No man can fool you on the price of
a thing you know is good.
The man who builds with mail order
lumber must expect to die young.
Now you think what it cost; soon
you will wonder how it will wear
A good article is always cheap; it Is
seldom that a cheap article is good.
Before you buy, know something
about an article besides the price.
Don't you wish you could sell the
lame horse to some fellow by mail?
The proof of the pudding is in the
eating thereof-not in eating the price.
What will you care what the price
was when the cheap chair comes
apart?
When you buy without seeing you
are no better off than any other blind
man.
If price is the first thing you think
of, remember it is the first thing you
forget.
You would hate to have your law
suit tried by men who believe a mail
order catalog.
IL the thing that is cheaper were
Just as good" it wouldn't have to be
cheaper.
The fellow who buys from a mail
order house is the m fellow who
stays for the concert.
Better buy a few good things each
year than have to replace a lot of
cheap ones yearly.
The heirlooms handed down by your
grandmother were not bought from
a mail-order house.
Don't say you can do better in Chi
cago until you have found out what
you can do at home.
Cheap goods are not the best to
buy; the best fruit doesn't hang on
the lowest branches.
The real homemaker is prouder Of a
few good things than she ever would
be of a lot of poor ones.
Don't be satisfied merely to inquire,
What will 1t cost me?" Ask also,
How will 1t last me?"
The medicine wagon, the mail-order
house, the circus peanut seller-there
will always be a few men who make
their living that way.
