POOR TYPE OF BUSINESS MAN
~Near Merchants" That Are Constant

nothing out of business themselves
and are permitting no one else to.
They might be very sptly termed
tired" merchants. meaning those who
have left other occupations and taken
up merchandising with the idea that
here Is easy work and easy money
The lack of previous training of this
class. together with its almost invali

ability. is responsible for many of the
shoals and sand bars of business navi

condescending and supercilious air

won't get mad. Experience will make
him tame long enough to eat out OF

In the meantime business Is dis
turbed; the other dealers are able to
hold their trade on account OF their

because Of their better assorted
