BUSINESS DEPENDS
 UPON THE SUCKERS

The mail order business is growing bigger aand bigger every day. Why? Because, as Barnum said, there is sucker born every minute.'
 A few weeks ago the Chicago House Wrecking> company of Chicago; a growing mail order concern, was pur- chased by a number of capitalists who intend to make it the largest mail order house in the world, giving the man in the country another opportun- ity to get his money down on sure thing" bargain. Some one always wins in these sure thing propositions.
 To elucidate:
 Why does a mail order concern located in a big city, with, with mil lions of consumers at its doors, refuse to sell goods over the counter to those customers? Simply because their goods will not stand comparison with the big department houses in their own town They sell to the out of town buyer because he first must send in his money and then take what he gets. Of course he is told that he can examine the goods and if they are not satisfactory, return them. But who can tell how new goods are go- iag to wear? They must be worn to find that out. In buying machinery, gasoline engines, buggies, wagons, etc. if you comply with certain conditions, you can return the article purchased inside of thirty days and get your That listens good, doesn't it? But stop. Now now, just a minute. Any buggy, engine, or machinery of any kind is pretty much on the sizzle when it won't last 30 days with ordin ary care, and that is the kind you must agree to gVe the article. But give it an extra hard run of any kinc aand it often is necessary, how long will it stand up under the strain? We are speaking now of the big mail or der houses that sell merchandise at such a low price that it seems like saving money to buy it.
 Why do the mail order houses spend millions of dollars annually in their efforts to reach the people outside of Chicago, when if you live in Chicago or1sf h,tIv because if you lived there you would insist on seeing the goods before pur chasing.
 A. T. Stewart, of New York, some of our readers undoubtly know, was the originator of the department store and made a fortune selling a little cheaper than his competitors, He did it by cutting an inch or two off suSpenders, skimping here and there and otherwise reducing the value of the article sold
 Why do you find, upon examination of the goods from mail order house that the name of the manufacturer is | very seldom if ever, to be found on it Sewing machines, and, in fact, all ma chinery and other similar articles are made by the big manufacturers, but they are made to sell very cheap | therefore must be made very cheal | and they will not risk their reputa- tiOns by putting their names on arti- cles they know are cheap. You find the name of all the manufacturers or articles that are sold at reasonable | prices, for they know that their rep | utation, which has taken years and the | expenditure of much money and effort 10 establish, will not suffer when they get a fair price for their goods, for they can put quality in them.
 Never expect to get something for nothing.
