is coming through advertising di-
rect. There are also numerous cheaI
Swiss watches imported, and you DC
not know what you are getting till il
is too late.
Your home merchant can stock
the unreliable goods and offer them
to you for less than the price you

for he dares not offer it to you. You

crate under one name till they make
failure, and reorganize and operate
under another.
