Buying Away From Home
(Brattleboro Reformer)

1t is one of the queer things of life that
many people like to buy goods at long
distances from their own homes. They
seem to regard shopping as one of the
diversions of an outing trip. They scat
ter their money about at one place or an.
other, regardless of whether they know
anything about the stores they are pat
ronizing. Thus they help every town ex-
cept their own.
OF course the merchants of any COM
munity gain as we'll as lose by this habit.
Ii they lose home trade that should be-
long to them, they get trade from visit
ors from other places. But it remains
true that the places where there is a
strong sentiment of loyalty to home en-
terprises are the ones that go ahead.
1t is great thing to know personally
the reputation of the merchants with
whom one is dealing. The stores in
distant city may look attractive seen
from the outside. But they may have a
persistent habit of working off second
grade goods. The prices seem low, but
just the same things could be bought
at home for the same money if you told
your merchant you would put up with
second grade article.
The people who buy away from home
often pay much more than they need to.
Ihey pay for style, elaborate systems of
display, high cost real estate and over
head charges. You can't get something
for nothing.
There are bargains to be had regularly
in any store, from New York down to the |
smallest village. They are produced by |
changes of seasons and styles, overstocks
and such regular causes. You can get
them at home just as we'll as anywhere
else. The best of them are advertised In
this paper. BY taking the home bargains
you are running no chances, as you know
from long acquaintance the character of
The merchants with whom you are deal.

Ancient Chinese Used Commas

As early as 1884 before Christ the
compass was known in a crude way
to the Chinese and it was used by them
for purposes of navigation as early as
the third century of the Christian era
But the policy of the rulers and the
habits and character of the people con-
spired to render the Chinese Indifferent

come of the great Importance to them
that 1t did to the seafaring nations of

FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE.
Trade Unionism Prevails Against Long
Hours and Low Wages.

Trade Unionism Prevails Against Long
Hours and Low Wages.
That trade unionism Is first line OF
defense against long hours and low
wages is the testimony of the sur
vey report on Industrial conditions In
Springfield, ILL.,, made by the depart
ment of surveys and exhibits Of the
Russell Sage foundation. The evidence
is offered iii the calm language of
nonpartisan statement Of fact. Inves-
tigators from the New York headquar-
tiers of the foundation collected the
original data, and half score of ex-
perts collaborated in checking the re-
suits and preparing the recommends
lions.
The full report will say, among other
things, that the investigation revealed
Shorter hours as the rule In union
shops" Among employees in thpse
shops, for example, "a per cent had an
eight hour day, while In the unorgan-
lied establishments only per cent
worked eight hours or less. Only Is
per cent of the men in the union
shops moreover, worked ten hours as
compared with 81 per cent in the nom
union work places. These figures tend
strongly to support the trade unionists'
point that organized workers are able
to gain, and do gain, for themselves
advantages which workers acting In
diyidually do not enjoy, and they re-
flute the claim of many employers
who oppose organization Of their work.
ers that they voluntarily grant all Of
the benefits which employees might
secure through the union.
