THE RETURNED GOODS NUISANCE

Much has been said about the high cost OF living
being due TO the telephone the delivery wagon, and
other conveniences, for which consumers must pay
and with a logic. though quite sufficient TO
charge up against them all present war prices
Now we have another convenience brought to at
tention, for which seems consumers must pay and
this too with the degree of logic 1t is the con-
yenence Of returned goods alone conducive

bought for keeps If proved defective. that the
buyers lookout stores improved their
methods along with policy of making good any
imperfection goods service the privilege TO

right reasonable and should be
tanned Sometimes a blemish, not perceptble at the
store shows when the goods delivered Sometimes
the mistake is the buyers but is quite honest and
