Substitution Made Easy.


Substitution Is made easy for the
mail order houses, also, by the fact
that they do not sell much Of what Is
known as ADVERTISED goods-that ls
goods that have been thoroughly adj
vertised by the manufacturers and
have become nationally known through
such advertising. A large part Of the
merchandise which the mail order
houses sell purports to be manufac-
tured by them--although In most cases
little Of 1t Ia made In their own plants.
Much Of this merchandise bears only
the name Of the mail order house and
1t Is easy to substitute one article for
another without the customer being
any the wiser.
The methods Of the home merchant
naturally are different. With the great
development of advertising In recent
years much Of the merchandise carried
by the retail merchant is "advertlsed''
goods. These goods are Of familiar
brands, the names Of which have been
made famous by the national advertis-
ing OF the makers. This advertising il
distinct protection to the buyer for
the latter knows when he goes into his
local store and asks for an article Of
this kind that no will get just what he
asks for II the merchant has II In
stock and that he Will be told II the
article Is not In stock. There Is abso-
iutely no opportunity for the merchant
to put one over" on him, even II the
psEShsRs Aed tha inclination Il "a -
