You'll Better Understand Then Why They Sell a Beautiful Piano for $290 That Up-town Retailers Must Ask $400 For. The writer of this advertisement had occasion recently to hear two little boys talking ice cream. Now, this is a subject of which the writer, himself, is much interested, and naturally wanted to hear what the boys had to say. It seems the finest ice cream parlor in this big town doesn't give as much ice cream for the money as some of the other parlors do, and herein lay their criticism. The writer investigated the facts and found the boys were correct. The best-fitted parlor gave smaller measure, but the plainer parlor, gave more ice cream and more cake. The owner of the first place relied on his location his swell fixtures his long-established reputation and a whole lot of other phantoms of trade, but he forgot the mainspring of modern merchandis ing that people go into an ice cream parlor for ice cream.
