SCOTT & BOWNE, Chemists, New York.
His Duties Are to Protect Large Con
eerns from Imposition on. the
' Fart ot Cnknonn Cus
tomers. The functions of a credit man are not
generally known to the public, but he is
in many respects the most important
person employed by a mercantile con
cern. Briefly, he is supposed to be in
formed concerning the commercial
standing' of every firm or individual
with whom his own house has any deal
ings. He is a kind of walking- ''Brad
street's," and the firm for which he
works has the exclusive benefit of his
investigations, his knowledge and his
experience. It does not trust to him
alone, of course, because in the ease of
a large house there would be rath'
more than he Could attend to. The regr
lar mercantile agencies are depended
upon for a certain amount of informa
tion, usually that which concerns the
oldest and richest corporations, about
whose solvency there is commonly 110
question. The credit man may, however,
if his employers suspect a necessity for
it, be called upon to probe still further
than the regular agencies go, in order to
make assurance doubly sure.
When a would-be buyer from some re
mote part of the country presents him
self to a firm to which he is entirely un
known, he is introduced at once to the
credit man. The latter receives what
ever credentials the stranger has to
offer, and if he is satisfied that the
house will run no risk in selling to him
he states the fact, and his judgment is
accepted. Various considerations de
termine the amount of security which
a new customer is required to show,
and not infrequently it is stipulated
that he shall have a real estate backing
which is known to be responsible. The
credit man also figures out at once the
largest amount of credit which can be
granted to the new buyer, this being de
termined according to the iigure at
which he is rated. - ,
Subsequently, as he runs up bills for
goods, tbey all pass under the credit
mans watchful eye, and if it is found
that the customer is close upon his
credit limit the last purchase is often
held until it is proved to a certainty that
its delivery will entail no loss to the
firm. This process of keeping track of
every buyer s limit imposes a never-
ending task upon the credit man, and
it is one which requires delicate hand
ling, too. While great caution is nec
essary, there must be as few needless
suspicions as possible, for these are
often the means of driving away per
fectly trustworthy customers, who feel
themselves insulted by the reflection
upon their financial methods.
In cases where there is good ground
for believing that a customer will bear
watching the credit man's investiga
tions are very thorough. He inquires
as to the private affairs of the buyer in
question; finds out as nearly as possi
ble the amount of his income, and how
his money is invested, and keeps an
eye as well upon the way in which he
lives and spends. With every precau
tion, however, there are many losses,
and it is the business of the annual con
vention of credit men to discover bet
ter ways each year of protecting mer
cantile interests. N. Y. Tribune.
LAUNDRESS TOOK THE HINT.
Made a Buttonhole Large Enousrn (or
the Soldier's Improvised Button.
The private soldiers' washing at a
home station is usually done by fhe
married soldiers' wives, who are ex
pected to sew on missing buttons and
do general repairs. Patrick MeGinnis,
says the Troy Times, had a good deal
of trouble with his laundress. Sunday
after Sunday had. his shirt come back
with the collar button off or else hang-
ng by a thread. He had spoken to hei
on the subject, and she had promised
to see to it, but still the buttons were
always missing. One Sunday he got
out. of patience when a missing button
had made him lata for church parade.
"Bad luck to the woman!'' he ex
claimed. "Beerorra, I'll irive her a hint
this time, anyhow!" He thenHook the
lid of a tin blacking box about three
inches in diameter, drilled two holes in
it with a fork and sewed it ori the shirt,
which he sent to be washed. When his
washing1 came back he found his laun
dress had taken the hint. She had
made a buttonhole to fit it!
