6om. Suggestion, by . Drummer on
Combating th. Evil Th.t Were Fol
lowed by an Eastern Merchant With
Qood Results.
"1 hardly fcuew the old place at
drat," remarked the drummer who was
In a small eastern town and bad drop
ped In to see Brown, the merchant.
My, but you (oiks have slicked up uie
place since 1 was last here."
'Yes; we huve organized an im
provement society lately, and were
oeen busy, 1 can tell you," replied the
merchant "It takes the women folks
to start the ball a-rolllng lu a thing
of that kind, and It bus opened our
eyes to what can be done when all
take an Interest In the work. Busl-
however, Isn't booming to any
greut extent."
Mall order people cutting Into your
trade?" asked the drummer.
That's about the size of It," sighed
Brown.
Well, lt'B a shame. You merchants
pay taxes and contribute to the sup
port of the community and are active
In building up tbe (own, but Instead oi
appreciating this fact tbe residents
send a great deal of their money to
the big city stores."
I wouldn't care so much if they
saved anything to speak of by it or If
thoy got any better goods, but they
don't."
"Of course they don't," agreed the
drummer. "I sell goods enough to
know that. Somehow people In small
towns think they can buy best through
the mall order bouses, and that Ik
where they make a big mistake."
'You can't convince 'em of that,'
said the merchant
Well, It's as Barnum used to say-
The people love to be humbugged It
Btands to reason that the mall order
houses cannot spend the millions they
do on advertising and give as much for
the money as yon fellows at home
can, and people In many localities are
waklug up to that fact ' Let me give
you a few friendly Buggestlous while
we are on this BUhject," coutlnued the
drummer. "You ought to niuke s
close study of Just what people around
here want from time to time. Never
let them ask twice for an article If you
can possibly help it This doesn't mean
that you must carry a million dollar
stock. Simply carry what you are
pretty sure will be wanted what the
mall order houses are putting out to a
certain extent. And let the community
know what you have In stock. When
they read the out of town catalogues
and sco something they want they
conclude you haven't got It, and away
goes coin that should have been spent
right here at bouie. You probably bad
the same article In Btock, and for less
money too. if you don't advertise.
you might ns well close up shop."
"Yes, I advertise occasionally," said
Brown.
"Occasionally won't do. It Is per
sistent advertising that wins out for
the mercbuut. You wnnt to spend
every dollar you can afford to ln.ntl
vertlslng In your local paper and keep
right at It. The mall order bouses lay
out thousands of dollars on pamphlets
and circulars and catalogues, and you
may be sure they are past masters In
the art of mnklng them attractive.
That's bow they get the trade they do.
You can do the Bame thing In your lo
cal paper and In other ways on
smaller scale. It doesn't cost a for
tune to get out a catalogue. It's of no
use to go on advertising tbe fact that
your name Is Brown and that you are
lolng business on a certain street
That doesu't Interest tbe general pub
ic. Give 'cm prices. Tell 'em what
'ou've got to sell. Make a certalo
lay of the week always bargain day
ind give people some reason to come
o your store. You may lose money
m the venture at first but you keep
it It aud 'you'll get big results before
ong. Let the residents here know
.bat they arc not only hurting you, but
'.ie town as well, by sending their mon
.y out of It.
"I'll consider your suggestions." said
'.ho merchant thoughtfully. "Guess I
will advertise more and try .the cats
logucs too."
That's tbe game. Let people know
iiow you feel aliout this mntter. Tut It
to them fair and square and have the
jtock to back you up. The mall order
Uouscs are draining the country of
money that should be spent st borne.
nnd It Is about time tbe resident, of
small towns reniized It Thousands of
dollars are sent away every week for
goods that could have been purchased
ehenper In the local stores. The first
duty of every good citizen Is home pro
tection. Funny tbey cannot reason II
out tbat tbe more they spend In their
own town the more money tbey are go
ing to keep In circulation there and
the more prosperous It will make th
community. Manufacturers looking for
a site on which to erect a plant are not
going to locate In a town where half
the stores har To Let signs on them
Why, If everybody traded out of town
just to save a few penntea, there
wouldn't be much left of It In a short
time. Well, good by. Brown. I'll be
around this way Boon."
It wa. two month, later when th.
drummer visited the store again. This
rime the place wa. bo crowded wttn
customers, however, that he had no
chance to bring up thit mall order mai
ter. but tbe grateful look and hearty
bandnhnke the busy merchant gav.
"Don't keep the alabaster boxes of
your love and tenderness sealed up
'til your friends are dead. Fill their
lives with sweetness, speak approv
ing, cheering words while their ears
can hear them, and their heartB can
be thrilled and made happier; the
kind things you meant to say when
they are gone, say before they go.
The flowerB you meaut to send for
their coffins, send to brighten and
sweeten their homes before they
leave them. If my friends have any
alabaster boxes laid away, full of fra
grant perfume of sympathy and af
fection which they intend to DreaK
over my body, I would rather they
would bring thein out In my weary,
troubled hours and open them, that
I may be refreshed and cheered while
I need them.
"I would rather have a plalu cof
fin without a flower, a funeral with
out a eulogy, than a life without the
sweetness of love and sympathy.
Post mortem kindness does not cheer
the burdened spirit. Flowers on the
coffin cast no fragrance back over
the weary way.
"The faults of our brothers we
write upon the sand; their virtues
upon the tablets of love and memory."-
Now is the time
to visit
