Yes," remarked the country mer chant to the newspaper reporter, ,;I have a snap. The wholesalo houses sends me duns every month aud draws on me at sight, but if I send a bill to a farmer he comes in swearing mad and quits trading at my store. While I am hard up for ready monoy many of those who owe me are sending oash in advance to mail order houses. If I contribute money to auy cause people say I am bidding for trade; if I don't they say I am a hog. Every day I am expected to dig up for everything that comes along, from a rnflle ticket to a church fund by people who say I ought to do this because they do part of tholr trading here. But my friend. Mont gomery Ward neither buys radio tick ets nor help the church fund, and yet he gets the cash in advance business and if I were to circulate a subscrip tion paper among the sale houses where we trade I would get the horse laugh proper. If I sell a pair of pants I must treat the family to candy aud cigars, if I buy a lead of potatoes I must do the same thing. Customers who nre able to pay hang onto their money w hile I pay ten per cent at the bank to get ready cash. I have a big business dur ing hard times and poor crops from people who are willing to trade with me provided I can duplicate catalogue house prices anil wait until after their bat vest for my money. My scales weigh too heavy when I sell sugar and too light when 1 buy butter. 1 am a thief, a liar and a grafter. If I smile I am asoftsoapy hypocritic, if I don't I am a grump. Yes, this is certainly a snap." And then lie looked over $10,000 worth of book accounts, all good and wondered how he could raise $350 to pay a sight draft duo tomor row. Stolen. Some Summer Snaps.
