VEftNONIA KAGli On Inland Highway THE MAIL ORDER HOUSES AND THE 1'ALL TRADE These days when the products of the summer’s activities are be ini. marketed and the holidays are ap proaching constitute the harvest time of the mail order houses. They are out after the fall trade this year stronger than ever, if we are tc judge by the lavishness of their ad vertising. There is scarcely an in coming mail that does not bring The Eagle orders for advertising from mail order houses, frequently accompanied by cash, and scarcelj an outgoing mail that does not take the orders and cash back agair for all the advertising is prompltj refused. Appropos of all this, the current I icific Coast Bulletin, published by ♦.he Pacific Coast Coal company contains “The Ten Commandmenu of the Mail Order House,” which if worth reading. It is here reproduced 1. Thou shalt not have other mer- chants but us. II Covet thy neighbor’s business. and convert them to thy faith in uj and loan they copy of our catalogue. III.
