The Guardian does not pretend for one moment that the merchants of Pince Ed~ ward Island can compete in every instance with the foreign Mail Order Houses. There are exceptional cases, as has been shown, where a sprat is dangled to catch the whale of an order. There are others, particularly with a new customer, where the Mail O:-der, House will go to any amount of trouble to satisfy a customer at a price ith"at simply could not be duplicated. The Mail Order Houses are the most business-like people imaginable. They ex- ist to serve and satisfy their customers and to do business. Business is their motto. and they realize that one dissatisfied cus- tomer may cost them a hundred others. they aim to please. But to the man who understands human nature this is an easy matter. For one pe"- son who complains and finds fault there are ninety and nine who take their purchases philosopliically, and though they may dis- cover they have bought a pig-in-a-poke once in a while, they raise no kick and make the best of their bargain. They would as soon return the goods as unsatisfactory as l.he_v would ask the return of their col- lection because the sermon displeased them. Thi- Mail Order people are psychologists. it is their business to be; so they freely and os.teiil.atiot_isly offer to take back any p;ootl:>°. that do not meet with approval, and not one per cent. of their customers take ad- vantage of the offer. Rather than he both- '/J ~ ... ered writing and explaining, rather than take the trouble of re-'mailing the goods, they resolve to _make the best of what l.hey’ve got, especially if one article in the order be cheaper than the store price at lionic. To save one ten-cent piece they will cheerfully put up with what they have got in the other purchases. 'l‘he lnindredth customer is more partic- ular. She is usually a shrewd buyer. If the goods received are not to her liking she will return them again and again, and rath- er than earn her displeasure the Mail Order House will send her an article of much greater value than listed in the catalogue. 'l`lien she becomes a walking advertisement of the Mail Order House and rcpays in this way the loss which the Mail Order House suffered through her importunity. The, Guardian wishes to emphasize that it does not expect anyone to spend their money in the province if they find that they can buy better, cheaper and to more advan- tage outside. All.'l‘he Guardian asks is that, in their own interest, purchasers should compare prices before mailing their ord€I‘. ~ It has been shown conclusively that a $37.00 mail order for household dry goods, --women’s and children’s clothing,- was executed here 12 per cent. cheaper than it could be through a foreign Mail Order House. " The Guardian now goes farther and will prove that in groceries the Islander can do better at home. Lest there might be any question,-and people have questioned The Guardian’s facts,--in the present instances we shall give names. The Guardian took a Toronto Mail Order catalogue,-the very latest,-selected a family order such as would most aptly be imported,--and sent to Messrs. Jenkins & Sons to be made up as an ordinary cash purchase. The result is as follows, and The Guardian asks Mail Or- der patrons to verify the prices for them- selves: L Klziil Order. _lrnk_ins.
