A seller who looks to his custom-
ers' as well as to his _own interest
_would therefore al
H
lpreciate the
,chi-lnge. lit the buyer should oven
iiiiore. The asking of a discount, the
ldunnini; if be happens to bc short in
cash, are ns has been said distaste-
ful niirl dciueailing to him. But. there
its a larger matter to be considered,
'one which must at some time or an-
lother have forced itself upon every
married man. The credit. system is
really a bane. To the wage-earner
and his family it is, of course, an
easy way to do the household busi-
ness. But. in that very coolness lug
its danger. The.quickness with which
accounts run up when the family
know that all they have to do is to
go_ to the store and order what they
wish is notorious. The result is
that the wage-earner has no way of
knowing whether or not he fs keeping
within the limit of his means. Often
he finds it impossible to do so, and
has to face the next year (and often
years) hampered and depressed by un-
paid bills. V
'I believe that your change, gentle-
men, will meet witb the approval of
the wage-earners of this city and
province. We are all beginning to
appreciate the fact that we can get
along well enough with whatweare
able at the time to pay lor, and that
for what we cannot, we can do with-
out.. Support will come to you when
it is realized, as it will be, that
your system means-"One Price,"
low:-r than present prices for the rea-
sons given above; and "Cash Down,"
which will put a stop to extrava-
irauce and enable each head of thc
family to know just where hs is and
how far he can go.
