The Wingham Times, 1909-09-23, Page 81.F,
THINK THIS OVER l
NUM.Bn R
l t would de light the ht+a.0 to of lots of
City weenie is the beautiful stories told
in Nome mil order catalogues were
eine; that is, iY they could obtain the
•rrc!r,dert?rl prices re lemic in the small-
er placee are supposed to get, and at the
name time get style and quality. The
mail order hotteta would not need to
upend money on cittalogues or advertis-
ing. They could eell the geode right at
'*iQanfl.
Did it ever occur to you that with
style and quality lacking, it would not
ho for these firms to thew the cat-
alogue,' geode in the city? Their cue -
:tonere would have an opportunity to
extaanine before purchasing. Ia it not pos-
eible that some of the logic-prieed goode
have teen offered t:s city buyers --that
they have been weighed in they balance
and found waiting; but that a cleverly -
worded description and possibly an en -
tieing picture may be exp •'eted to get rid
of these otherwise met i<ieaale goods to
out-of-town buyers?
We do not mean to iatinr.tatc that it is
impossible to get geed mer(:handine from
snail order bower; That 'could not be
true. But we do sip that the better
grades will cost you just as muoh and
eonietinnee more than the name quality
would cost you right here in Wing -
ham.
Suppose, for the sake o argument,
that notwithstanding city expenses,
taxes, rents, etc., the snail ozder house
could sell se cheaply as your local mar -
chant? Even in that case would it sot
be better to buy here, where you can see
the geode, Prove exactly what you are
getting, and pay after, inetead of before
you see thea:? If you take nn article to
your hem after percl:nsir.k it from a
merchant in Wingbem, and find that it
is not the exact epode, or shape or size
you desired, it is very easy to return
and exchange it for something Suitable.
If it conies by mail you would probably
prefer to pec up with some imperfection
ea&her than go to the trouble of repack-
ing; and expressing, and then waiting for
days until it goes through the dismal
round of red tapism fn the mail order
hones, through claims departments and
checking deeartreents, perhaps necessi-
tating considerable correspondence, in
addition to the certainty of additional
mail and eepseee charges.
Have you ever considered how many
times yon have used your local merchant
as an aocommodtation? How often he
has extended credit to you or has helped
yoa to obtain peefoet satisfaction? He
helps to make your property valuable, to
support the bazaars and missions, and
generally contributes to social events.
Are these things not worth anything?
Is it not true that unless there is a very
deoidd advantage in dealing away from
home, it is your duty to spend your
money in Wingham?
We certainly believe that we have
shown not only that there is no advan-
tage iu dealing away from home, but
that there are many disadvantages. We,
therefore, ask you to be fair to the
town as well as yourself, Co-operate
with the other good people of Wingham
in making this a butter place to Iive and
do business in. Be loyal to Wingham.
Bny at home.
BABIES TEETHING TIME
IS A TROUBLO TIME.
When baby is teet " = g the whole
household is npset. .a tenders little
gums are swollen and ' .flamed, and the
poor child ofte cry day and night,
wearing the tootles tut and keeping the
rest of the fa 4f on edge. In the
homes where Baby's Own Tablets are
used there is no snob worry. The Tab-
lets allay the inflammation, soothe the
irritation and bring the teeth through
paiialesely. Mrs. Jean Boutin, St Mar-
guerite, Que., eayst—"When I sent for
Baby's Own Tablets my nine months'
