The experi- ment will be interesting, at least, and the answer that you receive may cause you, to give a little thought to the difference between trading with the mail order house in• some far-off city and buying from the merchants in yowr own home town, Seine mail order concerns are now operating a so-called credit system, but it is not a credit system such as is maintained by most retail mer- chants. These mail order houses will sell certain merchandise on the in- stallment plan, but they not only de- mand an initial cash payment, but re- quire the purchaser to sign a con- tract which operates as a mortgage not only on the merchandise pur- chased, but upon any other property that the customer may possess. There is nothing In this system that bears any similarity to the open credit sys- tem that is used by the majority of retail merchants. There are seine other requests you might make of the mail order man when the occasion arises and the re- sponses might be equally interesting.
