BARTLIFF, Baker , DOES BUSINESS ON OTHER MAN'S CASH :apital of the Mail Order House Is Furnished by Its Customers, FORKS ALWAYS ON `VELVET' Buyers Supply Money to Support Enterprises Competing With Those In Which They Are Interested. (Copyright.) It is a mighty niee thing to be able to do business on the other fellow's money, but there are few people who can do it. Probably the only busi- ness men who, as a class, are able to do this, are the mail order men in the big cities. Did you ever stop to think—you, who have ordered goods from a mail order house and there are probably few who hive not done that at some time or other—that you are supply- ing the cash upon which the mail order man is doing business? You are well aware of the fact that your cash must go with your order if you expect to receive the goods,but have you ever stopped to think what that means? Do you realise that you are supplying the capital for a business which is running sin direet competi- tion with your home merchants, up- on whose prosperity you and your fellow townsmen are dependent for a livellhood; . In Class by Themselves. There is absolutely no other class of nven who do business on the capt-, 411 furnished by their customers. Even. the retail store which sells for cash only cannot do this for he must carry a large stack and in most cases Must pay cash for it in order' to get prices that will enable him to make tower prices to his customers.. than can be made by the merchant who ,•,,'. '"i W.4 .i+TCr$. The mail order man doesn't need to have any of his min capital in- vested Ili his business—or any large amount of it, at least, in proportion to the volume of the business whIoh lie does, He doeso e. n t have to pay interest to the banks on money bor- rowed to help him finance his busi- ness. The mail order man figures that about one-half of the amount he receives on any order goes to the wholesaler or manufacturer in Pay- ment for the goods 'ordered, Of the remainder a Part goes for postage, printing, maintenance of office and plant, insurance, etc, What.is left, which is by no means an insignificant part of every dollar received, goes into dividends to stockholders in the mail order corporation. All this has been done without, any capital other than that which may be required to pay odlces es Suppose,expensfor a'. mifluto, that you did business with the local merchants on the same plan. Suppose that they did not carry any goods in stock, that when you wanted to buy something you should go to one of your home merchants, look in his catalogue and pick out an article that seemed to be similar to the one that -you wanted, hand over the price as shown by the catalogue and tell him to order it for you. The merchant would take your money and you would wait for your goods until they arrived from a dis- tant city. Not So Anxious. But the people who make up any community are not nearly as anxious to furnish capital to the home mer- chant—the man who helps "make" the town—as they are to the mail order man in the far distant city, who does nothing and cares nothing for the people who furnish him the looney on which to do business. They insist that the home merchant shall carry a large stock of goods from which they can select what they wish, when they think it is to their interest to buy from him. They insist that he shall stand back of the goods he sells and make good any defect that may appear In thein. They insist that ire sisal] sell then( what 'they wish and wait for ,the money until they get ready to pay it. They insist that he shall sell goods at the same prices or lower prices than the mail order houses charge for goods of poorer quality. And finally, they insist that the home merchant shall furnish the large amount of capital that is re- quired to conduct a business on this plan. The mail order buyer may say that he has the right to spend his money anywhere he pleases and he has, legally. But he probably has never stopped to reflect on the fact that he is supplying the capital for the oper= ation of a concern which is in direct competition wth enterprises in which he ,is .directly interested, for every man,' woman and child in a town is directly interested in the success of the buainebs enterprises in that town. If these business enterprises are not prosperous, the town cannot be pros- perous. To supply capital to your competitor is not very good business, PRIVATE GREETING CARDS With your name printed on them, are nice to send to your friends at Christmas.
