The happy
merchabt
Never' before in Hie liistory,
of the world has it been pos-
sible for a merchant in good
credit to do so much busrnesa
with so little !capital locked .
- up in stock. ,
One important reason for tlo
present prosperity is, that in-
stead of having to buy a big
stock at the beginning of
each season, he is now able
to buy small stocks and re-
plenish them promptly by,
Long Distance.
Keep your customers for
miles around coming to you
for whatever they need. In-
vnt ways of inducing them
to 'visit your store or to or-
der from you by Long Dis-
tance and — they tell us
—you will not be seriously,
bothered by competition.
Long Distance it making
happy merchants in some
towns. Don't everiook Its
