The Highest Market Price in Cash paid for Good Fall Packed Butter, in Tennets and Crocks, at Hickson & Bleasdell's Drug Store,6eaforth. W. S. ROBERTSON. Dealers in and Manufacturers of BOOTS AND SHOES SEAFORTH, ONT. We would respectfully announce to our customers and the public generally that we have concluded to DISCON- TINUE THE CREDIT BUSINESS. Oar reasons for this determination will be found felly set forth under the follow- ing headings: JE3 A_ I) ID EJ 13 T S. While doing a credit business it ik impossible to avoid contracting bad d ebts, for the reason that if credit is given. to one man his neighbor expects it also, and if refused. will be offended. When the goods are required, the cur tomer may be perfectly solvent, but. owing to Unforseen events, may be bank- rupt before the time for payment ar- rives. Every business man who does a credit business loses, annually, large BUMS in this way. These losses have to be made up by good paying customers. If these losses were not incurred -the goods could be sold at just so much less profit, as the good would not be requir- , ed to pay for goods purchased by the bad payers. We have determined to avoid these bad debts in future, and give our custotners the benefit. Nearly every business man who becomes insolvent, his bad debts were at the bottom of his misfortunes. LONG WINDED PAYERS. There is another class of customers which attach to the credit system, and which may be designated as "long winded payers." These are perfectly g odd for all they buy, but require from one to three years' time. The only way that such customers can be made to pay promptly is to sue them, and this is an alternative which no business man likes to resort to. These long winded cus- tomers are numerous, aud as the trades- man has to pay cash for his stock and w ages, on account of them, he must bor- row money with which to meet his pay- ments. For this money he must pay heavy interest. This interest he adds to his selling price, and thus, again, the prompt payer is taxed for the negligence of his longwinded neighbor. We intend to avoid this injustice in our business hereafter by requiring all to pay cash. Both the ready payer and the long wind- ed customer find the benefit of this system, as they will both get their goods cheaper. BENEFITS OF THE CASH SYSTEM. The tradesman who sells for cash and t urns over his money rapidly has always ready money on hand, and is in a posi- tion to take advantage of the hest mark- ets. Whereas, if his capital is locked up in the pockets of his customers, he is forced to buy from those who will trust him, and at their. prices. Cash purch- asers in the wholesale market can save a large percentage, and the competition in trade forces him to give his custom- ers the benefit of this saving. There is another class of customers who always infest the credit dealers, viz.: The Lazy, Thriftless, and Extrav- agant. These will purchase all you will sell them. Their intention to pay is perfectly good at the time, but owing to their unfortunate habits they never get enough ahead to pay old scores. Under the cash system these would be compelled to pay as they go, or not "go' at all. By cutting off this class also, a very great saving would be effected to the cash buyer, and, in addition, the community as a whole would be largely benefitted-. We have thus put forward a few of the many benefits which will accrue to customers from the adoption ofthe cash system. We will now state what we intend doing ourselves: FIRST—On and. after the 22nd of September ourt books will be closed, and from and after that date no credit will be given. No exceptions to this rule. SECOND.—We will mark our goods at a figure so low that no dealer who does not do a strictly cash business can - compete with us. Small profits and quick returns will be our motto. THMD—We will keep, as formerly, all grades of work, including our own manufacture. Our stock, for variety and choice, is unsurpassed. in this sec- tion of the Oountry. FOURTH --We .are detetmined to collect all o tstandine. debts forthwith and all ion -standing accounts will be placed in Co rt without further notice. 1 FIFTH—In our new departure we expect to be even more liberally sus- tained than in the past. We call upon all who pay their way, and who want to get the best 'value for their money, to aid. us in doing away with the pernici- ous credit system, by extending to. us their custom and paying their money. We will make it well worth their while to do so. MCINTYRE & WILLIS, Main Street, SEAFORTH.
