The most successful men in the% mercantile trade are men who conduct a
strictly cash business. Why? in the first place, they know exactly where they
are at all the time. They can Pay all their bills, and take all discounts with the
cash, But a merchant with five or six thousand dollars lying around the coun-
try, and he that amount short to meet his payments, he must borrow, and that
costs money. As a result, he cannot put the goods over his counter as cheaply
as he would like to, and nothing like as cheap as though he *ere getting the
cash Or its equivalent in produce.
As an example, just notice some of the largest Stores in Canada and the
United States—Toronto, HaMilton,' Montreal, Buffalo, New York, Chicago, and
hundreds of towns of less importance—all have their cash stores. These are
the places you read about, and these are the *people who give you gools at the
closest possible price, because it is a spot cash business. You cannot get Eve
cents' worth without thesash in any of these first -Class big business places.
"Assiwww,AAAAAAN~AAAAAA
Why can a cash store sell
cheaper than the old way?
1st—They make no losses from bad accounts.
2nd—They get casli for everything, and pay cash for everything,
3rd—They have no expenses of book-keeping, postage or (Jupiter&
4th—They can afford from 8 to 10 per cent. lower, and sleep better at nights.
5th—They don't have to make one man pay what another can't or won't.
