TSAFE WAY

Many housewives prefer to hep the washing rn
the home. This is the Fele and sanitary way.
Clothes sent out to be washed are mixed with
everybody's, and come in contact with con.
Laminated linen. Also by keeping the washing
in the home you can supertise it closely and often
prevent the ruin of some delicate garment. Clothes
last much longer when washed in the home.
With t Time
Saver Electric War you can easily get all the washing
done in your own home. It saves three whole hours
on wash day and snakes the :day an easy one. )Fath

Capital of the Mail Order House

WORKS ALWAYS ON 'VELVET'

It is A mighty nice 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 bust-
ness men who, as a class, are able
to do this, are the mall order ?mete 111
the big cities. X
Did you ever stop to think --you,
who have ordered goods from a mail
order house and there are probably
few who heze not done that at some
time or other—that you are supplying
the cash upon which the mail order
man is doing busipess2 You are well
aware of the fact that your cash ncust
go with your order if you expect to re-
ceive the goods, but, have you ever.
stopped to think what that means? Do
you realize that you are supplying the
capital .for a business which is run-
ning in direct competition with your
home merchants, upon whose prosper-
ity you and your fellow townsmen are
dependent for a livelihood?
The majority of mail order houses
do not carry Iarge stoeits of goods,
They do not have to. When the mail
order man gets your order, accom-
panied by the cash, of course, he can
take a part of your money and go to
the manufacturer or the wholesaler
and buy the article that Is wanted, The
rest of the money he can put down In
his pocket after paying his operating
costs, winkle are light when compared
with those of the merchant who must
carry a large stock of goods to meet
the demands made upon him,
in Class by Themselves.
There is absolutely no other elass ot-
men who do business on the .capital
furnished by their customers. Even
the retail store which sells for cash
only cannot do this for he must carry
a large stock and In most cases me "t
pay eash for it in order to get prices
that will enable him to make lower
prices to his customers than can be
made by the merchant who gives credit
to his customers.
The mail order man doesn't need to
have any of his own capital invested
In his business --or any large amount
of it, at least, in proportion to the vol-
ume of the business which he does. He
does not have to pay interest to the
banks on money borrowed to help bim
finance his business. -The mail order
man figures that about one-half of the
amount he receives on any order goes
to the wholesaler or manufacturer in
payment 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 of-
dce expenses.
Suppose, for a minute, 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,
Wand 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 mall order
man in the far distant city., who does
nothing and cares nothing for the peo-
ple who furnish him the money 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 end make good any
defect that may appear in them. They
Insist that lie shall sell them 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 mall order
houses charge for goods of poorer qual-
ity. And anally, they insist that the
home merchant shall furnish the large
amount of capital that is required 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, legal-
ly. But he probably has never stopped
to reflect on the fact that he Is supply -
Mg the enpltnl for the operation of a
concern which is in direct competition•
with enterprises to whlell he is directly
Interested, for every man, woman and
And In a town Is directly interested In
the success of the business enterprises
to that town. If these business 'enter,
prises are not prosperous, the town
eannot be prosperous. To supply eapi•
tat to your competitor is n8t very good
