BITY FROM HOME MERCHANTS, —The
following, which we take from the
Wingbam Times of last week, will.
perhaps, be as applicable here as else-
where : "We have frequently referred
to the subject of baying from pedlars,
but nearly every week some outsider
comes here and takes money oue of the
town by selling goods of some kind
from house to house. Recently a
young man made the rounds in a
neighboring town, selling large clocks,
and he made some sales. The price
paid was $9, and upon enquiry at a
Jewelry store, a repot ter was informed
that a similar tirne piece could be pur-
chased for *three or four dollars cheap-
er. In purchasing from a home mer-
chant the customer gets the jeweler's
guarantee, and the clock is kept in re-
pair, while on the other hand he (the
customer) gets nothing but the clock,
and, should the time piece stop, he
would have to pay the local man for
epairing it. The custom of purchasing
moods from outsiders is a detriment to
s.
the town, and in nine cases out of ten
