CHANGE -IN- BOINESS METHODS .Notw thstanding the fact that during the past 25 year there have taken place, in nearly every branch pf industry, a great many changes sug- gested ;by the altered - circumstances of our rapidlyideveloping country, the system of mer- chandie6ng, despite the changed condition of the people financially, is virtually the same now as it was then. That a change in this branch is demanded, may he noticed by the spirit of un- rest and dissatisfaction, which is making itself manifest in the formation of societies and unions having for their objeet the introduction of changes compatible with our newer .conditions. Recogaizing fuliy the importance of the prin- ciple apocated by these societies, viz., that he who pays as he goes should enjoy an advantage over him who does not, we have decided to make elle change fromthe old system to the new, capfident that such change will be warmly weicom'ed by the whol+ornmunity as a move in the OW direction. NOW r WORD AS TO OUR .I9Y STEM : As in imated, prompt payment is the essenti- al feature. To 'put this within the reach -of the great majority eggs and butter will be taken at actual (nosh value and treated as cash. All goods will be told on a small advance on cost. This will sectire all the privileges of a society without joining lit and without submitting to the dicta- tion of ethers. Our profits under this system. being 84 small we shall be obliged to largely in- crease qur sales, and we confidently expect the support of the whole community for a system which l4a8 for its object the supplying of mer- chandi at a slight advance on wholesale prices. This sy tem of prompt payment prices will take effect o4i the 165h inst., and will make a marked differen e in the prices of nearly every article in ourest4blishruent. Commending this to your careful ,ondsideration and respectfully soliciting a trial cIJ, I beg to remain, Yours Truly, 0.
