SAVE MONEY 1V BUYING
TOM YOUlt LOCAL DKALKIt
When I learned that some thrco
hundred persons had purchased
blankets from an agent of a Kansas
City house, and had Investigated the
prices paid, I determined to know how
much difference thoro waa botwecn
his prices and the prices that tho samo
goods could bo bought for from our
local dealers, nnd to my grrfat sur
prise found that tho Identical samo
blankets and perhaps a little better
could bo bought right at homo and
for a little less money. I do not cry
out against people buying as cheaply
as thoy can nnd mako tho dollar go
aa far ns possible. Our local mer
chants ought to havo the preference
unless thcro Is a saving worth while
and by all moans when we can buy for
the samo money or a llttlo choipor,
the money ought to stay nt homo.
Don't bo too ready to buy every tinio
nn agont comes to your door. Tnko
timo at least to investigate for I nm
sure that in this particular caso mon
ey could hnvo been saved by buying
at home, nnd I think on Just ns good
termo.
I might add hero, too, that If wo
wr.uld do all our business with our
local merchants on the same basis
tl at It Is carried on with the fore'p'i
mall order houses that tho prices
could bo very nearly, If not entirely,
duplicated. It is worth thinking
about anyway.
